confessions

Slipknot

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.
