Nine Inch Nails — Down in It lyrics

Lyrics

Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky
And I was feeling some feelings you wouldn’t believe
Sometimes I don’t believe them myself
And I decided I was never coming down
Just then a tiny little dot
Caught my eye it was just about, just about too small to see
But I watched it way too long
It was pulling me down
Shut up!
So what, what does it matter now?
I was swimming in the haze now I crawl on the ground
And everything I never liked about you is kinda seeping into me Try to laugh about it now but isn’t it funny how everything works out
«I guess the joke’s on me,"she said
I was up above it Now I’m down in it
I used to be so big and strong!
I used to know my right from wrong!
I used to never be afraid!
I used to be somebody!
I used to have something inside!
Now just this whole that’s open wide!
I used to want it all!
I used to be somebody.
I’ll cross my heart I’ll hope to die
But the needle’s already in my eye
And all the world’s weight is on my back
And I don’t even know why
What I used to think was me Is just a fading memory
I looked him right in the eye and said «Goodbye»
I was up above it Now I’m down in it
