Slipknot – Metabolic lyrics
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't never be you
Now all I do is sit around
And wish I could forget you

My demise
I took a life worth 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 worth 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
