And all that could have been ("Hapiness and peace of mind were never meant for me" makes me cry :p )

Only ("I just made you up to hurt myself" kind of reminds me of fight club =D )

This bit in Happiness in Slavery:

I don't know what I am, I don't know where I've been
Human junk, just words and so much skin
Stick my hand through the cage of this endless routine
Just some flesh caught in this big broken machine

 

09/08/08 12:10 AM

shame on us
doomed from the start
may god have mercy on our dirty little hearts

shame on us
for all we have done
and all we ever were
just zeros and ones


From Zero-Sum (my favorite song period)

Absolutely brilliant.

Non-Entity. Just pure, simple, beautiful.
Beside you in time. (we will never die, beside you in time. Has to be my fav line ever)
The Great Below. It creates such a pretty visual.
Somewhat Damaged. Just does it every time.
Heresy. For old times' sake.
Head Down. I love the contrast the chorus brings.
And all that could have been.
In this twilight.

ill start it off
Wave goodbye, To what you were, The rules have changed, The lines begin to blur, She makes you hard, It comes on strong, You finally found, The place where you belong
- [With Teeth]

This seems like a topic for NIN discussion not the collectors forum.

 

09/05/08 10:55 PM

It's a good song, what can I say?

I am a big man
(yes I am)
and I have a big gun
got me a big old Dick and I
I like to have fun
held against your forehead
I'll make you suck it
maybe I'll put a hole in your head
you know, just for the fuck of it
I can reduce you if I want
I can devour
I'm hard as fucking steel, and I’ve got the power
I'm every inch a man, and I'll show you somehow
me and my fucking gun
nothing can stop me now
shoot shoot shoot shoot shoot
I'm going to come all over you

-Right Where It Belongs

"Put my faith in god, put my trust in you. Now there's nothing more fucked up I could do."
-Wish

"Shame on us, doomed from the start. May god have mercy on our dirty little hearts."
-Zero Sum

"I'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side. But they keep waiting, and picking..."
-The Fragile

"And you could have it all, my empire of dirt."
-Hurt

"Kind of hard to see, when you crawl on your hands and your knees."
-1,000,000

-In This Twilight

"There is no place I can go, there is no way I can hide. It feels like it keeps coming from the inside."

There are a LOT more, but I'll leave it at this for now.

I looked through all these and I'm pretty surprised no one mentioned Something I Can Never Have.

I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head til I don't wanna sleep anymore

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Grey would be the color if I had a heart

In this place it seems like such a shame
Though it all looks different now, I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look you're all I see
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be...

"Seems like salvation comes only in our dreams
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme
Can this world really be as sad as it seems?"

"You made me throw it all away
My morals left to decay
How many you betray
You've taken everything
My head is filled with disease
My skin is begging you to leave
I'm on my hands and knees
I want so much to believe..."

"and did you ever really find
When you closed your eyes
any place
That was still
and at peace?"

"Can't seem to shut her legs
Our Mother Nature is a whore"

"Trying so hard to make the pieces all fit
Smash it apart just for the fuck of it"

The hottest, sexiest lyrics ever:

I want your rough house baby
I want this right in your ear
You let me feel your danger
I let you make this feeling clear here
I want the touch of your charms
The heat of your breath
I wanna say all those things
That would be better unsaid
No!
[This song is the ultimate turn-on.]

"I will use my voice, I will use my fist, to destroy everything I can"

I absolutely love the lyrics of In This Twilight.
Also We're in this Together, Somewhat Damaged, The Wretched, The Great Below.

I've edited this so many times because I keep thinking of more! Okay I have to just leave it.

^^you're so right, the lyrics to Terrible Lie are ridiculously great.
"And when the day arrives, I'll become the sky, and I'll become the sea, and the sea will come to kiss me, For I am going, Home. Nothing can stop me now"-La Mer

Both of these parts of the ruiner.
"The ruiner's got a lot to prove, he's got nothing to lose, and now he made you believe. The ruiner's your only friend, and he's the livng end to the cattle he decieves. The raping of the innocent, you know the ruiner ruins everything he see, now the only pure thing left in my fucking world is wearing your disease!

The ruiner's a collector, he's an infector, serving his shit to his flies, maybe there will come a day when those that you keep blind will suddenly realize, maybe its a part of me you took it to a place i hoped it would never go, maybe that fucked me up much more then you'll ever know!
you didnt hurt me, Nothing can hurt me,
You didnt hurt me ,Nothing can stop me now
you didnt hurt me, Nothing can hurt me,
You didnt hurt me ,Nothing can stop me now" This song is so awesome. two more

"Need you
Dream you,
Find you,
Taste you,
Fuck you,
Use you,
Scar you,
Break You,
Lose Me!
Hate Me!
Smash Me!
Erase Me!
Kill Me!
Kill Me!" Eraser rules

"He couldn't believe how easy it was, he put the gun into his face, BANG!!!
So much blood for such a tiny little hole. Problems do have solutions you know,
A lifetime of fucking things up, fixed, in one determined flash.
Everythings blue, Everythings blue in this world, The deepest shade of mushroom blue. All fuzzy, and spilling out of my head." The downward Spiral

well, okay, enough,
you've had your fun
but come on there has got to be someone
that hasn't yet become
so numb
and succumb
and
god damn i am so tired of pretending
of wishing i was ending
when all i'm really doing is trying to hide
and keep it inside
and fill it with lies
open my eyes?
maybe i wish i could try

WHERE IS EVERYBODY
Maybe the "THE BEST" lyrics but definitely one of my favorites

Without you.. without you everything falls apart
Without you.. it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces - Perfect Drug-

I used to know who I was until you came along - Home-

Won't give up, it wants me dead, Goddamn this voice inside my head -The becoming-

Like a Cancer in your system; I've got a little surprise for you - Burn-

the whole song vessel is the shit!

And if she said cum inside I would cum inside for her -Sin-

I'm drunk... and right now I'm so in love with you
And I don't seem to care too much about what I should or shouldn't do.
Lay my head on Heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars
while the devil wants to fuck me in the back of his car
Nothing quite like the feel of something new.. - The Only Time-

Now I know.. the depths I reach are limitless - Reptile-

Don't open your eyes you won't like what you see -happiness in slavery-

Personal favorites:

"Ruiner"
"Eraser"
"In This Twilight"
"Zero Sum"
"Right Where It Belongs"

I also have a huge weakness for "Sunspots":

Fuck in the fire and we'll spread on the ashes around...!

 

10/04/08 6:51 AM

In This Twilight - "All the black is really white, if you believe it"

Zero Sum
- "Shame on us, doomed from the start, May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts"

Right Where It Belongs - "And if you look at your reflection, is it all you want to be?"

The Only Time - "I'm drunk. And right now I'm so in love with you"

Hurt - "Everyone I know goes away in the end"

Every Day Is Exactly The Same
- "I can't remember how this got started, but I can tell you exactly how it will end"

 

10/04/08 6:10 PM

The best two have to be...

Everyday is Exactly the Same "I believe I can see the future, because I repeat the same routine."

and...

Zero Sum: "We will be together, if we will be anything at all."

Other good ones are:

Survivalism: "I've got my violence in high-defo-tru-realism"

Head Down: "All used up, half way through"

Starfuckers "my god comes in wrapper of cellophane"

We're in this together now: "When the world is gone we have to hold on"

The entire lyrics for Ruiner, Capitol G, Somewhere it belong, Reptile, Somewhat Damaged and probably a load more I can't think of right now.

I associate the words from Terrible lie to all the suffering of animals in this world due to humans-eg: "why are you doing this to me?" & "I think you owe me a great big apology"

A Short Collection of my favorite lines:

I listened to the words he'd say
But in his voice I heard decay
The plastic face forced to portray
All the insides left cold and gray
There is a place that still remains
It eats the fear, it eats the pain
The sweetest price he'll have to pay
The day the whole world went away

~the day the world went away

shove it up inside surprise! lies!
stains like the blood on your teeth!
bite! chew! suck! (away the tender parts)
I want to break it up I want to smash it up I want to fuck it up
I want to watch it come down
maybe afraid of it let's discredit it let's pick away at it
I want to watch it come down

~march of the pigs

go take a little more
we'll scrape you off the floor
we love you anyhow
but your not so pretty now

~not so pretty now

well i want to drink it up and swim in it until i drown
my moral standing is lying down

~the only time

put the gun
in my mouth
close your eyes
blow my fucking brains out
pretty patterns
on the floor
that's enough for you
but i still need more

~1,000,000

i believe i can see the future
because i repeat the same routine
...
sometimes i think i'm happy here
sometimes i still pretend
i can't remember how this all got started
but i can tell you - exactly - how it will end

~every day is exactly the same

now i just stare into the sun
and i see everything i've done
i think i could have been someone
but i can't stop what has begun
when everything is said and done
and there is no place left to run
i think i used to be someone
now i just stare into the sun

~sunspots

i descend from grace
in arms of undertow
i will take my place
in the great below

i can still feel you
even so far away

~the great below

I Do Not Want This.

 

10/08/08 5:56 PM

LAST

gave up trying to figure it out but my head got lost along the way
worn out from giving it up my soul I pissed it all away
still stings these shattered nerves
pigs we get what pigs deserve
I'm going all the way down I'm leaving today
come come come on you've gotta fill me up
come come gotta let me inside of you
come come come on you're gotta fix me up
come come gotta let me inside of you
still feel it all slipping away but it doesn't matter anymore
everybody's still chipping away but it doesn't matter anymore
look through these blackened eyes
you'll see ten thousand lies
my lips may promise but my heart is a whore
come come come on you've gotta fill me up
come come gotta let me inside of you
come come come on you're gotta fix me up
come come gotta let me get through to you
this isn't meant to last
this is for right now
I know it's all getting away it comes to me as no surprise
I know what's coming to me is never going to arrive
fresh blood through tired skin
new sweat to drown me in
dress up this rotten carcass just to make it look alive
come come come on you've gotta fill me up
come come gotta let me inside of you
come come come on you're gotta fix me up
come come gotta let me get through to you
this isn't meant to last
this is for right now
I wish I could put the blame on you
I want you to make me
I want you to take me
I want you to break me
then I want you to throw me away

i love the lyrics and the way it is sung...just so ANGRY AND CORROSIVE!! ILOVEIT!!!!

The Big Come Down

there is a game I play
try to make myself okay
try so hard to make the pieces all fit
smash it apart
just for the fuck of it

bye bye oooh
got to get back to the bottom
bye bye oooh
the big come down isn't that what you wanted?
bye bye oooh
find a place with the failed and forgotten
bye bye oooh
isn't that really what you wanted now?

there is no place I can go there is no way I can hide
it feels like it keeps coming from the inside

there is a hate that burns within
the most desperate place I have ever been
try to get back to where I'm from
the closer I get the worse it becomes
the closer I get the worse it becomes

there is no place I can go there is no place I can hide
is feels like I keeps coming from the inside

 

10/11/08 5:43 AM

nin sing along!

you think you have everything when i got my violence in hi-def ultra realism while they watch the sun seeing so much blood for such a tiny little hole when a devil is sleeping in my bed that is trying to tolerate me.

i won't do that again, sorry.
