Song lyrics Getting smaller by Nine Inch Nails

getting a little erratic here
and i don´t know who to trust
i guess they got a way of reading my mind
i guess i´ve got to adjust
i´ve got my arms that flip flop flip flop flip
i got my hair on a spring
well i thought i got you on my side...
i haven´t got fucking anything

i´m just a face in the crowd
nothing to worry about
not even try to stand out
i´m getting smaller and smaller and smaller
and i´ve got nothing to say
it´s all been taken away
i just behave and obey
i´m afraid i´m starting to fade away

uh huh..

i cannot see through the cracks
when i was up on the wall
i´m not looking to stand up real high
i´d be happy to crawl
i think i´m losing my grip
but i can still make a fist
you know i´ve still got my one good arm
and i can... mmm i can beat myself for this

i´m just a face in the crowd
nothing to worry about
not even try to stand out
i´m getting smaller and smaller and smaller
and i´ve got nothing to say
it´s all been taken away
i just behave and obey
i´m afraid that i´m starting to fade away

hey and for what it is worth
i used to really believe
but maybe that´s some great thing
that we could achieve
and now i can´t tell the difference
don´t know what to feel
between what i´ve been trying so hard to see
and what appears to be real

i´m fading away...

my world is getting smaller every day and that´s okay...
