Nine Inch Nails

-Something I can never have-

(still)

I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head ‘till I don’t want to sleep
Anymore

You make this all go away
You make this all go away
I’m down to just one thing
And I’m starting to scare myself
You make this all go away

You make this all go away
I just want something I can never have

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn’t do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Gray would be the colour if I had a heart

In this place it seems like such a shame
Though it all looks different now
I know it’s still the same
Everywhere I look you’re all I see
Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be

-Nine Inch Nails-

And all that could have been

Breeze still carries the sound
Maybe I’ll disappear
Tracks will fade in the snow
You won’t find me here

Ice is starting to form
Ending what had begun
I am locked in my head
With what I’ve done

I know you tried to rescue me
Didn’t let anyone get in
Left with a trace of all that was
And all that could have been

Please, take this
And run far away, far away from me
I am tainted
The two of us were never meant to be
All these pieces and promises and left behinds
If only I could see
In my nothing
You meant everything, everything to me

Gone
Fading
Everything

Please, take this
And run far away, far as you can see
I am tainted
And happiness and peace of mind
Were never meant for me
All these pieces and promises and left behinds
If only I could see
In my nothing
You meant everything, everything to me
