Terrible Lie - Nine Inch Nails

Hey god, why are you doing this to me?

am I not living up to what I’m supposed to be?

why am I seething with this animosity?

hey god, I think you owe me a great big apology

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

hey god, I really don’t know what you mean

seems like salvation comes only in our dreams

I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme

hey god, can this world really be as sad as it seems

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

don’t take it don’t take it don’t

hey god, there’s nothing left for me to hide

I lost my ignorance, security and pride

I’m all alone in a world you must despise

hey god, I believed your promises, your promises and lies

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

terrible lie

(terrible lie)

you made me throw it all away

my morals left to decay (terrible lie)

how many you betray

you’ve taken everything (terrible lie)

my head is filled with disease

my skin is begging you please (terrible lie)

i’m on my hands and knees

i want so much to believe

i give you everything

my sweet everything

i give you everything (i need someone to hold on to. i need someone to hold on to)

my sweet everything (i need someone. i need someone. i need someone to hold on to)

i give you everything (i need someone to hold on to. i need someone to hold on to)

my sweet everything (i need someone to hold on to. i need someone to hold on)

i give you everything (i need someone to hold on to. i need someone to hold on to)

my sweet everything (i need someone. i need someone. i need someone to hold on to)

i give you everything (i need someone to hold on to. i need someone to hold on to)

my sweet everything (i need someone. i need someone. i need someone to hold on to)

(i need someone to hold on to)
