slipknot - solway firth lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
today, up on this hill, i’m counting all the k!llers
they sway as they swarm, a look of gluttons in their eyes
they mutter as the body loses warmth
they pick your bones like locks inside a tomb
and take great care to not take care of you
here’s an unexplainable one
here’s an unexplainable one

[verse 1]
while i was learning to live, we all were living a lie
i guess you got what you wanted
so i will settle for a slaughterhouse soaked in blood and betrayal
it’s always somebody else, somebody else was me
you want the real smile?
or the one i used to practice not to feel like a failure?

[chorus]
i don’t need you to do it for me
i don’t need you to understand
i don’t need you to hide it from me
i just want to feel like any other man
i won’t show you the whole story
i won’t show you the aftermath
i won’t show you my allegory
don’t look away

[post-chorus]
here’s an unexplainable one
here’s an unexplainable one
here’s an unexplainable one

[verse 2]
i’m not ahead of my time, i just drew the first breath
if i’m alive tomorrow
i will alleviate the pressure by cutting you out of me
i found my bottom line dead on the front lines
i know i’ll never go home
so set fire to your ships and past regrets and be free

[chorus]
i don’t need you to do it for me
i don’t need you to understand
i don’t need you to hide it from me
i just want to feel like any other man
i won’t show you my whole story
i won’t show you the aftermath
i won’t show you my allegory
don’t look away

[post-chorus]
here’s an unexplainable one
what have you done?
what have you done?
yeah

[outro]
oh, while i was learning to live, you taught me how to die
i guess i got what i wanted
another needle in the back through purified scarification
it wasn’t somebody else, you f-cking did it to me
you want a real smile?
i haven’t smiled in years
