Nine Inch Nails - The Becoming lyrics

rate me

I beat my machine it's a part of me it's inside of me<br>I'm stuck in this dream it's changing me I am becoming<br>The me that you know had some second thoughts<br>He's covered with scabs and he is broken and sore<br>The me that you know doesn't come around much<br>That part of me isn't here anymore<br>All pain disappears it's the nature of my circuitry<br>Drowns out all I hear there's no escape from this my new consciousness<br>That me that you know used to have feelings<br>But the blood has stopped pumping and he's left to decay<br>The me that you know is now made up of wires<br>And even when I'm right with you I'm so far away<br>I can try to get away but I've strapped myself in<br>I can try to scratch away the sound in my ears<br>I can see it killing away all my bad parts<br>I don't want to listen but it's all too clear<br>Hiding backwards inside of me I feel so unafraid<br>Annie, hold a little tighter I might just slip away<br><br>It won't give up it wants me dead<br>Goddamn this noise inside my head<br><br>Production: flood and trent reznor<br>Mixing engineer: alan moulder<br>Ring mod guitar: adrian belew<br>Arp 2600: flood
