  • "I put my faith in God and my trust in you. Now, there's nothing more fucked up I could do! Wish there was something real, wish there was something true. Wish there was something real, in this world full of you. I'm the one without a soul, I'm the one with this big fucking hole. No new tale to tell, twenty-six years on my way to hell! Gotta listen to your big time hard line, bad luck fist fuck! Don't think you're having all the fun, you know me I hate everyone"-Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails

    Some of the saddest lyrics I have ever come across.... chilling and frail... Having a bad day? Try Trent's world...
  • "Lying to my face again
    Suicidal imbecile
    You're pounding on a fault line
    What'll it take to get it through to you precious
    Over this , why do you wanna
    Throw it away like this
    Such a mess, over this, over this"
  • hedonisthedonist Posts: 24,524
    I love how Trent's music/lyrics (as with Maynard) can either light a FUCK YOU fire under my ass, or allow me to wallow a bit - whether legitimatley self-indulgently or not.

    Both feed me so well.

    Excellent writers.

    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”


    ― Apple Inc.
