The Becoming

Nine Inch Nails

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 he is broken and sore 
The me that you know he 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 no escape from this my new consciousness 

The me that you know he 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 of my bad parts 
I don't want to listen but it's all to clear 

Hiding backwards inside of me I feel so unafraid 
Annie, hold a little tighter I might just slip away 

It wont give up it wants me dead 
Goddamn this noise inside my head
