Slipknot - The Negative One testo

[Verse 1]
Fire and caffeine, a lot of nicotine
I'm gonna burn so I better tell you everything
The competition, the superstition
Nevermind cause you're never gonna give in
It's acquired and that's how you like it
The same trauma and a different disguise
Bound to walk with a target on my back
At least I'm ready for another attack

[Chorus 1]
The lord of lies, the morning star
You had to be set free, opposing sides
Your choices are, the negative one and me

[Verse 2]
Svengali, wail with the enemies
I never follow but I never make apologies
Your divisions, are gonna get you
Because you won't disappoint each other
Settle for the cynical, you're so political
You're getting ready cause the first move is critical
Reciprocity, somebody's listening
Until we learn from our lies we can never die

[Chorus 2]
The lord of lies, the morning star
You had to be set free, opposing sides
Your choices are, the negative one and me
The negative one in me

[Refrain]
I hope you live to see the day
When your world comes up in flames
And as you die you see my face
You're the only one to blame(yeah) (fuck)

[Bridge]
The Prescient / The Nascent / The Quotient (THEY ALL WILL FALL)
The Cystic / Symbolic / Condition (SYSTEMIC)
Egregious / Replete With / These Legions (CONTAMINATE)
Succumb To / The Selfish / Creation (YOUR FAILURE)

[Verse 3]
Know I got ability, divisibility
I point a finger but it's always looking back at me
The centerpiece pulling on the mechanism
Unearthing skies of the cataclysm
When the innocent begin to circumvent
The color fades, but the picture is vibrant
What do you believe? Does it matter now?
Turn away, the killer is that of now

[Chorus 2]
The Lord of lies, the morning star
You had to be set free, opposing sides
Your choices are, the negative one and me
The negative one and me

[Refrain]
I hope you live to see the day
When your world comes up in flames
And as you die you see my face
You're the only one to blame

[Chorus 2]
The Lord of lies, the morning star
You had to be set free, opposing sides
Your choices are, the negative one
The negative one

[Outro]
The negative one
The negative one
The negative one
The negative one and me
The negative one and me
The negative one and me
