Not Long for This World

Slipknot

4

Cutting or scratching, they scar the same

Angle is off, edges are soft, mark remains

I know I′m bitter, full of rageYou would be too, what I've been through, knowledge is a difficult age

So decide, tell me how I′m gonna die

'Cause I've already gone away

Decide, tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn′t really hard to see, hard to see

Not long for this world

Carving or biting, we bleed for keeps

Out of control, into the cold, hell repeats

God, I′m starving, spreading me thin

Buying a story, my soul was for sale, trust is such an arrogant thing

So decide, tell me how I'm gonna die

′Cause I've already gone away

Decide, tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn′t really hard to see, hard to see

Not long for this world

Not long for this world

I know the shit you eat

There's nothing mellow in the drama you live and breathe

You like your secrets to be kept in the family

You don′t get credit for your rare good behavior, go be a savior

You don't seem to get what I'm saying

And I′m sick and tired of explaining

Goodnight, goodbye, good luck

There′s nothing worse than a ghoul manifesto, I'm not impressed though

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, it′ll be there

So decide, tell me how I'm gonna die

'Cause I′ve already gone away

Decide, tell me how you loved a lie

It wasn′t really hard to see, hard to see

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
