Science, fascination
Sinful believers
Species in mutation
Sordid disorders

Our leaders missed the point
Forced to dominate and destroy to get what people want: a culture-coded society

Secret monster machines evolve in our spirits
Deeper in mind—digging—to find the ultimate

Deathwatch entertainment
Predictable near-misses
Is this what people want?
One blind-reflex society

The planet…
Blame us
In my time, we didn’t care enough

New world, lies are convention
High-risk policies
One speech on total power
Leading to suicide

Our leaders missed the point
Forced to dominate and destroy
It’s not what people want
It’s not what is called society

The planet…
Blame us
In my time, we didn’t care enough

I Just Made You Up to Hurt Myself

Only icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 (track 08 from the With Teeth LP by Nine Inch Nails icon-external-link-12x12 icon-search-12x12 )

I’m becoming less defined as days go by
Fading away—well, you might say I’m losing focus
Kind of drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself
Sometimes I think I can see right through myself
Sometimes I think I can see right through myself
Sometimes I can see right through myself

Less concerned about fitting into the world—your world, that is
Because it doesn’t really matter anymore
No it doesn’t really matter anymore
None of this really matters anymore

Yes, I am alone, but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell, I think maybe it’s because you were never really real to begin with
I just made you up to hurt myself
I just made you up to hurt myself
I just made you up to hurt myself
I just made you up to hurt myself
I just made you up to hurt myself

And it worked
Yes, it did

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me

Only

The tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab
And I had this funny feeling like I just knew it was something bad
I couldn’t leave it alone—picking at the scab
It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut, but I climbed through

Now I’m somewhere I am not supposed to be
And I can see things I know I really shouldn’t see
And now I know why
And now I know why
Things aren’t as pretty on the inside

There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me
There is no you, there is only me

Only
