Bury all your secrets in my skin
Come away with innocence, and leave me with my sins
The air around me still feels like a cage
And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again
So, if you love me, let me go
And run away before I know
My heart is just too dark to care
I can't destroy what isn't there
Deliver me into my fate
If I'm alone I cannot hate
I don't deserve to have you
Ooh, my smile was taken long ago
If I can change I hope I never know
I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light (without your light)
But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight
So, save your breath, I will not hear
I think I made it very clear
You couldn't hate enough to love
Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend
Then I could hurt you in the end
I never claimed to be a saint
Ooh, my own was banished long ago
It took the death of hope to let you go
Oh, oh
So, break yourself against my stones
And spit your pity in my soul
You never needed any help
You sold me out to save yourself
And I won't listen to your shame
You ran away, you're all the same
Angels lie to keep control
Ooh, my love was punished long ago
If you still care, don't ever let me know
If you still care, don't ever let me know

"Corey doesn't really write music for Slipknot – but, when he came over to hear the songs Paul Gray, (bassist) and I were working on for All Hope Is Gone, he showed me this… I had him lay a scratch track down in the studio. Then I went in late at night, without telling him, and laid down some drums… When he heard it the next day, he started crying. It's Corey's masterpiece." – Joey Jordison
It might be because of the anaesthetic injection I got (no more wisdom teeth, yay), but Käärijä´s “Online” as a song is absolutely beautiful. Especially since he finally got that fucking vacation.
What´s your favourite song of his you think deserves more love?
She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
She is everything to me
The unrequited dream
A song that no one sings
The unattainable
She's a myth that I have to believe in
All I need to make it real is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this
But I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me, won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
LORD OF THE LOST - The Heartbeat Of The Devil (Official Video) | Napalm ...
My empire feeds on me
Worn out, I'm a ghost
What could I do to bring you closer?
Stand with me on the edge of the sky
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Deep eyes, dark diamonds (dark diamonds)
A desperate silent cry (silent cry)
What could I do to make you free me?
Teach me to satisfy your desires
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel me
Come here and see me
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Born in flames
Fighting fire with fire
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
(The heartbeat of the devil)
Forged in pain
Drawing nigher and nigher
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
Come here and feel my heart
The heartbeat of the devil
The heartbeat of the devil
At first listen, this song wasn't a part of the most interesting ones for me on "The Awakening"... but I love its theme and message (which is honestly also true about the whole amazing album)! Can't believe it is already an year after it came out...
