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
And all that could have been
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
And All That Could Have Been

Great song. His emotion is really expressed in this song. Renzor is a genius!

I love this song, it makes me emotional. Yeah, since I can't stand emo music, I guess I listen to stuff like this instead.

This is easily the best NIN song out there, which is saying a lot. The emotional depth is unmatched, and you can just feel Reznor's pain. This song is very depressing, but often fits the mood I'm in. Musically, you simply just can't beat this.

If I've already commented on this song, then I'm doing it again. It's just so amazing and captivating. Probably my favorite Nine Inch Nails song. The way it starts off slow and quiet with the whispered vocals and then slowly escalates into a true work of art. The way Trent sings brings so much emotion to the song and thats probably what makes it. No less than perfect.

I've been looking for lyrics I could relate to perfectly for a long time. Finally, this song's provided me the EXACT feeling I was searching for... Once again, Trent Reznor proves to be one, and perhaps the best, of the Industrial genre artists. Two thumbs up, no doubt.
