Pentex sucks! Pentex sucks!!
They drain the life force of my tribe
Pentex sucks!
Bonegnawers suck! Bonegnawers suck!!
They roll around in garbage bins
All Bonegnawers suck!!
(Pentex is bleeding but night is falling)
The Black Hand sucks! The Black Hand sucks!!
Those wyrm-tainted bastard leeches
Black Hand sucks!
If I had my way! If I had my way!
I'd rend them all ripped and torn
ALL THAT SUCKS DIES!!
(Sweet smell bleeding glow is melting me)
I bring my klave into battle
Shifting into Crinos - I slay wyrmfoe
Then I step sideways....
You can't see me, for I hide within the Umbra
Gently
Gently my mind escapes into the relaxing mode of pleasure
A pleasure that will take my mind off the reality of life
My past life
Life as I know it know
And whatever may come it slowly disappears
to somewhere in the back of my mind
It will remain there until I wish to retrieve it
Yes I will stay here for awhile for I need the break
A break from the pressures of life
and everything that lay in the palm of life's hands
This mode is incredible
It's out of this world
Too bad I must always leave it
But that's life
That's life
Shift
Do Nothing/Bitchslap
The system has failed and you have failed with it
No time to care, just time to say "Who gives a shit?"
My mind boils as I've decided I'm through
Fuck your position in life. I'm taking vengence on you
I break down the walls of the political arena
Cast the vote on FN-FAL, yeah, we'll be seein' ya!
(protect yourself)
I want to put a cap right in your asshole
You step to this, you're gonna pass
for a lump of dogshit in the grass
So, be on your way and get some class
Bitchslap
Chop down the big-wigs, shoot the telelvisions, too
My mind boils in life as I've decided I'm through
The guilty of crimes will be hung from the trees
Spit and punches arise from you and me
Sit back and do nothing if that's what you want to do
I will have my reign as king, when I take vengence on you
Only One
Pain. Made to order.
Pain.
Sittin', slappen, scatt'n on my back, try'n to relax
Think'n about the facts of the crack runnin' through the pack
Division in thought about the war to be fought
For tryin' to mend the ranks, still I get no thanks
They say they mean no disrespect, but dis' is in effect
I take to heart the part I play everyday
Uninformed is one thing, stupid is another
Keep runnin' your mouth, but don't call me brother
I'm try'n to find someone on my side
'cause bang'n heads all the time starts to grind at my gear and at my will
But persistent I am still
So when one insubordinate fucker tries to test me
Blow to the head, then an entrail rend
Guts on the floor, but you want more
Show you the strength of the tenth rank
Pain is the only way to teach kids these days
Opened your eyes. Now realized.
Talk back to me. Your punk-ass dies.
Only one of us walks away
I'm all you know. Where will you go.
Valhalla is gone. Along with your soul.
Only one of us walks away
Tattered and Torn
Tattered and Torn
That's where my soul is worn
Tattered and Torn
That's when I was born
Tattered and Torn
I broke away from me
Tattered and Torn
I knocked me to my knees
Tattered and Torn
I drink my own cells
Tattered and Torn
A decomposing well
Tattered and Torn
Roaches in my head
Tattered and Torn
I become the living dead
Tattered and Torn
Tearing myself apart from the
things that make me hurt
Confessions
I know you don't want to see. I know you're not part of me
But you wonder just the same. So I'll let you in on this game
What's on the top is just the beginning of the protectorate that keeps Gaia spinning
It never ends, and with the gifts Luna sends, to the apocalypse
on we defend for the right to live in a perfect world
For our past mistakes, extinction we are hurled
Trying to make amends for the Impergium, as Weaver and the Wyld and a bitch called the Wyrm
(You don't want to know)
All the power of the Wyld that runs through me, yet the reason why is an answer that eludes me
(You don't want to see)
Our viewpoint on what mankind is doing, that black inside when frenzy is brewing
(You don't want to feel)
The sorrow that my heart holds in knowing just where my hopes and dreams are going
(I won't let you be)
Caught up in a war that you are not part of. I sign this letter Your Father, With Love.
I'm trying to set my mind free. I'm sorry you never knew me.
My soul is in recession. Painful to make this confession.
Some Feel
Some feel I don't exist
Never believing in what they see
Some feel that I am not fair
I leave no time for repentance
Tearing the vail Mending the vail
Tearing the vail
Some feel I bare the mark of man
A misguided philosophy
Some feel I kill for fun
I kill for life!
I can't escape what Gaia's left for me / No more
I can't deny the lack of morality / No less
Need time to think need time to think
Need to spill blood so I can drink
Take whay they give take what they give
Some feel I'm dead yet still I live
They don't know I'm immortal
They don't know they're just cattle
They don't know I'm eternal
Eternal
Killers are Quiet
Cycle of life and death supposedly
goes 'round and 'round yet it stops with me
Glorious hunter of my faith I have sinned
Killers are quiet like the the breath of the wind
Filling the shadows with forms of my own
Raised by kindred of Get I was born
Abomination world in disarray
Killers are quiet when they seek the vitae
Reflection beckons a portal shard
Spiritual quest I must stay in guard
Stepping sideways betweens worlds I shift
Killers are quiet when they are born with the gift
Beautiful Anguish cast out by my race
Now one that's Ageless I save my own face
I write my own laws with Death I break bread
Killers are quiet when they come from my head

"The whole thing, I think, is sick."
(sic)
Enemy - Show me what you wanna be
I can handle anything
Even if I can't handle you
Readily - Either way it better be
Don't you fuckin' pity me
Get up, get off...
What the hell am I sayin'?
I don't know about malevolent
Sure as hell decadent
I want somebody to step up, step off
Walls! Let me fall! FUCK YOU ALL!
Get a grip, don't let me slip 'til I drop the ball
I - I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I'm sick of it
You're goin' down, this is a war!
Who the fuck am I to criticize your twisted
state of mind?
You're leavin' me suspect - I'm leavin' you grotesque
Feels like a burn from which you never learn
Cause and effect, you jealous ass
Press your face against the glass - SUFFER!
I - I want it all!
Fuck this shit, I'm sick of it
You're goin' down, this is a war!
I've just begun
It's about that time
Gotta get mine
YOU CAN'T KILL ME
CUZ I'M ALREADY
INSIDE YOU
SICK
Eyeless
Insane - Am I the only muthafucker with a brain?
I'm hearing voices but all they do is complain
How many times have you wanted to kill
Everything and everyone - Say you'll do it but never will
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
I am my Father's son
He's a phantom, a mystery and that leaves me
NOTHING!
How many times have you wanted to die?
It's too late for me. All you have to do is get rid of me!
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
I tried - You lied to me for so long
Everywhere I go, there's a sense of it
Freak on my antics and give me a choice
Doesn't matter if I give a shit
It's shit that you gave me
You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes
It's all in your head
It's all in my head
It's all in your head
Do you wanna feel pain? Takin' my name in vain
Caring never felt so lame inside
Anybody else got pride? Do you wanna take my life?
Maybe I'll reverse my ride
Who the hell are you? FUCK YOU!
Better suck it up cuz you bled through
Better get away from me
Stay the fuck away from me!
I feel safe - Seems your saved
LOOK ME IN MY BRAND NEW EYE
Wait & Bleed
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
Goodbye!
I wipe it off on tile, the light is brighter this time
Everything is 3D blasphemy
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up
This is not the way I pictured me
I CAN'T CONTROL MY SHAKES!
How the hell did I get here?
Something about this, so very wrong...
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this
Is it a dream or a memory?
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
GET OUTTA MY HEAD CUZ I DON'T NEED THIS!
Why I didn't I see this?
I'm a victim - SINNED-BY-JUST
Makin' my mind up and takin' your breath away
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander over where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
GOODBYE!
You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free
I've felt the hate rise up in me...
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves...
I wander out where you can't see...
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed...
AND IT WAITS FOR YOU!
Surfacing
Running out of ways to run
I can't see, I can't be
Over and over and under my skin
All this attention is DOING ME IN!
FUCK IT ALL! FUCK THIS WORLD!
FUCK EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T EXIST!
DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!
Picking through the parts exposed
Taking shape, taking shag
Over and over and under my skin
All this momentum is DOING ME IN!
FUCK IT ALL! FUCK THIS WORLD!
FUCK EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T EXIST!
DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!
You got all my love, livin' in your own hate
Drippin' hole man, hard step, no fate
Show you nuthin', but I ain't holdin' back
Every damn word I say is a sneak attack
When I get my hands on you
Ain't a fuck thing you can do
Get this cuz you're never gonna get me
I am the very disease you pretend to be
I am the push that makes you move
Spit It Out
Since you never gave a damn in the first place
Maybe it's time you had the tables turned
Cuz in the interest of all involved I got the problem solved
And the verdict is guilty...
...MAN NEARLY KILLED ME
Steppin' where you fear to tread
Stop, drop and roll - you were DEAD FROM THE GIT-GO!
BIG MOUTH FUCKER - STUPID COCKSUCKER
Are you scared of me now? Then you're dumber than I thought
Always is, never was
Foundation made of piss and vinegar
Step to me, I'll smear ya -Think I fear ya? BULLSHIT!
Just another dumb punk chompin' at this tit
Is there any way to break through the noise?
Was it something that I said that got you bent?
It's gotta be that way if you want it
Sanity, Literal Profanity HIT ME!
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
Maybe it's the way you spread a lotta rumour fodder
Keepin' all your little spies and leavin' when you realise
Step up, fairy
I guess it's time to bury your ass with the chrome
Straight to the dome
You heard that right, bitch, I didn't stutter
If you know what's good - sit, shut up and beg, brother
Backstab - Don't you know who you're dissin'?
Side swipe - we know THE ASS THAT YOU'RE KISSIN'!
BIGIDY-BIGGIDY BITCH BOY, HALFWAY HAUSER
Can't hear shit cuz I keep gettin' louder
Step up, and you get a face full o' tactic
Lippin' off hard, goin' home in a basket
You got no pull, no power, no NUTHIN'
Now you start shit? Well, ain't that somethin'?
Payoffs don't protect, and you can't hide if you want
But I'LL FIND YOU - Comin' up behind you!
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
'Bout time I set this record straight
All the needlenose punchin' is makin' me irate
Sick o' my bitchin' fallin' on deaf ears
Where YOU gonna be in the next five years?
The crew and all the fools, and all the politix
Get your lips ready, gonna gag, gonna make you sick
You got DICK when they passed out the good stuff
Bam
Are you sick of me? GOOD ENOUGH - HAD ENOUGH
FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemies!
FUCK ME! I'm all out of enemas!
SPIT - IT OUT
All you wanna do is drag me down
All I wanna do is stamp you out
Tattered and Torn
Kill Me
Tattered and torn
Something aches
Tattered and torn
Bad things slither
Tattered and torn
My floors are burning down
Tattered and torn
And I can't find a window
Tattered and torn
This is medieval
Tattered and torn
This is cerebral
Tattered and torn
Suffocated
Tattered and torn
Melodramatic
Tattered and torn
Driven to the verge of
Tattered and torn
I make you my enemy
The nerves you sever
Tattered and torn
Can serve you better
Tattered and torn
In the blink of an eye
Tattered and torn
In the space of a second
Tattered and torn
Open my wrists
Tattered and torn
Give me my lessons
Tearing myself apart
From the things that make me hurt!
Frail Limb Nursery
"She lay as though she were in a trance, with her long eyelashes fluttering like she was dreaming.
She said to him 'I lie beyond the sea' and then all of a sudden her head dipped back and she vanished.
Gone, gone without a trace.
Gone.
She's never coming back, do you know what it's like to live with that?
No one knows what it's like.
The only one who knew me, gone."
Purity
Maze...psychopathic daze...I create this waste
Back away from tangents, on the verge of drastic
ways...can't escape this place...I deny your face
Sweat gets in my eyes, I think I'm slowly dying
Put me in a homemade cellar
Put me in a hole for shelter
Someone hear me please, all I see is hate
I can hardly breathe, and I can hardly take it
HANDSONMYFACEOVERBEARINGICAN'TGETOUT
Lost...ran at my own cost...hearing laughter, scoffed
Learning from the rush, detached from such and such
Bleak...all around me, weak...listening, incomplete
I am not a dog, but I'm the one your dogging
I am in a buried kennel
I have never felt so final
Someone find me please, losing all reserve
I am fucking gone, I think I'm fucking dying
You all stare, but you'll never see
There is something inside me
There is something in you I despise
Cut me - show me - enter - I am
willing and able and never any danger to myself
Knowledge in my pain, knowledge in my pain
Or was my tolerance a phase?
Empathy, out of my way
I can't die
Purity
Liberate
Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...
Section off myself
Put a wall up/What the hell have I done
Keep the dog at bay
Survive by saving me!
Values and the game
Not a fuck-up - Not a part of your lie
I am one, I am all - I'm above and beyond!
Back off of the shit
Stand off or I'll spit
So soft, you forget
Your garbage in is garbage out
You don't give a shit
I won't play the fit
Get off, get on this
Your garbage in is garbage out
Liberate my madness...
Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...
I am not ashamed
What is vital, isn't always humane
You can break in vain
But you can't break away
Even in my face
Lotta bullshit, not alotta the truth
I can't see from here
But I can smell your fear
Back off of the shit
Stand off or I'll spit
So soft, you forget
Your garbage in is garbage out
You don't give a shit
I won't play the fit
Get off, get on this
Your garbage in is garbage out
Saved - You're such a slave - I don't expect a
Name - You don't care - I wasn't witness -
I can't be a part of a system such as this
Hard eyes - Glow right - In my - Darkness - Again
With the sickness, rengade blisters, sisters,
Salivate, litigate, liberate, madness, sadness
Fuck this - How long have I had this?
I don't need this - Outta my business
Insert, engage, betrayed, MY GOD
FRAUD
Liberate - My madness
(One of me, all of you)
Liberate - My madness
I just want to...
Prosthetics
Even if you run... I will find you
I decided I wanted you
Now I know...I NEED
If you can't be bought, tougher than I thought
Keep in mind - I am with you
Never left out fate, can't concentrate
YOU WILL BE MINE!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!
Ah, fucking you will be mine!
I FOUND YOU
Leanin' out of an open window
You laughed (my fingers clenched)
Too perfect, far too careless
I couldn't help myself - I just took you
DAMMIT MAN I KNEW IT WAS A MISTAKE
(You brought it outta me)
Better make yourself out home
You're here to stay
You won't bother me...If you let me bother you
All the doors are locked, all the windows shut
KEEP IN MIND - I watch you
Never leave my side, never leave me, fucker
Even if you run
What the fuck is different? Man, I can't believe I'm doin' this
DAMMIT MAN I KNEW IT WAS A MISTAKE
(You brought it outta me)
No Life
My freedom is best
Whole country's on house arrest
And everyone's a suspect
You can't feel the flow because you died
Face down on a "suicide"
The muthafucker's on self-destruct
Nobody guardin' your back, it's all a front
SAVE THIS! MY RAGE IS BLISS!
I'M TAKIN' NAMES AND GETTIN' PISSED!
Where's Chuck D when ya need him?
You ain't shit, just a puddle on the
Bed spread
The maniac psycho
Cool j screamed the shit
But I still can't believe it
Man, it's funny that you scare me so
Just enough to fuck me up again and again
Hard life is hard as hell
Better back the fuck on up
Cuz this is...
No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)
Can't be real no more - Your mask is skin and bone
Savor every flavor you want cuz it's not your own
Bad-ass at bat, man
Forget about the battle, it's the war we gotta win
Breathe! Amer-cult, Breathe! On more - Seethe!
Freak like you gotta pair
Won't be my fault
When you're painted in the corner of a no-good life
This is...
No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)
I can't remember, I don't understand,
Is it malice that makes you this way?
Carry it with you 'til someone forgives you
I laugh cuz there's nothing to say
YOU CAN'T BEGIN TO CONSIDER THE
PALPABLE HATE IN THE AIR WHEN YOU'RE HERE
None of us wonder what weather you're under
You're making it perfectly clear!
Lights ain't on - shit ain't right
Never had peace so I had to fight
Can you look in my eyes when my back's against
The wall, slash at my eyes, surprise, you'll never get me
You're all reality and sound bites
And the freedom is never in plain sight
The feelings, the question, the price is too
Human, for fucking sake - This is...
No kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(I've got to get out!)
It's no kind of life! This is no kind of life!
(You can't blame me!)
Diluted
I'm cold, I'm ugly
I'm always confused by everything
I can stare into a thousand eyes
But every smile hides a bold-faced lie
It itches, it seethes, it festers and breathes
My heros are dead, they died in my head
Thin out the herd, squeeze out the pain
Something inside me has opened up again
Thoughts of me exemplified
All the little flaws I have denied
Forget today, forget whatever happened
Everyday I see a little more of overall deficiencies
I'm nothing short of being one complete catastrophe
What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this?
I save all the bullets from ignorant minds
Your insults get stuck in my teeth as they grind
Way past good taste, on our way to bad omens
I decrease, while my symptoms increase
God what the fuck is wrong
You act like you knew it all along
Your timing sucks, your silence is a blessing
All I ever wanted out of you was
something you could never be
Now take a real good look at
What you've fucking done to me
What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this?
Gimme any reason why I'd need you, boy
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up
Gimme any reason why I'd need you, bitch
Gimme any reason not to fuck you up
I see you in me
I keep my scars from prying eyes
Incapable of ever knowing why
Somebody breathe, I've got to have an answer
Why am I so fascinated by
bigger pictures, better things
But I don't care what you think
You'll never understand me
What the hell - did I - do to deserve - all of this?
FUCK!!!
Only One
Pain - made to order
I'm not the second coming, I'm the first wave
Better get an army, cuz the fire left me unscathed
You betcha bottom dollar I'm the top of the shit pile
So stick around cuz I'll get to you in just a few
Step off the achtung, get back or get stung
Idiotic sense of yourself, are you that dumb?
Entire legion of me, totalitarian
The one and only muthafucka, top of the world man
Cuz I can't stand it, planned it, gonna crash land it
In other words, consider me branded
Another version of me, another version of you
Both barrels - what you gonna do?
All I hear is human noise
You made your own fuckin' choice
I belong to only me
Silence for my revelry
I can over die over time
Filthy hands, stay away from mine
Every reason is a right to hate
Painful clutch - death is fine, gimme mine
Only one of us walks away
Somebody explain this
You don't care cuz you don't exist
What the fuck is this another joke?
Reckoning!
Scissors
I play doctor for five minutes flat
Before I cut my heart open...and let the air out
Three bugs, a pound of dust
Some wind spilled before me
In the strangest manner that had
Broke away my tear spout
AS I LIE THERE
WITH MY TONGUE SPREAD WIDE OPEN
A BLACK WIDOW HAD OFFERED ME
A SWEETHEART TUBE
AS I INJECTED
THE CANDIED HEART THAT I SELECTED
She said don't hesitate
JUST DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO!!
It's hard to stay between the lines of skin
Just cuz I have nerves, don't mean that I can feel
I wasn't very much fun to be with anyway
Just let the blood run red CUZ I CAN'T FEEL!
Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time until the time is right
Biding my time...
It's time
IT IS - TIME
Eeyore
Meet the man that made me
Greet the can that I came from
Oh the fucking sacred heart of Jesus
BLEW it in the back room
Feelin' like a real goon
Slam the fuck aside, man
I'M ON - YOU'RE NOT
I AM THE GREAT BIG MOUTH
Good riddance - though I'm sad to say
I didn't get to kill you
Rhetoric - Better look both ways
I gotta get an arm through
STAIN
What the fuck is up? Get the fuck away
Run if you want to
Innocent? You're a guilty conscience
Laugh last - break through
STAIN
Prepare you fucker
I don't give a shit, bitch
I don't give a fuck, bitch
I don't understand, bitch
You don't matter
I don't give a shit, man
I don't give a fuck, man
I don't really care, man
I'm the super sized man
Iowa
People = Shit
Here we go again,motherfucker
Come on down,and see the idiot right here
Too fucked to beg and not afraid to care
What's the matter with calamity anyway?
Right? Get the fuck outta my face
Understand that I can't feel anything
It isn't like I wanna sift through the decay
I feel like a wound,like I got a fuckin'
Gun against my head,you live when I'm dead
One more time,motherfucker
Everybody hates me now,so fuck it
Blood's on my face and my hands,and I
Don't know why,I'm not afraid to cry
But that's none of your business
Whose life is it? Get it? See it? Feel it? Eat it?
Spin it around so I can spit in its face
I wanna leave without a trace
Cuz I don't wanna die in this place
People = Shit
People = Shit (Whatcha gonna do?)
People = Shit (Cuz I am not afraid of you)
People = Shit (I'm everything you'll never be)
People = Shit
It never stops - you can't be everthing to everone
Contagion - I'm sittin' at the side of Satan
What do you want from me?
They never told me the failure I was meant to be
Overdo it - don't tell me you blew it
Stop your bitchin' and fight your way through it
I'M - NOT - LIKE - YOU - I - JUST - FUCK - UP
C'mon motherfucker,everbody has to die
People = Shit
People = Shit (Whatcha gonna do?)
People = Shit (Cuz I am not afraid of you)
People = Shit (I'm everything you'll never be)
People = Shit
Disasterpiece
I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
I wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
I wanna dig inside,find a little bit of me
Cuz the line gets crossed when you don't come clean
My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out,cuz you were never alive
I am infinite,I am the infant finite
Come a little closer and I'll show you why
(NO ONE IS - SAFE)
Noises,noises,people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING
How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at
Look in my eyes for the answers - typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everbody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to power them
Once again,it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine,it's not fair,it's outta my hands
And it's shaking - you'll never take me
(NO ONE IS - SAFE)
Noises,noises,people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING
NOTHING!
(HATE) Hate ain't enough to describe me
(SCREAM) Somewhere between screaming and cring
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
(WHY) When do I get to know why?
(BITTER) Bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
Pull your hands away
I'm gone - goodbye - it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look - inside - my soul is missing
All I have is dead,so I'll take you with me
Feel like I'm erased - so kill me just in case
(COVET) Everything around me's mine
(STY) Can't see through the sties in my eyes
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
(DOWN) Scratching and clawing all the way
(STAY) You won't let me fucking stay
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
(LIVE) Is there another way to live?
(DIE) Cuz it's the only way to die
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
My Plague
I'm in conniptions for the final act you came here for
The one derivative you manage is the one I abhor
I need a minute to elaborate for everone the
Everyday bullshit things that you have done
Your impossible ego fuck is like a
Megalomaniacal tab on my tonque
Youu fuckin' touch me I will rip you apart
I'll reach in and take a bite out of that
Shit you call a heart...
I don't mind being ogled,ridiculed
Made to feel minuscule
If you consider the source,it's kinda pitiful
The only thing you really know about me is...
...that's all you'll ever know
I know why you blame me(yourself)
I know why you plague me(yourself)
I'm turning it around like a knife in the shell
I wanna understand why,but I'm hurting myself
I haven't seen a reasons to stop it
I can't just drop it
I'm just a bastard,but at least I admit it
At least I admit it
I know why you blame me(yourself)
I know why you plague me(yourself)
Kill you - fuck you - I will never be you
Kill you - fuck you - I will never be you
I can't fuckin' take it anymore
A snap of the synapse
And now it's fuckin' war
Kill you - fuck you - I will never be you
Everything Ends
You are wrong,fucked,and overrated
I think I'm gonna be sick and it's your fault
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
I haven't slept since I woke up
And found my whole life was a lie,motherfucker
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
Shallow skin,I can paint with pain
I mark the trails on my arms with your disdain
Everyday it's the same - I LOVE YOU HATE
But I guess I don't care anymore...
Fix my problems with the blade
While my eyes turn from blue to gray
God,the worst thing happened to me today
But I guess I don't care anymore
You are wrong,fucked,and overrated
I think I'm gonna be sick and it's your fault
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
I haven't slept since I woke up
And found my whole life was a lie,motherfucker
This is the end of EVERYTHING
You are the end of EVERYTHING
My flaws are the only thing left that's pure
Can't really live, can't really endure
Everything I see reminds me of her
God I wish I didn't care anymore
The more I touch,the less I fell
I'm lying to myself that it's not real
Why is everybody making such a big fucking deal?
I'm never gonna care anymore
What the hell am I doing?
Is there anyone left in my life?
What the fuck was I thinking?
Anybody want to tell me I'm fine?
Where the hell am I going?
Do I even need s reason to hide?
I am only betrayed
I am only conditioned to die
The Heretic Anthem
I'm a pop star threat and I'm not dead yet
Got a super dred bet with an angel drug head
Like a dead beat winner,I wanna to be a sinner
An idolized bang for the industry killer
A hideous man that you don't understand
Throw a suicide party and I'm guaranteed to fucking snap
It's evilsonic,it's pornoholic
Breakdown,obscenities it's all I wanna be
If you're 555,then I'm 666
If you're 555,I'm 666
(What's it like to be a heretic?)
Everbody's so infatuated
Everybody's so completely sure of what we are
Everybody defamates from miles away
But face to face,thay haven't got a thing to say
I bleed for this and I bleed for you
Still you look in my face like I'm somebody new
TOY - nobody wants anything I've got
Which is fine,because you're made of
Everything - I'm - NOT
If you're 555,then I'm 666
If you're 555,I'm 666
(What's it like to be a heretic?)
3D seconds,16,8,4,lemme tell you why
I haven't the slightest,I'm teaching your brightest
They're listening,clamoring
All the money in the world can't buy me
G0 AHEAD,LIE TO ME
Tell me again how you're tortured
I wanna know how you followed your ordere so well
You're full of SHIT
You had a dream,but this ain't it
Gently
Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing
world of pleasure,a pleasure that'll take
my mind off the reality of my life,
my past life...life as I know it now.
And whatever may come,it slowly
disappears to somewhere in the back
of my mind.it will remain there,
until I wish to retrieve it.
Yes,I will stay here for awhile,
for I need the break.A break from the
pressures of life,and everything
that lays in the palm of life's hands.
This mode is incredible.It's out of
this world.Too bad I must always leave it...
...but that's life.
Left Behind
I know I know the faces that have disappeared in time
Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
All my friends have pictures made to make you cry
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to
Calcify...
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes,I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind,we let it all slip away
I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
Don't even try it! You had to be a liar just to
Infiltrate me - I'm still drowning
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes,I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind,we let it all slip away
Take...this...away...
I can feel it on my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get too close
The Shape
Too tragic to stay with you
Too static to try for you
These scars,they swallow hard
The part of the past that's hollow and dark
Too horrid to kill for you
Too sordid to die with you
Unstable as always,come down
Everything else is just dust and sound
SEPARATE(I've lost my only way)
SEPARATE(I've lost my only way)
SEPARATE(I've lost my only way)
SEE THE SHAPE(Broken and thrown away)
I'd give it all away,come take it all away
You can't resent the fear
Somebody tell me how I got here
I'd give it all to you,come take it,it's all for you
The noise is so damn loud,but
Everything else is just dust and sound
I don't wanna do this anymore
Everything's shit - everything's been taken
Forsaken - gotta start it over cuz I'm hearing it
Backwards - DON'T make sense - DON'T feel better
Who's better?It's not that simple
You gotta figure it out before you make things difficult
It's not a word,it's a problem,the problem was easy
Draw your conclusions - solutions?
Anybody else wanna run?
Contorting,distorting - I am undone
One less propaganda nightmare fixture
Are you getting the picture?
I Am Hated
The whole world is my enemy - and I'm a walking target
Two times the devil with all the significance
Dragged and raped for the love of a mob
I can't stay - because I can't be stopped
Eat motherfuckers alive who cross us
I know you're all tired of the same ol' bosses
Let me tell you how it's gonna be
I'm gonna kill anyone who steps up in front of me
Welcome to the same ol' fuckin' scam
Same ol shit in a dead fad
Everybody wants to be so hard
Are you real or a second rate sports card?
They all lost their dad or their wife just died
They never got to go outside - SHUT UP
Nobody gives a fuck
It doesn't change the fact that you suck
(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down,we want you dead
But what's inside of me,you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore
Now I'm not pretty and I'm not cool
But I'm fat and I'm ugly and proud - so fuck you
Standing out is the new pretension
Streamline the (sic)ness,half-assed aggression
You gotta see it to believe it,we all got conned
All the mediocre sacred cows we spawned
Put your trust in the misson
We will not repent - this is our religion
(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down,we want you dead
But what's inside of me,you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore
I AM HATED
YOU ARE HATED
WE ARE HATED
Everything sucks and I can prove it
Everybody dies,shuffle on,remove it
Individuals,indispensable
I'm the paradox deity vessel
...the other side holds no secret
But this side is done.I don't need it
Before you go,you should know you're breaking down
You'll be rotten be the time you're underground
(We are) The anti-cancer
(We are) The only answer
Stripped down,we want you dead
But what's inside of me,you'll never know
(We are) Bipolar gods
(We are) You know what we are
My life was always shit
And I don't think I need this anymore
(We are) The source of conscience
(We are) Distorted sentients
There's only one thing left
And I can't leave until it's sated
(We are) The absolute
(We are) Controlling you
They're closing in,I can't escape
I AM HATED
Skin Ticket
Zero and zero is nothing but zero
Cancer and people conspire together
Running and running and going forever
Collected and sampled,starving for zero
Come see my cage - built in my grain
Minus the inside and minus the circle
Inhabhit the riddle and fill in the hovel
Wherein and herein,between us and near us
Zero and zero is nothing but zero
Come see my cage - built-in migraine
Keeping myself alive...
through your EMPATHY
New Abortion
I'm ethereal,my children are legion,serial
They stick to my skin like beloved cysts
I tear away with my nails and teeth and fists
Touch the hands of inverted saints
Follow my heart through the threaded pain
Callow man is a sentinel screaming
I see the future,the future is bleeding
Sores,every goddamn minute I can feel 'em now
Like a virus,you will never kill me now
Goin' underground,comin'on like hepatitis
We're out - and you can't reshape us
Another bug in the construct
Tearin' up the main bus B
Zeros and ones are everything - execute me
Everywhere you look,it's like they know
Their fingerprints are hidden by CONTROL
This is where the line is drawn,see
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME
What do you need to see? Ya feel the impact?
Gotta retract - everybody get back
What is this? It's like a big conspiracy
Fields of dejected morbid progeny
They always say that it's always our fault
But everything we say is taken with a grain of salt
Man,it's always the same,if we talk or complain
We only wanna upset the balance
How's it feel to be the New Abortion?
The only generation to suffer extortion
Everywhere you look,it's like they know
Their fingerprints are hidden by CONTROL
This is where the line is drawn,see
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY SOUL AWAY FROM ME
Metabolic
Gone - I couldn't murder your promise
Right before my eyes
The revolutions of my psychosis
Kept me outta the way
Once - inside - all I hold is ash
Fall - suppressing every feeling
I'm in so much pain
I have every fuckin' right to hate you
I can't take it!
The hardest part was knowing that I couldn never be you
Now all I do is sit around and wish I could forget you
My demise - I took a life wortj living and
Made it worth a mockery
I deny - I fold,but they keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die
But you're killing me
Who are you to me? Who am I to you?
Is this a lesson in nepotistic negligence?
By default,you are my only link to the outside
Psychosomatic suicide
Where were you when I was down?
Can you show me a way...
To face everyday with this face - goodbye
My demise - I took a life wortj living and
Made it worth a mockery
I deny - I fold,but they keep on coming
(Stop) I'm always ready to die
But you're killing me
When I blur my eyes,they make the whole
World breathe - I see you fucking me
And I am absolutely controlling every urge
To mutilate - the one and only answer
So much for memories...
I wanna dress in your insecurities
And be the perfect you - I'm through
I'm out-stretched out for all to loathe
Here we go - the ultimate irony
Iowa
Relax...it's over,you belong to me,I fill your mouth with dirt
Relax...it's over,you can never leave
I take your second digit with me... Love...
You are...my first,I can breath
I find you fascinating
You are...my favorite,lay you down to sleep
It's all that I can do to stop...Love...
So blue...so broken,paper doll decays
I haven't left you yet
So cold...subversive,your eyes are full of bleach
Tomorrow,I will go away again...Love...
YOU ARE MINE,YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MINE,I CAN TEAR YOU APART
I CAN RECOMBINE YOU
ALL I WANT IS TO COVET YOU ALL
YOU BELONG TO ME
I WILL KILL YOU TO LOVE YOU.(LOVE)

SOMG MEANINGS
742617000027
In this track, the phrase "The whole thing I think is sick." is repeated many times. Most people think that it is the voice of number 8, however,
(sic)
The letters in (sic) stand for Said In Context. The word is a literary term an author uses after saying something he knows is wrong, but includes it anyway.
(sic) evolved from the MFKR song Slipknot
Eyeless
There are a few interpretations of the song Eyeless. When Slipknot came to New York for the first time, they ran into a schizophrenic man who was running around yelling the phrase "You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes!" That was the main inspiration for the song. Eyeless is also about Corey's father, as seen in the phrase "I am my father's son, cause he's a phantom, a mystery, and that leaves me NOTHING!"
Wait and Bleed
Wait and Bleed is about a man who is dreaming that he is lying in a bathtub bleeding to death from his wrists. As the song progresses, the man realizes that he, in fact, isn't dreaming, and he just "waits and bleeds".
Surfacing
The whole basis behind the meaning of Surfacing is that they're trying to say that you really shouldn't give a fuck, or be judged by others. That you shouldn't have to answer to "anything or anyone." As part of their show, Slipknot dedicates the song to corrupt rock stars. The song is known as the "new national anthem." The lyrics "Fuck it all, fuck this world, fuck everything that you stand for, don't belong, don't exist, don't give a shit, don't ever judge me!" are the words of a generation.
Spit It Out
Spit it out is obviously an angry song, written in retaliation to a Des Moines, Iowa radio station who liked to bash Slipknot and not play their material. Two years later, Spit It Out is in that station's regular rotation.
Tattered and Torn
Tattered and Torn is best understood as a song about a person hurting his or her self, and hiding from "the things that make me hurt".
Me Inside
This song is about psychosis, when everything and anything in your life decides to explode in your head at once and it drives you fucking insane... "Giving in to what has got me- feeling claustrophobic, scarred- sever me from all emotion- life is just to fucking hard". Basically just trying to cope with all this really fucked up corrupt shit in your life and having it make you crazy and sick at the thought of it; it becomes overbearing.
Then the spanish at the end is a message to a spanish-speaking friend of the band. It translates to "WE ARE UGLY, WE ARE STINKY BUT WE RULE IN HERE FAGGET MOTHERFUCKER!"
Liberate
As the song kicks off, Corey talks about "sectioning off himself", "putting a wall up", he's trying to protect himself and "survive". He's very angry at what's going on in his life. Hes being persecuted by the people around him and he doesnt like it one fucking bit. Towards the end, Corey seems to go completely insane.
The song's based loosely on a 1960's movie called The Collector. The Collector is about a guy who kidnaps this girl and basically adds her to his collection and keeps her. It's a weird kind of psychological thing, and Prosthetics takes it a little bit further - where he is put into a deep sick psychosis as he goes through the whole collecting thing, at the end of the song he ends up killing her and having sex with her.
No Life
I feel that No Life is saying that everyone is shit. All you have is yourself and your freedom. Everyone is going to turn around and stab you in the fucking back, you have no one to turn to and you can't depend on anyone but yourself. And it really is no kind of life to live on in constant fear, so you end up hiding behind a false "mask" so no one can see what is really inside. When you need someone the most, they will not be there because they're worried about themselves and themselves only and really don't give a fuck about you. And when you fall on your fucking face you better get the hell up fast.
Diluted
Diluted is a song written (in my opinion) about a person who is incapable to continue living. They are haunted by others, and themselves, and may have to deal with emotional problems such as MPD, and Schizophrenia. Or maybe he's just extremely depressed. Either way, the lyrics are more than relatable.
Only One
The meaning to Only One is all too obvious... Corey is pissed off that some asshole has been talking some serious shit about him. Not only is he pissed, but he is going to rectify the situation by finding the fucker and killing the mother fucker.
Scissors
Number 1, drummer Joey Jordison wrote the lyrics to the song Scissors. It seems as if the song is about a person peeling away his skin and cutting open his own body. Scissors is probably the most emotion-filled song anyone's ever heard. Some compare the end of the Slipknot CD to the end of KoRn's Daddy, because both vocalists go off completely. However, Jonathan Davis's whimpers are absolutely dogshit compared to Corey Taylor's screams of agony.
Close to the end of the song, there is a lot of dispute of what is happening with there is coughing, laughing and so on. In my point of view, I think there are all watching some sort of porno with some woman eating shit. The coughing is actually Chris Fehn, because he is about to puke while watching the video.
Eeyore
Eeyore is the hidden track- Slipknot was based on the theory that they would never give up any style of music that we loved to play, for anyone, that they would gel things together under the name Slipknot - it goes from all styles from beginning to end.
Corey: "Eeyore" is just about this one fucking guy from Des Moines, Iowa - he has long blonde fucking hair and he is a prick to people in the fucking pit. He's a Thor looking jerkoff - he loves our band but he's a dick to everyone in the pit - he likes to hit fucking chicks - the song is about me losing my mind and just tearing the shit out of him.
Purity
The song Purity was written when Corey came across a website located at http://www.crimescene.com/purity/index.html. Adrianne Purity Knight was a 20 year old college student who was stalked by an obsessed ex-lover. Eventually, this man ended up burying young Purity in a homemade wooden box alive. She died.
Shawn: It's like this - whether it's real or not, it affected Corey very much, the thought of it - so it was able to influence him - the song is not directly one hundred percent about it.
Corey: I still think its real - see the thing whether it's true or not, it's a real story - that we read about - that fucked our whole world up - can you imagine a girl being buried in a box and having all this lecherous bullshit drip down on her from this guy? And thinking that there is hope, because this kid is taking some bizarre note to this guy he doesn't even know - thinking that you are holding on to the shirt of hope - and you wake up and you're dead you're buried in mud - they find the note about a week later shoved in a library book for gods sakes - it just hurts your head - it's a case of what is good and bad in people - the box alone is reason enough to be like, 'I cant stand to be fucking human' - how can someone fucking do this to somebody? What is inside of us that is so fucking wrong?
He had written quotes from Edgar Allen Poe and lots of fucked up things on the box
Frail Limb Nursery
It's basically a clip of Purity telling a story to the young boy who took care of her while she was buried. He would bring her food in exchange for her telling him extravigant stories.
Get This
The meaning of Get This is all too clear - the music industry nowadays is littered with fucking bullshit bands, locally, continentally and world-wide, and it makes Corey fucking (sic). (Limp Dickzkit)
Despise
Almost the same as Get This.
515
Slipknot is about what parts of the dark world I particularly despise.
Gently is about stepping into the "Umbra" or "Spirit World". It's accomplished with the help of any reflective surface.
Do Nothing/Bitch Slap is about getting back at the Left-wing for trying to take away our guns, and other personal freedoms. The back sound "ooh-ooh" is done by Josh.
Only One is from the viewpoint of a Garou who plays the part of the peacekeeper most of the time, only to be laughed at by his peers. Finally, he steps up and shows them he means business
T & T isn't really about anything.
Confessions is a letter from a father to a son from whom he's been separated for about 17 years. It arrives about the time of the boy's first transformation. It was written by Donnie Steele. Only Paul likes this song.
Some Feel is basically the rantings of a "Leach", or vampire. I personally hate them.
Killers Are Quiet is about a "Pale One", which is a Garou that has been "embraced" by the Kindred.
Dogfish rising: "We recorded it in the control room of SR Audio. It's supposed to sound that way. We put it together and recorded it in about 45 minutes." |
