Slipknot — Not Long for This World

[Verse 1] Cutting and scratching Scar the same Angles up Edges are soft Broken veins I know I'm bitter Full of rage You'll be too What I've been through All is just a difficult stage [Chorus 1] So decide Tell me I'm gonna die It's already gone away Decide Tell me, are you not alive? It wasn't really hard to say Hard to say Not long for this world [Verse 2] Carving or biting We bleed for keeps Out of control Into the cold Hell repeats God, I'm starving Spreading me thin I am a story, my soul is for sale Trust is such an arrogant thing [Chorus 2] So decide Tell me I'm gonna die It's already gone away Decide Tell me, are you not alive? It wasn't really hard to say Hard to say Not long for this world Not long for this world [Bridge] I know this shit You ain't There's nothing mellow with the drama You live and pray You like your secrets to be kept in the family You don't get credit for you're really good behavior You'll be a failure You don't seem to get what I'm saying And I'm sick and tired of explaining Good night, goodbye, good luck There's nothing worse than a good manifesto I'm not impressed now [Pre-Chorus] 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, you will mean it [Chorus 3] So decide Tell me I'm gonna die It's already gone away Decide Tell me, are you not alive? It wasn't really hard to say Hard to say Not long for this world Not long for this world Not long for this world [Outro] 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
