| Ok, dude. What you just said makes no sense whatsoever... rape is the absense of choice over one's body... people make their own choices about what religion that they want to have. Like, for example, I know that the Islam religion forces people to submit to their ways(or be killed)... well that's what rape is... | |

Yes I have, but most of his previous albums just concept albums of what his life was like at the time... obviously the concept of christianity made him completely paranoid. The fragile is probly my favorite album though... it's kind of a farcry from any of his previous albums from that point, and the paranoia kind of dies down, but then it turns up again in Year Zero, only this time it's a more down to earth kind of paranoia. This is an album set 15 years into the future of what Trent envisions his life would be like(as opposed to what it actually was in the previous albums.) *My god, can it go any faster *Oh my god, I don't think I can last here These lines, as you probly know are common orgasms of women in sex... and Trent is kind of singing like he's having an orgasm also... So, in this song, I think Trent is seeing the actions of the current world powers as a kind of rape because of their forced will upon the masses (Particularly the parepin in the water), because one the drug makes makes the victums feel good, and two, it gives the administers of the drug complete control over one's body, both of which can be described as rape. Now, rather or not the masses are enjoying this supposed "rape" or not, is probly covered later on in the album. |

Well then, let me offer you some advice in your pursuit of the criticism of religions. First, you must understand that there are an infinite number of lies that either can or already exist in this world but there can only be one truth... for example, I can hold up a red ink pen and say "the color of this pen is red", and of course that would be me telling me the truth... yet there are so many more colors I can name the pen, "blue, yellow, green", and that of course would be lying. It's likewise with religion. Only one of them can be true, and if you don't know which one it is, then would you really believe that you have any right to criticism? So here comes the punchline. Christians worship the truth itself. |

What I dont get is why people think this song has anything to do with Bush when the album is set 15 years into the future. How stupid can you get? |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – God Given Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
You're right. It is a mockery, but know no, what I said was not distorted. I know exactly what I'm talking about. First of all, in the ARG, the government supposedly usurps the christian religion and excercises a power to force people to submit to their laws and have everyone receive nero-chips protecting the country from illegal immigration(which is partially what this song is about... "guess you cannot win with the color of your skin"... the "promised land", as someone stated above, being America in the song... And second, this album is a concept that has a progressive story... "The Warning" is about The Presence and its impact upon those who saw and felt it. "God Given" is the result of this. |

| Nine Inch Nails – Vessel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This is a quote from one of the ARG websites describing the relationship between Parepin and The Presence... "When the Presence came, for the first few days we didn’t know what to do. We upped the Parepin in the water near every sighting, just to keep people from panicking, you know? We thought maybe it was a weapon or the weather or some fucking subversive prank, those little streetcorner shitheads, give them a spray-paint can think they’re fucking Zorro, while I spend my days sending agents out to die so they don’t have to pray to Mecca 5 times and day." They ended up trying to up the parepin dosage to avoid a world-wide panic, so I think parepin makes everyone feel like their turning into god or something and that nothing can go wrong... like what Trent says in the song... I'm becoming something else I am turning into God |

| Nine Inch Nails – Me, I'm Not Lyrics | 18 years ago |

It actually sounds a bit like this: (the chorus both times around) Hey... can we stop? Me? I'm not me... Can we stop? Me? I'm not me... Can we stop? Yep! Me, I'm not. Hey... can we stop? Me, I'm not. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – The Beginning of the End Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I'm having doubts about the "consequence" lines of the song... The first time it sounds like "We face our consequence" ... and the second time it sound like "They see no consequence" Am I not hearing this correctly? |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Capital G Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
THE "G" STANDS FOR GREED. Period. End of story. If Trent telling his fans it is GREED is not good enough THEN LISTEN TO THE FRIGGIN SONG!! After the line "And he signs his name with a Capital G" you hear a crowd chanting GREED!! GREED!! GREED!!! GREED!!! GREED!! |

| Nine Inch Nails – Another Version of the Truth Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think this song is hinting at the fact that the people of the world are finally realizing and facing the consequence of their decisions... And I think the reason why this song is called "another version of the truth" is because they were given the truth from the beginning yet chose not to believe it... and now that the world is fucked up because of this, they are now given "another version of the truth", which is the consequences of their actions. In other words, they chose not to learn the easy way, but the hard way. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – The Great Destroyer Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I think this song is about the Anti-Christ... i hope they cannot see the limitless potential living inside of me to murder everything I hope they cannot see I am the great destroyer It basicly means he's there to make the world think he's doing them a huge favor and doesnt want anyone to know that he ultimately there to destroy them. Say your name Try to speak as clearly as you can You know everything gets written down Nod you head Just in case they could be watching With their shiny satellites turn it up listen to the shit they pump into your head filling you with apathy hold your breath wait until you know the time is right on time the end is near These lines describe the type of power that he has over the world... |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – The Warning Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
If some of you people are going to go ahead and say that "the presence" is god, then I'm going to go ahead and say its the devil. Besides! if you read the bible you'll learn that he tries to mimic everything that god does... so why not? I think the "the presence" might as well be the devil and year zero be the tribulation simply because of the events that transpire in the ARG that is year zero... "Hyperpower!" is the world government taking place which spells "the beginning of the end".... "survivalism" is the resistance against this new power....and the songs "the good soldier" thorugh "my violent heart"(tracks 4-8) describe how this new world power affects the people it rules... The church of plano of "God Given" might as well be the great harlot, and the events up until Zero-Sum describe the world getting screwed over because of all that has taken place... *whew*... that wasn't so bad =) Thank you very much! |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – The Warning Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Well, whatever "the presence" is, we at least know it seems to act in a way to affict people with a tremendous guilt, shame, and fear... and also seems to cause people to accuse one another... | |
| Nine Inch Nails – The New Flesh Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
This song seems to make a reference to "Please" with the "this is how it all begins", only the ending seems like its more hopeful where as "Please" ends with a kind of "I'm so disappointed" kind of tone. I have no idea what it means... |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – God Given Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
As for this song, it sounds like a group of people were terrified by "the presence", so they took a concept of a religious group(which in this case is christians) and warped it into a hypocritical and satanic version of christianity... something that soothes their fear of "The Presence"... Of course, if you read the bible, you will come across the phrase "There is no love in fear", and this basicly means all fear or terror is of satan. "The Presence" = Satan. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – God Given Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
After listening to this song, I've seriously come to realize that "The Presence" is what makes this entire album... take away The presence, and you have no Year Zero... And as much as this album focuses on America and its flagship religion "In God we trust", it may be safe to say that this is just an example of a group of people that were terrified into hypocrisy(by "The Presence" of course), seeing how this song follows "the warning". The church of plano in the ARG basicly destroys separation of the church from the state and integrates it into government. Now, as much as this sounds like the rule of the Anti-Christ in Revelastion(with the nero-chips and all...), it makes sense that, if you want to believe that this entire album makes a reference to the rapture and the end of the world, that the rapture would have to take place in the song "Hyperpower!", because this song IMO, is a possible reference to a world government taking place in the ARG, which in turn, is "the beginning of the end". The rest of the album of course, would be about the struggles between the government, the resistance, and the people in between. Zero-Sum would be the end of the tribulation of course, with the "It's all over, they're starting to reach through the sky" part... |

|
| Nine Inch Nails – Vessel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Here's a few lyric fixes by the way... the "**" being the fixed lyrics... I let you put it in my mouth I let it get under my skin **I let you pump it through my fuckin veins I let you take me from within They tell us what we can and cannot do Same thing we've heard a hundred times before **When I put you inside of me **None of that matters anymore **My god, can it go any faster Oh my god, I don't think I can last here I am you and you are me We will never be alone I have finally found my place in everything I have finally found my home Well, I can leave all the past behind I can see right through the whole facade **I am becoming something else I am turning into God **My god, can it go any faster Oh my god, I don't think I can last here |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Vessel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Well, all things considered about Parepin here, lets take a look at every detail... I have finally found my place in everything I have finally found my home Well, I can leave all the past behind I can see right through the whole facade IMO, I don't think this part in particular has anything to do with the presence... In the ARG, these lines seem to me like this is the general attitude the ruling powers want everyone to have... the "facade" of course, probably being whoever opposes either them or their propaghanda... I'm becoming something else I am turning into God This part probly describes what parepin does, which is either make everyone think their either invincible or that nothing can go wrong, and if that being the case, this is probably the reason why the drug makes everyone so controllable; you tell them to do something, they feel so fine that they don't care and are like "why the fuck not? LOLOLOL". As for The Presence, the only interpretation I'm seeing is in "The Warning". I think this song is about Parepin alone... |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Vessel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
So in the end, the true meaning of this song could be that even though the government does all these things to keep people under control, the world will eventually meet its fate. It's kinda that way with all drugs in general... you know you can stay on the same perscription drug that you think is saving your life or whatever, but you're just delaying the inevitable. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Vessel Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Aright look, I definatley know THIS part is about Parepin: I let you put it in my mouth I let it get under my skin I let you pump it through my veins I let you take me from within They tell us what we can and cannot do Same thing we've heard a hundred times before When I put you inside of me None of that matters anymore The "you" in the song being Parepin because its a drug that makes you do what the government wants you to do. But this I don't understand: I am you and you are me We will never be alone I have finally found my place in everything I have finally found my home Well, I can leave all the past behind I can see right through the whole facade I'm becoming something else I am turning into God Now, I've heard of drugs that can sometimes make you think that you're fucking invincible, so is that what this is about? I.E. Parepin making everyone think everything is absolutely fine? As for this: Oh my god, can it go any faster Oh my god, I don't think I can last here This doesn't seem like it has anything to do with Parepin whatsoever... is this the drug wearing off? I.E. it wears off so, he has to drink more water i guess and hope the effect comes back real fast... I.E. maybe because things are getting relatively worse in the world. Seeing how this song follows "The Good Soldier", I think this may be the best interp. |

| Nine Inch Nails – Survivalism Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
If you want some more information on all this new world order shit, then you should read the comment I posted on the song "Heresy". 3rd or 4th page i think... As for the meaning of this song, keep in mind that this is the year 2022, and I believe it's very self explainatory just like "hyperpower!" and "the begining of the end was"... but that's of course if you follow the ARG websites. The government has the power, the end is near, and he's making preparations for it i.e. Survivalism. |

| Nine Inch Nails – The Greater Good Lyrics | 18 years ago |

This song is pure genious both the lyrics and the general feel it has... It's a good reflection of how governmental powers and be so ignorant and full of fear that they would attempt to have complete control over humanity by losing their own. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – My Violent Heart Lyrics | 18 years ago |

I have to agree totally with what alarmclock651 is saying... probly my 2nd fav song on YZ... It's basicly how governments are often too stupid to realize the consequences of their actions. Should he single this or vessel? Hmm... tough choice... i like em both =/ |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Heresy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I dunno if this is a possible interpretation or not, but could the "Heresy" of the song be what I was describing above? In other words: Heresy = "God made AIDS"? |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Heresy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Read the lyrics to the song though... this song is about AIDS and how most christians are saying that "God created AIDS" to kill off all the homosexuals and adulterers because it seems like to them that they're always the ones who that wind up with these viruses... Lyrical proof to this is "he flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line he made a virus that would kill off all the swine" I, of course, personally believe that its a man-made virus developed by the secret world governments in order to get rid of population growth so that they might have more control over the masses... After all, whores and queers aren't the only one's with this virus... there actaully are traditional families with kids who have it. |

I can't figure out if this is about Parepin only, or if its about everything the government is doing to our bodies in general(the word vessel refering to the human body?) So crazed for power that they would not only control our personal behavior but the chemistry in our own bodies as well? Sounds like Deus Ex. Have you guy ever played Deus Ex? It basicly a first-person shooter RPG where this organization trys to take over the world. Nevertheless... looking like my favorite song on Year Zero and hoping that he does go single with this one =) Could care less for all the times he said god's name in vain tho... |

I read all the comments again, and I felt like I should have a say on the whole media issue... The media, ESPECIALLY the fox news channel and MSNBC, blatently portrays christians as either hypocritical bigots, mad persecuters, or insane fools. Well, there's something you should know before rolling your eyes. These people get paid to get on the air and put this shit on television and this goes for their acting accomplaces as well. By whom you ask? Well, it's very simple yet goes deeper than you could possibly imagine. There was a secret organization called "The Illuminati" that formed in 1776(yes, the same time the declaration of independence was formed) and started the first attempts at global government. Despite their recent activites their ideas, plans and beliefs originated in both Egypt and also in the Babylonian empires thousands of years ago, but decided to take direct action only until 1776. They started with 5 major world-wide goals: (1) Abolition of monarchies and all ordered governments (2) Abolition of private property and inheritances (3) Abolition of patriotism and nationalism (4) Abolition of family life and the institution of marriage, and the establishment of communal education of children. (5) Abolition of all religion. Now, over the years this secret society has still existed and many believe they no longer carry the title "Illuminati", but instead operate under many titles in order to hide their presence in the world more efficiently. But, of course my main point here is they still continue to carry out these goals to this very day, and yes, there is a reason they decided to form in 1776. USA was a test; to see if they could execute what would be their vision of a properly administered government to end all governments. Now because of USA's success, they have today what they believe to be the most powerful of nations. Now one of their current goals is to bankrupt America and to siphon all of its wealth into the project of building the real thing, the New World Order. They pretty much do this by trying to control all the media and influence of the world, but of course they've all been nothing but puppets all along of, you guessed it, the Anti-Christ. |

What I thought was interesting was Art Bell said that he had never experienced a total breakdown of his radio show like that in all of his years of doing it. I think that helps validify the fact that it was not a hoax... I mean, the guy obviously knew what he was talking about. |

And like I said, the "mallory heart" was a famous piece of jewelry that belonged to queen elizabeth. "mallory" is actually an english last name I think... or is it a first name? But here, "mallory heart" is figuratively being described as a heart made of metal... cold and emotionless. |
|
| Nine Inch Nails – Metal Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Well, if you know Trent, you'll know he has often referred to american society as a machine made of metal... So I think that was why he was able to identify with this song and cover it so well... in fact I think this is my favorite cover he's ever done. Too bad it isn't talked about much... but I think it definately fits his definition of american society... We're all just a bunch of vegtables ruled by metal and liquid engineers who, in the song, are figuratively the doctors and food industries. |
|
| AFI – Miss Murder Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Ok, I still think this song is about denouncing the catholic church but I have another theory... Miss Murder might also be refering to the Great Whore of the book of revelation... See, everyone nowadays thinks that the great whore resembles the roman catholic church and in the past it was Rome itself, but Rome was torn apart, yet is also being rebuilt before our eyes, which of course is the new babylon... *sigh* I could go on forever about this... |

I dunno... this song also seems to closely resemble someone losing a loved one to suicide... And by catholic beliefs, I meant that catholics believe that if you take your own life then you damn yourself by doing so... its just that it would make sense if davey went to catholic school... but I dunno if he's a pagan or whatever... I'm just going by what I've been told... But lets face facts here... they decided to release the album on 6/6/06, so does that provide a hint for you? |
