Slipknot – Wherein Lies Continue lyrics
[Intro]
Thou shalt not

[Verse 1]
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 fucking anything
But now my conscience is contradicting everything

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The ending's the same
The world will not change
The answer is clear

[Verse 2]
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 running
We're dropping seconds in a glass 'til we die
We only wanna believe in fucking everything
But we're alive, and we're not accepting anything

[Pre-Chorus 2]
The ending's the same
The world will not change
The answer is clear
Annihilation

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
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 fucking anything
But my solace is I can handle everything

[Pre-Chorus 3]
The ending's the same
The world will not change
The answer is clear
Obliteration

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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

    The words "thou shalt not" are a direct cue for the songs mood. The message is, your mind is yours, develop as your own, and do not let something such as a book, idea, or group fully influence the way you would like to live. "you had better choose, before they take away your chance to decide" is a perfect example of the whole tone of what some might say religion is becoming. A choice in which you are judged for. That choice serves no relevance, however, some feel as though it should.
