Nine Inch Nails
Dear World,
[Intro]
Yes, everyone seems to be asleep

[Verse 1]
Hey look, you didn't even know this
Couldn't even tell
Just when it started... happening
Maybe just as well
After all, everything is getting unfamiliar now
Trajectory in decline
And we become obsolete
A frame at a time

[Chorus]
I'm locked inside here
Have to stay
With people who aren't here
All the way
Pictures and faces
On display
With people who aren't here
All the way (all the way)
All the way (all the way)
All the way (all the way)

[Bridge]
It is coming, and you didn't even notice, yeah you didn't even notice... (you were missing)
[Verse 2]left channelright channelDear world,I am leavingI can hardly recognize you anymoreBecause I can't recognize who I have beenAnd yet I remain certainThere is an answer in youYou go on spoilingI feel like I have lived so long sometimesHey look, it's happeningRun out of things to try to doWithout me you didn't even noticeI can't concentrate my way outOf course it's been happening all alongPermanent intervalsWhat about...?As you become obsolete, who are you?I begin to go through another of that we have beenOh this place...I can't concentrateI have been entirely patientBut I know I can't trust myself with this againNo, no, not this time[Chorus]
I'm locked inside here
Have to stay
With people who aren't here
All the way
Pictures and faces
On display
With people who aren't here
All the way (all the way)
All the way (all the way)
All the way (all the way)

[Outro]
Yes, everyone seems to be asleep
