Slipknot — Welcome

[Verse 1] I am a product - of your conduct The uncontrollable urges that made me Have made us all - Are you proud? Do you even care? You taught us all to lie - that's how we made it here You should've buried the truth with your secrets But you were far too impressed with your pretense Now as far as I know, I don't know anything 'Cause you made damn sure I wasn't anything [Chorus 1] Distractions, reactions! The only way to go is to go away! Discarded, retarded! Before I let you go, you have to let me! [Verse 2] Clawed away from human clay We are the broken shards the art disarray Before you condemn, you rape them, feed us meconium Stunt our growth from our souls to our throat - cut! You shouldn't wall us up with your apathy But you did, and now you're only growing enemies This is the catalyst, the alpha, the first breed 'Cause you made damn sure, now we're everything [Chorus 2] Distractions, reactions The only way to go is to go away Discarded, retarded Before I let you go, you have to let me! Much to my surprise, I will wake up And follow the path of the ones I am made of This time… I won't give in I will save you from my sins [Refrain] What is wrong with this? Manipulation Violence and chaotic Go! [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Ensconced… ('onch) in all that's wrong (wrong) I slam you shut… (shut) I can only take so much How many times do I have to mistreat you? Constantly biting my hand as I feed you Maybe now, you'll understand severity I'll sum it up with the best of amount of brevity Welcome to the transformation Welcome to annihilation Welcome to the man that wanted Everything, but couldn't have it [Chorus 2] Distractions, reactions The only way to go is to go away Discarded, retarded Before I let you go, you have to let me! Much to my surprise, I will wake up And follow the path of the ones I am made of This time… I won't give in I will save you from my sins [Outro] Save you from my sins! (Yeah!) Oh, save you from my sins!
