Slipknot - Sulfur Lyrics

My guilt and my shame always sell me short -
Always feel the same
And my face and my soul always wear me thin -
Always under control
But the longest hours you'll have in your life
Are the ones you sit through to know if you're right
So I'll wait, but I pray that I'm wrong
Because I think I know what's going on

So let me get this straight… the only will is my own
I do whatever I want and stay alone
All my decisions make it untouchable and tainted
I'm gonna suffer for the rest of my life
But I will always find a way to survive
I'm not a failure, but I know what it's like
I can take it or leave it… or die

STAY - you don't always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won't run away
There's something inside me that feels
Like breathing in sulfur…

My life is undone - and I'm a sinner to most
But a sage to some
And my Gods are untrue - I'm probably wrong,
But I'm better than you
And the longest hours I've had in my life
Were the ones I went through to know I was right
So I'm safe, but I'm a little outside
I'm gonna laugh when I'm buried alive

STAY - you don't always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won't run away
There's something inside me that feels
Like breathing in sulfur…

LIKE BREATHING IN SULFUR

STAY - you don't always know where you stand
‘Til you know that you won't run away
There's something inside me that feels
Like breathing in sulfur…

LIKE BREATHING IN SULFUR
