Aov - Slipknot
Black
Dirty thief
In the grease
Was the proof too good
to be believed?
Is the cunt
With the dumb
Who belongs on broken knees?
So far it occurs to me
That everybody in the world
is afraid of me
Just one more cent
and down we go
Now the news is out
And I think I'm going to
Kill myself
Or fuck myself
Or tell myself
About the only thing
that matters now
We bury what we fear the most
Approaching original violence!
Is the silence where you hide it?
Cuz I don't recognize you anymore
To each his own
I can do with one less watered
down excuse
If this is over you can
Tell me it's no use
Use!
Just tell me it's over!
Today
We will deceive
Our better selves
Into assimilating pain
from something else
Put on your face
And show me why
Behind the scenes
we had to simply comply
Now the community
Doesn't feel any better
than it used to be
I wanna be a judge
in a criminal case
You covered up,
did you come to be
Be yourself
Not yourself
Know yourself
Cuz no one
seems to know you now
We carry what we can't control
Approaching original violence
In the silence
There is a nihilist
Who does't care
And now they're dead
To each his own
I can do with one less
watered down excuse
There comes a time
when we can't
Take the same abuse
If this is over
you can tell me it's no use
Use!
Drug out bits
I'll never get to say
What you wanted doesn't matter
Nothing's gonna change
I don't wanna watch
another brother fucking die
So discarded, fall over the side
Don't tell me it's the only way
Just another reason
why you never take the bait
The trials, the screaming,
the burdens of the beast
Fucked your face
and turned your back on
Everything you thought
could save a try
We are the angels fear to tread
Approaching original violence
We're the silence
We'll deny it
We can't continue on like this
To each his own
I can do with one less
watered down excuse
There comes a time
when we can't
Take the same abuse
My God,
it won't take it just one
Reckless day from you
Now that this is over you can
Tell me it's no use
Now that this is over you can
Tell me it's no use
Use!
Just tell me it's over!
It doesn't matter what you say
It doesn't matter what you do
We can't continue on like this
