Survivalism


I should have listened to her
So hard to keep control
We kept on eating but
Our bloated belly's still not full
She gave us all she had but
We went and took some more
Can't seem to shut her legs
Our mother nature is a whore
(chorus:)
I got my propaganda
I got revisionism
I got my violence
In hi-def ultra-realism
All a part of this great nation
I got my fist
I got my plan
I got survivalism
Hypnotic sound of sirens
Echoing through the street
The cocking of the rifles
The marching of the feet
You see your world on fire
Don't try to act surprised
We did just what you told us
Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies
(chorus)
(cut-up speech)
All bruised and broken, bleeding
She asked to take my hand
I turned, just keep on walking
But you'd do the same thing in the circumstance
I'm sure you'll understand
(chorus)
You got your pacifism - I got survivalism (repeat)

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics SURVIVALISM of NINE INCH NAILS is also present in the album Year zero (2007)

Biografia

Nine Inch Nails are an American industrial rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1988 by singer and multi-instrumentalist Trent Reznor. As the primary songwriter, producer, vocalist, and instrumentalist, Reznor has been the only official member of Nine Inch Nails, solely responsible for the project until 2016 when longtime collaborator Atticus Ross was officially integrated as a full member alongside Reznor. The band's music is characterized by electronic soundscapes, dark atmospheres, and introspective lyrics that explore themes such as depression, alienation, and the relationship with technology. Some of their most representative songs include "Head Like a Hole", "Closer", and "Hurt". Their debut album, *Pretty Hate Machine* (1989), marked a turning point in industrial rock, influencing generations of artists. Among their subsequent albums, *The Downward Spiral* (1994) is considered a masterpiece of the genre.
