Nine Inch Nails/Quotes
Songs
Bow down before the one you serve
You're going to get what you deserve—Nine Inch Nails, "Head Like a Hole"
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything—Nine Inch Nails, "Hurt"
The clouds will part
And the sky cracks open
And God Himself
Will reach His fucking arm through
Just to push you down
Just to hold you down—Nine Inch Nails, "The Wretched"
Please
Take this
And run far away
Far away from me
I am
Tainted
And happiness and peace of mind
Were never meant for me
All these
Pieces
And promises and left behinds
If only I could see
In my
Nothing
You meant everything
Everything to me—Nine Inch Nails, "And All That Could Have Been"
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 that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?—Nine Inch Nails, "Right Where It Belongs"
Interviews
"Self-examination with a close-up mirror in an antiseptic environment is what Nine Inch Nails is based on."
"With a Nine Inch Nails show, I'm building on a legacy that comes with a certain set of expectations. I have to push that forward, I have to reinvent myself, I have to feel current and valid."
