Where It Belongs

"See the animal in his cage that you built Are you sure what side you're on? Better not look him too closely in the eye Are you sure what side of the glass you are on? See the safety of the life you have built Everything where it belongs Feel the hollowness inside of your heart And it's all Right where it belongs What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you think you know Is an elaborate dream? And if you look at your reflection Is it all you want it to be? What if you could look right through the cracks? Would you find yourself Find yourself afraid to see?" Everytime i listen this this is what i hear "see the human in the world god has built are you sure if your a demon or an angel Better not look him in the eye are you sure what side of the glass you are on see the pain in your life that you have built everything is where it belongs feel the emptyness in your heart and its all the way life was meant to be Right where it belongs What if everything around you Isn't quite as it seems? What if all the world you think you know Is an elaborate dream? And if you look at your reflection Is it all you want it to be? What if you could look right through the cracks? Would you find yourself Find yourself afraid to see?" Right Where It Belongs Nine Inch Nails
