And proud, which sounds weird, maybe. I think it took a lot of courage for Trent Reznor to release a joyful and ernest song like this. I'm sure he knows some fans will call it a Hallmark card.
Well, screw 'em. I love it.
I think "Everything" about the pure joy that comes from being released from the demon of addiction. And about remaining vigilant, because it always waits inside you.
I remember once many years ago I heard NIN playing in a mall. I felt this wash of alienation, like, "What the hell? Aren't you people listening? This is agonizing self-loathing and rage, here! You can't just absent-mindedly hum along!" His songs were painful for me to hear.
Now, this. When I heard "Everything", I literally cried tears of relief that someone who had suffered so much had found joy.
Yes, me, too. It makes me happy.
