NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS - Getting Smaller

"Getting Smaller"



Getting a little erratic here

And I don't know who to trust

I guess they got a way of reading my mind

I guess I got to adjust

I've got my arms that flip flop flip flop flip

I got my head on spring

Well I thought I got you on my side

I haven't got fucking anything



[Chorus:]

I'm just a face in the crowd

Nothing to worry about

Not even trying to stand out

I'm getting smaller and smaller and smaller

And I got nothing to say

It's all been taken away

I just behave and obey

I'm afraid I am starting to fade away



Uh huh

I kind of see through the cracks when I press up on the wall

I'm not looking to stand up real high, I'd be happy to crawl

I think I'm losing my grip, but I can still make a fist

You know I still got my one good arm that I can beat

I can beat myself up with



[Chorus]



Hey, and for what it was worth

I really used to believe

That maybe there's some great thing

That we could achieve

And now I can't tell the difference

Or know what to feel

Between what I've been trying so hard to see

And what appears to be real



Fading away [x4]



[x4]

My world is getting smaller everyday

Hey hey hey hey, and that's okay
