"only" by nine inch nails

i'm becoming less defiend as days go by
fading away
well you might say
i'm losing my focus
kinda drifting in 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

less concerned about fitting into the world
your world that is
'cause 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 its 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

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 fucking you
there is only me
there is no fucking you
there is only me

only
only
only
only

well 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 its something bad
i just couldn't leave it alone
i kept picking at the scab
it was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
but i climbed through

now i am somewhere i am not supposed to be
and i can see things i know i really shouldnt see
and now i know why, oh now, now i know why
things aren't as pretty
on the inside



(thank you trent reznor, once again, for summing it all up so beautifully....)
