Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1976288
Verse 1
This is the first day of my last days
I built it up, now I take it apart
Climbed up real high, now fall down real far
No need for me to stay
The last thing left, I just threw it away
I put my faith in God and my trust in you
Now there's nothing more fucked up I could do

Chorus
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

Verse 2
I’m the one without a soul
I'm the one with this big fucking hole
No new tale to tell
Twenty-six years, on my way to hell
Gotta listen to your big-time, hard-line, bad luck, fist-fuck
Don't think you’re having all the fun
You know me, I hate everyone

Chorus
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

Bridge
I want to but I can't turn back
But I want to, but I can't turn back
I want to but I can't turn back
But I want to, but I can't turn back

Chorus
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you
Wish there was something real
Wish there was something true
Wish there was something real
In this world full of you

Outro
This world full of you
This world full of you
This world full

of you\r\nThe song "Wish" by Nine Inch Nails is a raw and intense track that delves into themes of disillusionment, self-destruction, and longing for authenticity in a world filled with superficiality. The lyrics express a sense of despair and hopelessness, as the protagonist reflects on their own destructive tendencies and lack of fulfillment. The chorus repeatedly yearns for something real and true in a world that feels fake and empty. The bridge hints at a desire for change, but ultimately acknowledges the difficulty of turning back from a destructive path. Overall, "Wish" is a powerful and gritty anthem that captures the darker aspects of the human experience.

Biography

edit bio
Nine Inch Nails is an industrial rock project led by the incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist Trent Reznor. Reznor has been the driving force behind the project for many years, serving as the only constant member until Atticus Ross officially joined in 2016. Despite the ever-changing lineup of band members for live performances, Nine Inch Nails has consistently produced highly influential records across a wide array of genres, including industrial and electronic rock.

Throughout the 1990s, Nine Inch Nails released several groundbreaking albums that pushed the boundaries of music. The project gained a reputation for its innovative sound and intense live performances. After eight successful studio releases, Reznor decided to put Nine Inch Nails on hiatus in 2009 to focus on other projects. However, he made a triumphant return in 2013 with announced tour dates across the United States and overseas.

Nine Inch Nails has received numerous accolades over the years, including 13 Grammy Award nominations and two wins for songs "Wish" and "Happiness In Slavery." Reznor himself was recognized in Time magazine's list of the year's most influential people, and Spin magazine has hailed him as "the most vital artist in music."

The band has released a total of nine studio albums since their debut in 1989, as well as four original EPs. Nine Inch Nails was also one of the first artists to have an independently released record go platinum. Their albums have achieved great success, with two reaching the number one spot on the U.S. charts - The Fragile and With Teeth - and four others landing in the top 5.

Each official Nine Inch Nails release is assigned a Halo number, providing a unique identifier for fans. The band's discography showcases their evolution and innovation over the years, solidifying their status as one of the most influential and groundbreaking acts in the music industry.
