NINE INCH NAILS
- Metal Lyrics / with translationsWe're in the building where they make us grow
And I'm frightened by the liquid engineers
Like you
My Mallory heart is sure to fail
I could crawl around the floor just like I'm real
Like you
The sound of metal I want to be you
I could learn to be a man
Like you
Plug me in and turn me on
Oh, everything is moving
I need my treatment it's tomorrow they send me
Singing, "I am an American"
Do you?
Picture this if I should make the change
I'd love to pull the wires from the wall
Did you?
And who are you and how can I try?
Here inside I like the metal
Don't you?
All I know is no one dies
I'm still confusing love with need
And I'm frightened by the liquid engineers
Like you
My Mallory heart is sure to fail
I could crawl around the floor just like I'm real
Like you
The sound of metal I want to be you
I could learn to be a man
Like you
Plug me in and turn me on
Oh, everything is moving
Singing, "I am an American"
Do you?
Picture this if I should make the change
I'd love to pull the wires from the wall
Did you?
And who are you and how can I try?
Here inside I like the metal
Don't you?
All I know is no one dies
I'm still confusing love with need
Facts about Metal
✔️
Metal is written by Gary Anthony James Webb.
✔️
It is first released on November 20, 2000 as part of Nine Inch Nails's album "Things Falling Apart" which includes 10 tracks in total.
✔️
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, Nine Inch Nails' Metal takes a deep look into the concepts of identity, change, and the battle between human feelings and mechanical life. It relies on metaphors like 'liquid engineer' and 'metal heart' to bring the idea of conflict between organic and non-organic parts of life. With its lyrics, Metal mainly points out contemplation, despair, social critique, love, and tragedy. However, the song also highlights the significance of identity and change, conformity and individualism, rebellion and liberty, and confusion and self-discovery. The lyrics exhibit the metamorphosis, identity, and perhaps a remote sense of alienation as the major themes, which could be appropriate for a grown-up audience only. The accompanying language and imagery, although not explicit, imply the very complex and complicated emotional and psychological content that may turn out to be difficult for the younger audience without the help of their parents.
