"the fragile"/Trent Reznor, Nine Inch Nails It's been about 4 years since Trent Reznor promised to come back with something great. This was the most anticipated album of 1997 and 1998 and it looks like it might not even come out this year, either. However, if all of the songs are anything like this one, it looks like the wait will be well worth it. I almost started crying when I first read this... it's beautiful.
The Fragile - FINALLY - hits stores September 21, 1999

"the fragile"
trent reznor, nine inch nails

she shines
in a world full of uglyness
she matters
when everything is meaningless

fragile
she doesn't see her beauty
she tries to get away
sometimes
it's just that nothing seems worth saving
i can't watch her slip away
I WON'T LET YOU FALL APART

she reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by
hoping someone can see
if i could fix myself i'd -
but it's too late for me
I WON'T LET YOU FALL APART

we'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide
i'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking...
it's something i have to do
i was there, too
before everything else
I WAS LIKE YOU
