Slipknot Not Long For This World

Cutting or scratching, they scar the same

The angle is off, the edges are soft, the mark remains

I know I'm bitter and full of rage

You would be too, what I've been through

Knowledge is a difficult age

 

So decide

Tell me how I'm gonna die

'Cause I've already gone away

Decide

Tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn't really hard to see

Hard to see...

Not long for this world!

 

Carving or biting, we bleed for keeps

Out of control, into the cold, hell repeats

God, I'm starving, spreading me thin

Buying a story, my soul is for sale

Trust is such an arrogant thing

 

So decide

Tell me how I'm gonna die

'Cause I've already gone away

Decide

Tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn't really hard to see

Hard to see...

Not long for this world!

Not long for this world!

 

I KNOW THE SHIT YOU ATE

There's nothing mellow in the

DRAMA YOU LIVE AND BREATHE

You like your secrets to be

KEPT IN THE FAMILY

You don't get credit for your

RARE GOOD BEHAVIOR, GO BE A SAVIOR

You don't seem to get what I'm saying...

And I'm sick and tired of explaining

GOODNIGHT, GOODBYE, GOOD LUCK

There's nothing worse than a

GHOUL MANIFESTO, I'M NOT IMPRESSED THOUGH

 

The greatest conclusion that I ever had

Was when I woke up and said, "That's enough!"

Living never felt so bad

You don't accept it, and I don't care

Bury yourself above all your guilt

When you're ready it'll be there

 

So decide

Tell me how I'm gonna die

'Cause I've already gone away

Decide

Tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn't really hard to see

Hard to see...

Not long for this world!

Not long for this world!

Not long for this world!

 

I was not long for this world...

I was not long for this world...

I was not long for this world!

I was not long for this world!

I was not long for this world!

I was not long for this world!
