Nine Inch Nails - Happiness in Slavery lyrics

[Nine Inch Nails - Happiness in Slavery lyrics]

(Slave screams) He thinks he
Knows what he wants
(Slave screams) Thinks he has
Something to say
(Slave screams) He hears but
Doesn't want to listen
(Slave screams) He's being
Beat into submission

Don't open your eyes you won't
Like what you see
The devils of truth steal the
Souls of the free
Don't open your eyes, take it from me
I have found you can
Find happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery

(Slave screams) He spends his
Life learning conformity
(Slave screams) He claims he
Has his own identity
(Slave screams) He's going to cause
The system to fall
(Slave screams) But he's glad to
Be chained to that wall

Don't open your eyes you won't
Like what you see
The blind have been blessed with security
Don't open your eyes, take it from me
I have found you can
Find happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness

I don't know what I am I
Don't know where I've been
Human junk just words and so much skin
Stick my hands through the cage
Of this endless routine
Just some flesh caught in
This big broken machine

Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness in slavery happiness in slavery
Happiness happiness
It controls you happiness
It controls you
