NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS - The Wretched

"The Wretched"



just a reflection

just a glimpse

just a little reminder

of all the what abouts

and all the might have

could have beens

another day

but not another reason to continue

and now you're one of us

and god himself will reach his fucking arm through

just to push you down

just to hold you down

stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss

and it's hard to believe it could come down to thisback at the beginning

sinking

spinning



and in the end

we still pretend

the time we spend

not knowing when

you're finally free

and you could be



but it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to

it didn't turn out quite the way that you wanted it



now you know

this is what it feels like

now you know

this is what it feels like



you can try to stop it but it keeps on coming

you can try to stop it but
