The  Mark  Has  Been  Made  -  Nine  Inch  Nails

did  you  happen  to  catch

or  did  you  happen  so  fast

what  you  thought  would  always  last

has  passed  you  by

is  everything  speeding  up

or  am  i  slowing  down

just  spinning  around

and  i  don't  know  why

all  the  pieces  don't  fit

though  i  really  don't  give  a  shit

i  never  wanted  to  be  like  you

but  for  all  i  aspire

i  am  really  a  liar

and  i'm  running  out  of  things  i  can  do

i'd  like  to  say

but  every  day

everything  pushes  me  further  away

if  you  could  show

help  me  to  know

how  it's  supposed  to  be

where  did  it  go?

pleading  and

needing  and

bleeding  and

breeding  and

feeding

exceeding

where  is  everybody?

trying  and

lying

defying

denying

crying  and

dying

where  is  everybody?

well  okay,  enough

you've  had  your  fun

but  come  on  there  has  got  to  be  someone

that  hasn't  yet  become

so  numb

and  succumb

and

god  damn  i  am  so  tired  of  pretending

of  wishing  i  was  ending

when  all  i'm  really  doing  is  trying  to  hide

and  keep  it  inside

and  fill  it  with  lies

open  my  eyes?

maybe  i  wish  i  could  try

pleading  and

needing  and

bleeding  and

breeding  and

feeding

exceeding

where  is  everybody?

trying  and

lying

defying

denying

crying  and

dying

where  is  everybody
