Nine Inch Nails

Becoming

i beat my machine
it's a part of me
it's inside of me
i'm stuck in this dream
it's changing me
i am becoming
the me that you know he had some second thoughts
he's covered with scabs he is broken and sore
the me that you know he doesn't come around much
that part of me isn't here anymore
all pain disappears
it's the nature of
of my circuitry
drowns out all i hear
no escape from this
my new conciousness
the me that you know he used to have feelings
but the blood has stopped pumping and he is left to decay
the me that you know is now made up or wires
and even when i'm right with you i'm so far away
i can try to get away but i've strapped myself in
i can try to scratch away the sound in my ears
i can see it killing away all of my bad parts
i don't want to listen, but it's all too clear
hiding backwards inside of me
i feel so unafraid
annie, hold a little tighter
i might just slip away
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
it won't give up, it wants me dead
and goddamn this noise inside my head
