V for Reznor

NINE INCH NAILS LYRICS

The Hand That Feeds


You’re keeping in step
In the line
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine
Because you do
What you’re told
But inside your heart it is black and it’s hollow and it’s cold

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

What if this whole crusade’s
A charade
And behind it all there’s a price to be paid
For the blood
On which we dine
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine

Just how deep do you believe?
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Can you get up off your knees?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you want to change it?

So naive
I keep holding on to what I want to believe
I can see
But I keep holding on and on and on and on

Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
Will you stay down on your knees?

  1. There’s another one on the site, which is also good. It’s the soundtrack for an official NASA simulation of the Pathfinder mission. I think it’s highly cool that NASA would use NIN for an official video, and the song and video are both great. Type Nine Inch Nails into the search box and you’ll find it.

    There are some great V for Vendetta mashups here. And of course I have the alliteration speech he gives Evey.

  2. I always thought that V For Vendetta would be better with SOAD because they are more politicially minded compared to Nine Inch Nails, but this song works fine! :) I’ve got the hardcover edition of the graphic novel, worth every Aussie dollar :P
