Terrible Lie - Nine Inch Nails

Trent Reznor has long been much inspiration for me - lyrics to 'Terrible Lie' with some lines omitted.

'Why are you doing this to me?
Am I not living up to what I'm supposed to be?
Why am I seething with this animosity?
I think you owe me a great big apology

I really don't know what you mean
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 fucking seems?

don't take it away from me
I need someone to hold on to
don't take it away from me
I need you to hold on to

there's nothing left for me to hide
I lost my ignorance, security and pride
I'm all alone in a world you must despise
I believed your promises
your promises were LIES

Terrible Lie

you make 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 please
I'm on my hands and knees

I want so much to believe'
