A typical green grocer? Or a black prince? Or some other variant?
Saul Williams fan.
Thought he had it all before they called his bluff
Found out that his skin just wasn't thick enough
Wanted to go back to how it was before
Thought he lost everything
Then he lost a whole lot more
A fool's devotion
Swallowed up in empty space
The tears of regret
Frozen to the side of his face
I was nobody. Nothing.
i don;t wanna imagine the insects you fuckers have down there in Australia

We got some pretty epic bugs, for sure.
I'm ashamed to admit my cicada knowledge is clearly not up to the level of yours. The only ones I know are the fluoro green noisy fuckers (I think that's the scientific name)
Down, but not out.

My mind picked a fuckton of songs at once. I'm disappointed in my inability to lower it down to just one.

Lyrics to Burn and Into the void.
Down, but not out.
This isn't meant to last! This is for right now!

Sadly, I can honestly relate to a lot of NIN lyrics in some form or another. Particularly given that a lot of TR's lyrics have several different layers of meaning to consider. So it really prompted me to give it some thought.
Whilst this thread is about NIN lyrics that describe people's lives and moods in general, my thoughts somehow gravitated towards more the end of life, and so these beautiful lyrics came to mind:
'...and when the day arrives
I'll become the sky
and I'll become the sea
and the sea will come to kiss me
for I am going home
nothing can stop me now...'

I am trying
to see
I am trying
to believe
This is not where
I should be
I am trying
to believe
I was nobody. Nothing.
And I know you remember
How we could justify it all
And we knew better
In our hearts, we knew better
And we told ourselves it didn't matter
And we chose to continue
Shame on us
Doomed from the start
May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts
Shame on us
For all we've done
And all we ever were
Just zeros and ones
(this is for the whole world) :/
Down, but not out.
And I just slowly fade away.
Down, but not out.
Everyone I know goes away in the end.
Made the choice to go away.
Down, but not out.
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Stubby Member
I will use my voice
And I will use my fist
To destroy Everything I can

I've done all I can do
could I please come with you?
Down, but not out.
I'm sifting through the ashes of what I have become.
Why does it have to be this way?
Stubby Member
The echoes in my eyes
Of all they used to see
Burning down the world
Ashes and debris
reznorwaver
I am tainted
the two of us were never meant to be
all these pieces and promises and left behinds
if only I could see
in my nothing you meant everything
everything to me...
Down, but not out.
A place to bury everything I did and burn it to the ground.
Let me get away.
Down, but not out.
I am home. I believe. I am home. I am free. I am home. I can see. Always here. Finally.
Wave goodbye. Wish me well.
I was nobody. Nothing.
Dust to dust
Ashes in your hair

Only thing I've ever done
Ticking time is running out
Closest I've ever come
Ticking time is running out
Oh so tired on my own
Ticking time is running out
Best days I've ever known
Ticking time is running out
Yesterday I found out the world was ending
Yesterday I found out the world was ending
A little more
Every day
Falls apart and
Slips away
I don't mind
I'm okay
Wish it didn't
Have to end this way
These four walls are closing in
Ticking time is running out
Of all the things that might have been
Ticking time is running out yeah
Watch young lovers walking by
Ticking time is running out yeah
God forgive me if I cry
Ticking time is running out
A little more
Every day
Falls apart and
Slips away
I don't mind
I'm okay
Nothing ever
Stays the same
While we can
Remember when
Always…
My mother had a stroke after a long recovery from a bad accident left her with complications and some brain damage that she finally could not recover from. She was in a coma, with very little brain activity, and a decision had to be made about if or when the machines should be detached so her body could be released from this life. Talk about a tough decision. She had a living will but sometimes the interpretations of what is outlined in those can vary and people can disagree. As it turned out, she died before that dreadful decision had to be made.
When NIN played on Austin City Limits, my dad was able to get us tickets. When they played "While I'm Still Here", it deeply affected me, my brother and Dad and I'm sure all of us were thinking of Mom and how her life ended. Following "Hurt", right after that, we all had tears in our eyes. It puts chills down my back and makes the hair on my arms stand up, even now, just to think about it.
Ticking time is running out . . . .
Down, but not out.
I just made you up to hurt myself. There is no you. There is only me.

Down, but not out.
I want to do something that matters.
It runs even deeper.
And all of this is a consequence brought on by our own hand.
Time has a way you know, to make it clear.
