Birth Of The Cruel - Slipknot

Let him crave understanding

Let him crave your wisdom

Let him crave

Let him each promote

Father, my self-control

I'm just a Judas, lookin' for a silver line

And tomorrow is still a step behind

Hey, hey, drama, I'd love to be a waste of your time

Oh no, thanks so much for wasting mine

So hear me out

Let's hear it for the damaged

Who understands but the broken?

Developed in the arms of spite

I'm all fucked up and I make it look good

Adrenaline sight tonight

I'm overthrown

I'm over your throne

I'm over it

Sick, sickened, I'm sickening, I'm stricken by the fist

Blessed are the fires that have burned me

Listen to this, the lesson is, never underestimate the agony

Death of the fool, birth of the cruel

Remember how you spent the best part of forever

In a state of pure disease?

It was another thing altogether

To forget that you brought out the worst in me

Hey, karma, you don't feel like I do

You just wish you'd hate like I do

We are the bitter, the maladjusted and wise

Fighting off a generation too uptight

We're all dressed up with nobody to kill

The rhetoric stops tonight

I'm overthrown

I'm over your throne

I'm over it

Sick, sickened, I'm sickening, I'm stricken by the fist

Blessed are the fires that have burned me

Listen to this, the lesson is, never underestimate the agony

Death of the fool, birth of the, birth of the cruel, yeah

Now's not the time for denying

Shifting the focus to scare

Let's not forget we're all guilty

All three dimensions polluted by earnest despair

I'm overthrown

I'm over your throne

I'm overthrown

I'm over your throne

I'm over it

Let him crave understanding

Let him crave your wisdom

Let him crave

Let him each promote

Father, my self-control

That he can see, look in the enemy in front of him

Because cursed, not today, sucker

Go back to hell where you belong
