Gave up Songtext

von Nine Inch Nails

[verse 1]

Perfect little dream
The kind that hurts the most
Forgot how it feels
Well, almost
No one to blame
Always the same
Open my eyes
Wake up, wake up, wake up in flames

[pre-chorus]

It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me see the light

[chorus]

Smashed up my sanity
Smashed up integrity
Smashed up what I believed in
Smashed up what's left of me
Smashed up my everything
Smashed up all that was true
Gonna smash my self to pieces
I don't know what else to do

[verse 2]

Covered in hope and vaseline
Still cannot fix this broken machine
Watching the hole, it used to be mine
Just watching it burn in my static systematic decline
Of the trust I will betray
Give it to me I throw it away
After everything i've done
I hate myself for what i've become

[pre-chorus]

[chorus]

[interlude]

I try, I gave up x8

[chorus]

[chorus]

I don't know x2

Throw it away x4
