[Spoken: Corey Taylor]
Get it fuckin' right

[Verse 1: Corey Taylor]
I've known faces that have disappeared in time
Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
All my friends have pictures made to make you cry
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to
Calcify

[Chorus 1: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]
I ignore you
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

[Verse 2: Corey Taylor]
I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
I don't even try it
You had to be a liar just to infiltrate me
I'm still drowning

[Chorus 1: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]
I come toward you
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
Then I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

[Bridge: Corey Taylor]
Take this away
Take this away
I can feel you on my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get too close

[Chorus 2: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
I come toward you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

[Outro: Corey Taylor]
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away

[Spoken: Corey Taylor]
Do you want some more?
Motherfucker do you want some fuckin' more?

Slipknot is a metal group based in Des Moines, Iowa. They were formed in 1995, and are well known for their live shows and their image of nine masked performers. They are one of the most important bands of the NWOAHM (New Wave of American Heavy Metal).

The band released their demo album Mate, Feed, Kill, Repeat on October 31st, 1996. Slipknot went through several lineup changes before settling with their most known Sid Wilson, Joey Jordison, Paul Gray, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn “Clown” Crahan, Mick Thompson, and Corey Taylor.

This core line-up rose to the spotlight after their self-titled debut in 1999 which contained the breakout singles “Wait and Bleed” and “Spit it Out.” They would go on to release Iowa (2001), The Subliminal Verses (2004), and All Hope Is Gone (2008), and .5: The Gray Chapter (2014) and We Are Not Your Kind (2019). The band has sold millions of records worldwide.
