Terrible Lie

(专辑： Pretty Hate Machine - 1989)

Hey God
Why are you doing this to me?
Am I not living up to what I'm supposed to be?
Why am I seething with this animosity?
Hey God
I think you owe me a great big apology.

Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.

Hey God
I really don't know what you mean.
Seems like salvation comes only in our dreams.
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme.
Hey God
Can this world really be as sad as it seems?

Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.

Don't take it away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't take it away from me
I need you to hold on to

Don't take it away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't take it away from me
I need someone to hold on to

Don't turn away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't turn away from me
I need someone to hold on to

Don't turn away from me
I need you to hold on to
Don't turn, don't turn
Don't turn don't turn don't

Hey God
There's nothing left for me to hide.
I lost my ignorance, security and pride.
I'm all alone in a world you must despise.
Hey God
I believed your promises, your promises and lies.

Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.
Terrible lie.

You made me throw it all away.
My morals left to decay.
How many you betray.
You've taken everything.

Terrible lie.

My head is filled with disease.
My skin is begging you please.
I'm on my hands and knees.
I want so much to believe.

I need someone to hold on to (I give you everything.)
I need someone to hold on to (My sweet everything.)
I need someone I need someone (I give you everything.)
I need someone to hold on to. (My sweet everything.)

I need someone to hold on to (I give you everything.)
I need someone to hold on to (My sweet everything.)
I need someone I need someone (I give you everything.)
I need someone to hold on to. (My sweet everything.)
