The Idea of You Songtext

von Nine Inch Nails

Maybe that was somebody else
Maybe I was somebody else
I'm sorry, for what it's worth
If that means anything anymore
I think there's something just wrong
I have been wondering
When, when did you know?
You know, really know?
No, no, no, no, I don't think that's going to happen here
You missed all that on the way out
Remember, I don't wanna remember anymore
Maybe I was somebody else
Just go back to the idea of me
Just go back to the idea of me
Just go back to the idea of me
Just…

Wait
Wake
Breathe
Believe
Hey, you tell yourself…

None of this is happening

Oh and if I start to tell you anything, please don't pay attention
That's not really me in there
I would never do that
Just go back to the idea of me
Go back to that idea
Can you even hear me over here?
Everything absorbing, liquid twitching, forming something terrible
The sores are gone
And you can hardly tell now but
That was someone else who isn't here anymore

Wait
Wake
Breathe
Believe
Hey, you tell yourself…

None of this is happening

Wait
Wake
Breathe
Believe
Hey, you tell yourself…

Hey
Can you hear?
It gets
So lonely in here
