The Becoming (Live) Lyrics
Trent Reznor
Trent Reznor
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 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 is 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 too clear
Hiding backwards inside of me
I feel so unafraid
Annie hold a little tighter
I might just slip away
It won't give up it wants me dead
Godd**n this noise inside my head
