Lights in the Sky - Nine Inch Nails

I listened to this song quite alot when I was last in Canada. It's best to listen to this song when you are unhappy or if you think your mind needs slowing down.
This song has a nice raw quality to it, and I like how Trent Renzor is nearly whispering instead of singing, as if the lyrics are intended only to be heard by you and no one else.

And just as a note, if you have the NIN album "The Slip", you really ought to listen to Corona Radiata straight afterwards (as it is on the album).

She's mostly gone
Some other place
I'm getting by
In other ways
Everything they whispered in our ear
Is coming true
Try to justify the things
I used to do
Believe in you

Watching you drown
I'll follow you down
I am here right beside you
The lights in the sky
Have finally arrived
I am staying right beside you

I tried to stay away
Just in case
I've come to realize
We all have our place
Time has a way you know
To make it clear
I have my role in this
I can't disappear
Or leave you here

Watching you drown
I'll follow you down
And I am here right beside you
The lights in the sky
Are waving goodbye
I am staying right beside you
