slave screams he thinks he knows what he wants
slave screams he thinks he has something to say
slave screams he hears but doesn't want to listen
slave screams he's being beaten into submission
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
the devils of truth steal the souls of the free
don't open your eyes take it from me
i have found
you can find happiness in slavery
slave screams he spends his life learning conformity
slave screams he claims he has his own identity
slave screams he's going to cause the system to fall
slave screams but he's glad to be chained to that wall
don't open your eyes you won't like what you see
the blind have been blessed with security
don't open your eyes take it from me
i have found
you can find happiness in slavery
i don't know what i am i don't know where i've been
human junk just words and so much skin
stick my hands thru the cage of this endless routine
just some flesh caught in this big broken machine

Some insight from Mr. Reznor.

That's sad, you don't know Nine Inch Nails?

More importantly... What does this have to do with the Matrix universe?

its the symbolosim of the words, the last line especialy shows the true nature of the matrix, just some flesh caught in this big broken machine.

Some insight? I do hope that was facetiousness.

The Broken EP was one of Trent's best works. Full of angst and pain, you can really feel the emotion of this album.

I agree, though, "Happiness in Slavery" does sum up the lives of bluepills rather nicely.
