Dead Weight
[Intro: Corey Taylor]
Come on!
[Verse 1: Corey Taylor]
You help me survive, you're the reason I'm alive
Speak softly, cyanide passed from your mouth into mine
Your breathing sounds like the sickest music playing backwards in my head
Contagions, so hellacious
You can't find the words, so you scream instead
[Pre-Chorus: Corey Taylor]
This lifeless ordinary
My righteous unsuspecting
I have a secret, you are a dichotomy
[Chorus: Corey Taylor]
What won't kill me makes me
What won't love me hates me
What won't kill me dies
Come on!
[Verse 2: Corey Taylor]
You could help me hide, you could keep me inside
Heartbroken, petrified
What am I supposed to do if you don't try?
Mad symmetry, senseless poetry
Laying naked on my bed
Contracted and frustrated
You won't say a word and your eyes are dead
[Pre-Chorus: Corey Taylor]
This lifeless ordinary
My righteous unsuspecting
I have a secret, you are a dichotomy
[Chorus: Corey Taylor]
What won't kill me makes me
What won't love me hates me
What won't kill me dies
What won't kill me makes me
What won't love me hates me
What won't kill me dies
[Bridge]
The whole fucking world's against us dude, I swear to God
[Verse 3: Corey Taylor]
Do what I wanna do (Say what I wanna say)
Look how I wanna look (Write when I wanna write)
Act how I wanna act (Scream when I wanna scream)
Have anything I want (Think it's impossible)
Love who I wanna love (Hate who I wanna hate)
Think when I wanna think (Stay when I wanna stay)
Keep everything I got, talk when I wanna talk shit
Get away from me
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 4: Shawn Crahan]
I've never known anything, empty, shattered, nothing
I've never known anything, never did, never will
All that you know and all that you feel
And all that you see and all that you hate
These are the questions why
All you gotta do is die
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 5: Gage Crahan]
Who spits in my eye, who thinks they know my spite
This sustained, so cut your throat in disgusting lies
Don't take what's mine, all I have's inside
Rock revolution revolting, state your pride
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 6: Anders Colsefni]
Now as we fight into this bleeding room
I drink my fill of the agony, spilled from the womb
My eyes, in the dark I have seen images of my path in ashes
The room was burnt, like the fresh field on fire
In the dark as the vengeance crashes
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 7: Jim Corigliano]
All of this pushes me into isolation
I got the fear and hate, all the things I can't relate to
I am an island floating in a sea of shit, so
Alone and nearly drowning, I could care less, I am alone
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 8: Anthony Satone]
I know nothing inside your eyes
Pull them out and bleeding
I'm what you don't
I'm what's up, now you feel, what's up, now you feel
You get what you want now
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
[Verse 9: Corey Taylor]:
Fuck how I wanna fuck, 'cause I don't give a fuck
Fuck what you want, fuck what you want
Suck it if I want it sucked
You better suck me, your filthy mouth is fucked
Fuck you, I'm like a renegade, get the fuck up
Now let go of you, you better blow me
Fuck you'll be dying now, fuck you, aw man you ain't nothing now
[Hook]
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
Weight!
