Burn Lyrics
This world rejects me
This world threw me away
This world never gave me a chance
This world gonna have to pay
Well I don't believe in your institutions
I did what you wanted me to
And like the cancer in your system
I've got a little surprise for you
Something inside of me
Has opened up its eyes
Why did you put it there?
Did you not realize?
This thing inside of me
It screams the loudest sound
Sometimes I think I could
Burn
I look down at where you're standing
Flock of sheep all on display
With all your lies piled up around you
I can take it all away
Something inside of me
Has opened up its eyes
Why did you put it there?
Did you not realize?
This thing inside of me
It screams the loudest sound
Sometimes I think I could
I'm gonna burn this whole world down
I'm gonna burn this whole world down
(I never was a part of you) (Burn)
(I never was a part of you) (Burn)
(I never was a part of you) (Burn)
(I never was a part of you) (Burn)
(I never was a part of you) (BURN)
(I never was a part of you) (BURN)
(I never was a part of you) (BURN)
(I never was a part of you) (BURN)
I am your savior (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
I am corruption (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
I am the angel (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
Of your destruction (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
I am perversion (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
Secret desire (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
I am your future (I never was a part of you) (BURN)
Swallowed up in fire (I never was a part of you)
I'm not a big NIN fan, but this song is really good. And their drummer is awesome.
This song makes me want to kill people
this song is so amazing, like lyrically, damn! i don't know how to explain what it makes me feel........
And it was made specifically for Natrual Born Killers, the soundtrack which trent produced adn arranged
This song is not about religion. Maybe is about organized religion, corporations, the goverment, mainstream media and the whole society. The lyrics cant be more antisocial. I think that he's talking about a moment when you realize that everything is bullshit. The lyrics fit very well with the natural born killers story for which the song was made. Thats it.
Purest Feeling was actualy the first song Trent recorded as NIN.
by far one of the strongest hard hitting songs by NIN, i put on the headphones and crank it wide open to try and give it justice, and it hurts! i grit my teeth and clutch my fist, and feel so relieved, try it!
And now, after three years of listening NIN with his headphones, on full volume, bluezmuzak is legally deaf.

Yes, their stage drummer is very good. BUT, they obviously used a drum machine for the fast parts. No human could play that. Good day.
this is a kickass song, and NIN is awsome....but i think artie the strongest man in the world could play the drum parts without the machine
OMG! Did you just say Artie the strongest man in the world?! I love you. Marry me.
