[Intro: Shaffer Smith]
(Closer, closer, closer, closer, closer...)
[Verse 1: Trent Reznor]
You let me violate you
You let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you
You let me complicate you
(Help me) I broke apart my insides
(Help me) I've got no soul to sell
(Help me) the only thing that works for me
Help me get away from myself
[Pre-chorus 1: Cristina Scabbia, Trent Reznor]
Looking for a higher ground (Higher...)
Searching for this something missed before (Searching for more...)
From a higher ground (Higher...)
Will I fall in a right direction? (You get me closer to God!)
[Chorus: Trent Reznor, Andrew Taggart]
You get me closer to God
(We ain’t ever getting closer to God!)
[Verse 2: Caleb Followill]
Stranded in this spooky town
Stoplights are swaying and the phone lines are down
This floor is crackling cold
She took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run
Far from the carnage of the fiery sun
Driven by the strangled vein
Showing no mercy I do it again
[Pre-chorus 2: Shaffer Smith, Trent Reznor]
And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can’t stop (I just can't stop)
I just can't stop (I just can't stop)
(You get me closer to God!)
[Chorus: Trent Reznor, Andrew Taggart]
You get me closer to God
(We ain't ever getting closer to God!)
