mr self destruct
by trent reznor


i am the voice inside your head    and i control you
i am the lover in your bed         and i control you
i am the sex that you provide      and i control you
i am the hate you try to hide      and i control you
i take you where you want to go
i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up
mr self destruct
i speak religion's message clear   and i control you
i am denial guilt and fear         and i control you
i am the prayers of the naive      and i control you
i am the lie that you believe      and i control you
i take you where you want to go
i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up
mr self destruct
i am the needle in your vein       and i control you
i am the high you can't sustain    and i control you
i am the pusher i'm a whore        and i control you
i am the need you have for more    and i control you
i am the bullet in the gun         and i control you
i am the truth from which you run  and i control you
i am the silencing machine         and i control you
i am the end of all your dreams    and i control you
i take you where you want to go
i give you all you need to know
i drag you down i use you up
mr self destruct
