Slipknot — Override

[Verse 1] The ghosts have given up, familiar haunts have had enough Too much thought will give you doubt, now they found you It's safer in a cage, they can tell you what to say All your dreams come with a price, so they own you But what did you expect? Was it too much to protect? Did you understand they had selfish intentions When they were pulling you in opposite directions? [Chorus] You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground We are the override We are the override [Verse 2] The dead don't know, the dead are lonely, a fascination fades When this mercy execution says it's over You follow as preferred, now their plans are undeterred Who can bring them in to supersede? it's over Even hate starts out as love Sometimes when it's all you want Maybe satisfaction will take you for granted When all that's left is the emotion you abandoned [Chorus] You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground We are the override We are the override [Verse 3] You clawed out from nothing, and I sent you back Fought to the metal and law's what you lacked Covered in sores, you cannot be the one You are the answer to why we have risen [Bridge] You are not the way You are judged to be afraid You are simple and unchanged We believe you should give up Give up, give up, give up, give up Satisfaction will take you for granted When all that's left is a life you abandoned [Chorus] You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground You don't know the hell that's coming Everybody get on the ground We are the override We are the override
