Critical Darling Songtext

von Slipknot

Yeah

God's in a coma
Put faith in a life support
Running away won't feel the same
If you reach your metaphysical last resort
Oh, malevolence and purgatory give you pause
It's a miracle you haven't broken any laws
We are not entitled to surviving
So keep your friends and your enemies thriving

Good for you, what a cliché
Just not true, what a giveaway
What comes now can't be the last one falling down

Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?

What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven

Once again, we got suffocated
In a sick perversion of a spider's web
Crawling over all the spent digested pieces
Celebrate the dead
Here come all the judging eyes
Gotta pave the road with your best intentions
I only wish you could picture a future
That doesn't resemble your crazy inventions

Good on you, I don't mean it
Dream come true, I don't need it
What goes up? Another hollow one must come down

Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?

What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven

A mirror only works if you open your eyes
But even then you have to understand what's inside
The easy part is always hardest to see
I know you'll never guess, but darling, you're so critical
Darling, you're so critical
Oh, you're so critical
Oh, this is a cave-in
The weight of the catalyst
Just wait, let the games begin
Gonna tell you all about it for the savages

Good for you, not another one
Just not true, not another one
What comes now? This world is falling down

Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?

What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven

It's begun
Oh, you're so critical
Yeah
Oh, you're so critical, critical, critical, critical
Critical, critical, critical, critical
