the dying song

Slipknot

Put your hands into the water
let your mouth go sick and dry
Put your life into your death now
let them sing until you die
Die, die, die, yeah!

Radical, rather than rhetorical
babble like an oracle
Why am I always in your debt?

Father and the son and the holy ghost
communist comatose
Show me all the wagers are a bet

The middle of a nuclear winter is a modern
Achievement of the retro apocalyptic horde
Satan, you must be mistaken
there are no more satans
Only the bosses on the board

Forget deny ignore nice try it's you
Regret rely remorse inside of you

Maybe you've been down too long?

The heart begins to suffer
when the soul has given up
And the flesh is barely more than bone
When no one else is listening
only when you've had enough
Time to sing this dying song alone

Put your hands into the water
let your mouth go sick and dry
Put your life into your death now
let them sing until you die
Die, die, die, yeah!

Maybe you've been down too long?

Think hard you bastards
you're gonna tell me why
If I don't get an answer
you're gonna sing and die

Think hard you bastards
you're gonna tell me why
If I don't get an answer
you're gonna sing and die

The heart begins to suffer
when the soul has given up
And the flesh is barely more than bone
When no one else is listening
only when you've had enough
Time to sing this dying song alone

Put your hands into the water
let your mouth go sick and dry
Put your life into your death now
let them sing until you die

Put your hands into the water
let your mouth go sick and dry
Put your life into your death now
let them sing until you die
