Nine Inch Nails - Terrible Lie (Empathetic Mix) Lyrics

Terrible lie
Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything
Terrible lie, I give You everything

Hey God, 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?
Hey God, I think You owe me a great big apology

Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything
Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything

Hey God, 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
Hey God, can this world really be as sad as it seems?

Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything
Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything

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

Hey God, 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
Hey God, I believed that promises, Your promises and lies

Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything
Terrible lie, I give You everything
Terrible lie, my sweet everything

Terrible lie, You made me throw it all away
My morals left to decay
Terrible lie, how many You betray?
You've taken everything

Terrible lie, my head is filled with disease
My skin is begging you please
Terrible lie, I'm on my hands and knees
I want so much to believe

I give You everything
My sweet everything
I give You everything
My sweet everything
