Wherein Lies Continue

Singer:Slipknot

Album:All Hope Is Gone

"Thou shalt not"

Kill your fathers

destroy another life

Question everything we clung to for years

Live forever

design a better death

Confuse a liar with a savior from fear.

Create a myth and separate the chosen ones

Adolescent independence dominion

I only wanna believe in fuckin' anything

But now my conscience is contradicting everything.

The ending's the same

The world will not change

The answer is clear.

Tell your mothers they have no sons or daughters

Blame yourselves because your children are mine

We are orphans

but we are not forgotten

And we will find a way to save us this time.

We can run

but we are tired of runnin'

We're droppin' seconds in a glass 'til we die

We only wanna believe in fuckin' everything

But we're alive and we're not accepting anything.

The ending's the same

The world will not change

The answer is clear

Annihilation.

I won't control or restrain things I do not understand

Now I realize I'm stronger

better

They gave to me now I give to you the means to burn the thoughts I had

Now I realize I'm stronger

better

more.

We have to save ourselves.

We have to save ourselves.

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

Oh

I will never become another piece

Inside the paralytic construct I hate.

Live forever? Well

I would rather die

At least I'd know I wasn't theirs to create.

This is yours

but you had better choose

Before they take away your right to decide

I guess I'll never believe in fuckin' anything

But my solace is

I can handle everything.

The ending's the same

The world will not change

The answer is clear

Obliteration.

I won't control or restrain things I do not understand

Now I realize I'm stronger

better

They gave to me

now I give to you

The means to burn the thoughts I had

Now I realize I'm stronger

better.

I won't control or restrain things I do not understand

Now I realize I'm stronger

better

They gave to me

now I give to you

The means to burn the thoughts I had

Now I realize I'm stronger

better

more.

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!

We have to save ourselves!
