Nine Inch Nails' "With Teeth" album cover [Formatted]

The more that we take, the paler we get
I can’t remember what it is that we try to forget
The tile on the floor is so cold it can sting
In your eyes is a place worth remembering
For you to go and take this and smash it apart
I’ve gone all this way to wind up back at the start

The closer we think we are
It only got us so far
Have you got anything left to show?
No, I didn’t think so

The sooner we realize that we cover ourselves with lies
Underneath we’re not so tough
Love is not enough

It hides in the dark like the withering vein
We didn’t give it a mouth so it cannot complain
We never really had a chance
We never really make it through
And to think I believed I could get better with you

The closer we think we are
It never got us so far
Have you got anything left to show?
No, I didn’t think so

The sooner we realize that we cover ourselves with lies
Underneath we’re not so tough
Love is not enough
