Trent always screams through my soul. The bastard. " ...and God himself will reach his fuckin arm through just to push you down...just to hold you down" enough already...
IMO the best NIN song of all time. The music, the lyrics, the meaning behind them. It all comes together. And it's a gut punch of a song, similar to Like a Rolling Stone. About life's disappointments, depression, unfulfilled dreams.
Just a reflection Just a glimpse Just a little reminder Of all the what abouts And all the might have Could have beens Another day Some other way But not another reason to continue And now you're one of us The wretched The hopes and prays The better days The far aways Forget it It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, did it? It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to It didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, did it? Now you know This is what it feels like Now you know This is what it feels like The clouds will part and the sky cracks open And god himself will reach his fucking arm through Just to push you down Just to hold you down Stuck in this hole with the shit and the piss And it's hard to believe it could come down to this Back at the beginning Sinking Spinning And in the end We still pretend The time we spend Not knowing when You're finally free And you could be But it didn't turn out the way you wanted it to It didn't turn out quite the way that you wanted it Now you know This is what it feels like Now you know This is what it feels like You can try to stop it but it keeps on coming You can try to stop it but
@@Starr_Apathy Yeah, I find this song encouraging because of that. Feeling down? angry that things are not going like you wanted them to? Get over it, this is what is like, this is what it feels like.
Yes.same here and each and everyday from time forced out in it until now.42 years.and still everyone around me doesn't get it and hate and Puts down the music that makes me feel good about myself is exactly the same hating and putting me down.but I need to conform to their ways.Ill definitely would of snuffed out myself if it wasn't for Trent and gang or Maynard j.keenans.not many feel the doom and gloom from the second of waking up until the last thought til sleep and we are suppose to just feel good and be positive any time you want.please!.not in my lil part in this life.i wasn't built equipped with that button.im a obsolete model I guess.
Proud no doubt about to tattoo wretched in my back I have base my entire life knowing I'm and forever accepting my outcome of my wretched life one of my favorite songs trent
Goddamn I wish these lyrics weren’t so true to me. I’m not even a big fan of this song but it always pops in my head when the absolute and complete bullshit that is my life converges on itself. Feels like a sick joke
I thought it said " The time we spent." "you find me free." "And you cut me." And you know how it has a certain effect when he sais that line and it doesn't let him completely finish the line. Yeah, lmao I thought it lined up well with " And you cut me." Anyways I always feel a connection with NIN songs. Feels great to listen to something that describes your thoughts and emotions that you find so hard to explain.
The chorus of this song is what pounding your fist into a wall while screaming at the top of your lungs until your knuckles are all bloody and your voice is destroyed feels like
the clouds will part and the sky cracks open and god himself will reach his fucking arm through just to push you own....just to hold you down no truer words have been spoken
Precious Child - To Need Hm, for once RU-vid does advertise what I need. Really resembles the Ghosts NIN. Glad to see someone doing this dark ambient style.
When you reach the end of the road. Hopefully we will get the end we have always hoped for. If not don't fear the reaper. Stair him directly in the eye and say "Do your worst chickenshit". Embrace the end of your life. Coming into this world and leaving it are the two things that unanimously connect us all together without exception. There is a time when everything and everyone we once knew fades away. Then what are we but people who have become relics out of their time.
if you listen to the "and all that could have been" live version, you can make out what he says a little better...its something along the lines of "theres is a place i used to hide. i going out of my mind. at least i tried..."
I feel like he could be making a reference in by calling out in suite dead on the weight of those whom didn't make it far enough to be challenged by the holy ghost in a sense giving welcome to the spirit that makes one holy.
Frankly, and thematically, I don't get this. Batman is the way he is because of his parents' deaths. He wants to PREVENT another "Batman" from ever happening, pretty much exactly opposite to what's described in the song. Joker is the way HE is because he's in a constant state of psychotic euphoria. If anyone Bane comes closest to personifying The Wretched. It's a neat trailer and one of my all time favorite songs, but I can think of other NIN songs that are more fitting.
I don't know. My mistake is... I think is about when you tell somebody this is how it feels like.. when you are suffering and crying telling someone you care, that's how it feels like...
I'm not a "thumbs up" person, and while I typically hate these comments, I thought that it was a cleverer-than-average comment. I generally reserve "x people" comments for when I can find something interesting to do with them, like writing "14 people SHALL NOT PASS!" on the Hobbit trailer. If you don't think my comment is funny, that's fine by me, but you clearly haven't read all of those inane "x people" comments like "10 people missed the like button" or "22 people are Justin Bieber!"
