YAY DEVO! :D
Trent Reznor is better nowadays writing music for the film industry. I get bored with all the doom and gloom. ;)

I'm on a NIN bender again.

"The 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 and he is broken and sore
the me that you know doesn't come around much
that part of me isn't here anymore
all pain disappears it's the nature of my circuitry
drowns out all I hear there's no escape from this my new consciousness
the me that you know used to have feelings
but the blood has stopped pumping and he's left to decay
the me that you know is now made up of 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 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
goddamn this noise inside my head -

"Heresy"
He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
He's got the answers to ease my curiosity
He dreamed a god up and called it Christianity
Your god is dead and no one cares
If there is a hell I'll see you there
He flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
He made a virus that would kill off all the swine
His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
Demands devotion atrocities done in his name
Your god is dead and no one cares
Drowning in his own hypocrisy
And if there is a hell I'll see you there
Burning with your god in humility
Will you die for this? -

"God Given"
Hey man, please don't make a sound
Take a look around, can't you see what's right in front of you?
Have a little taste, no more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause it's all coming down right now
How hard is it to see?
Put your faith in me
I sure wouldn't want to be praying to the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And it gives us sight
And we see the light
And it burns so bright
Now we know we're right
And His Kingdom come
And Thy will be done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
I would never tell you anything
That wasn't absolutely true
That hadn't come right from his mouth
And he wants me to tell you
Wait, step into the light
How can this be right?
I'm afraid we're going to ask you to leave
This you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into the Promised Land
This is just another case
You people still don't know your place
Step aside, out the way, wipe that look off your face
'Cause we are the divine
Separated from the swine
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And it gives us sight
And we see the light
And it burns so bright
Now we know we're right
And His Kingdom come
And Thy will be done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
I would never tell you anything
That wasn't absolutely true
That hadn't come right from his mouth
And he wants me to tell you -

Love NIN. Got into them pretty late.
Downward Spiral is a great album, but Right Where it Belongs is my fave. It fitted perfectly what I felt when I was thinking about leaving.
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see? -

NIN is awesome. Pretty Hate Machine got me through the remainder of my JW days. Flat_Accent, "Right Where it Belongs" is one of my favorites too.

don't know how i missed this thread.
probably one of the biggest fans.
seen them live during with teeth tour and lights in the sky tour.
"how to destroy angels" is also very good.
i collected all the cd's he had from halo1 to halo2+? trent is a excellent business man. 20+ dollars a cd X 20+ cd's. and alot of the songs were remixes. and not good ones.
it was the bridge from nirvana to nin that got me free of the JWs. nirvana wsa the teenage frustration and nin was breaking the control.
i didn't like "ghosts" much. too much repetition.
i am likeing "the fragile" album lately. please, somewhat damaged, we're in this together now
some of the best driving music out there i find.
good to see all the fans raise their hands.

I actually like the Ghosts, strymeckirules. I listen to them when I'm reading sometimes, or when I'm driving late at night thinking about things. Not all of them are good, but I generally enjoy them. I also own the entire NIN discography collection.
