Slipknot - AOV

Black dirty teeth, in the crease.
Was the proof too good to be believed?
It's the cunt with the tongue
Who belongs on broken knees.
So far, it occurs to me that everybody in the world is afraid of me
Just one more sin and down we go.
But the news is out, and I think I'm going to
Kill myself, or f*ck myself, or tell myself.
About the only thing that matters now.

We bury what we fear the most, approaching original violence.
Is the silence where you hide it? 'Cause I don't recognize you anymore.
To each his own… life can do with one less watered-down excuse.
If this is over, you can tell me it's no use… use
Just tell me it's over.

Today, we will deceive our better selves
Into assimilating pain from something else
Put on your face and show me why
Behind the scenes we had to simply comply
Now, the community doesn't feel any better than it used to be
I want to be a judge in a criminal case, you covered up, did you cultivate?
Be yourself, not yourself, know yourself,
'Cause no one seems to know you now.

We carry what we can't control, approaching original violence.
In the silence, there's a nihilist… who doesn't care, and never did.
To each his own… life can do with one less watered-down excuse.
There comes a time when we can't take the same abuse.
If this is over, you can tell me it's no use… use

Drug out, pissed on, everything's the same
B*tch and moan, it doesn't matter, nothing's gonna change.
I don't wanna watch another brother f*cking die
So discarded, fallen by the side.
Don't tell me it's the only way,
Just another reason why you never take the bait.
The trials, the scheming, the burden of the beast.
Both your faces turn your back on everything you fought to save a dream.
Now that it's over… when this is over…

We are the angels' fear to tread, approaching original violence.
We're the silence, we'll deny it.
We can't continue on like this.
To each his own… life can do with one less watered-down excuse.
There comes a time when we can't take the same abuse.
My god, it would've taken just one word to stay from you.
Now that this is over, you can tell me it's no use…
Now that this is over, you can tell me it's no use… use
Just tell me it's over.

It doesn't matter what you say.
It doesn't matter what you do.
We can't continue on like this.
