Slipknot

Producer: Sean MacMahon

[Verse 1]
She looked so beautiful in her white dress
But with red spots is when she looked best
Skin so soft, her body so warm
Loved her too much to let her come to harm
Skin so pale, her blood was so warm
Loved her too much to let her come to harm
I search for the sign, I reach for the word
It's come to far, now we begun
One small piece of her, I kept for myself
A lock of her hair lay upon a shelf

[Verse 2]
Every ounce of strength I tossed into a knife
See her broken, I deserve a better life
Every ounce of strength I tossed into a knife
See her broken, I deserve a better life

[Bridge]
I've brought the killer forth
My mind's racked with guilt
Bedsheets tied in knots
I feel what she felt
I still can feel, I still can feel
The pain is real, I'm not dead yet
Visions of my hands, lots of torturing
As I slowly die, these windows laugh at me
Did i-i-it, dot
Did di-did it, dot
Did i-i-it, done
Did i-i-it, done

[Outro]
I drift away, I drift away, I drift away, I drift away
I drift away (I drift away) (I drift away)
I drift away (I drift away) (I drift away)
I drift away (I drift away) (I drift away)
I drift away (I drift away) (I drift away)
