Absolute Zero

[Verse 1: Corey Taylor] The bloody angle/ the symmetry- your cheap adhesive isn't holding me My mouth is a gun I can shoot- I can show you the truth And I don’t need a reason to lie to you No pun intended/ no punishment- if I offended you, you needed it Ideas are the bombs in your mind- a fissure in time If you don’t have a weapon, you can’t have mine [Pre-Chorus] I can bleed if I want to bleed- I can fail if I feel the need This face is my last confession- this life… it feels like a prison [Chorus] Oh, I’m not afraid- I’m giving into grievances again You’re looking at an absolute zero I’m not the devil, but I won’t be your hero [Verse 2: Corey Taylor] The catatonic/ the sacrilege- your prima donnas are a privilege My god has a need to react- it’s as simple as that It’s better just to settle than face the facts [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] [Bridge] One thing that I can’t stand is when the minutes fight the second hand I’ll waste a lifetime’s worth just to cling to one more day No fucking quarter/ no premiums- the world is stuck in delirium Man is a four-letter word- it’s really absurd The hate isn't fake it’s just inferred [Chorus] Oh, I’m not afraid- I’m giving into grievances again I’m down to absolute zero- another zealot with the weight of the fucking world Oh, I’m not afraid- and I will let you down as I hold you in You’re looking at an absolute zero I’m not the devil, but I won’t be your hero
