Slipknot - Orphan (Audio)

Slipknot’s new album ‘The End, So Far’ is coming September 30. Pre-order your copy here:

LYRICS:
I wept when I realized there were no more demons left to conquer
An opportunity to show my feelings with skin so thick you swear it was armor
A penitentiary that only lets the oxygen out
I wasn’t ready for a version of the truth to get out
I’m getting desperate- I wouldn’t want to fester in another bad dream
I am a Man of Extremes- I found the Flesh and I’m liking it
I’ll put an end to all the fucking psychobabble
We eat the Meat cause the Meat had a soul
We take the lives cause to hurt makes us whole
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD A CLUE OR KNEW MY NAME
YOU WANT TO KNOW THE STORY? TAKE MY PAIN-I AM READY-THE LIE IS HEARD
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD INTENT TO KEEP MY BLAME
YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHO THE FUCK I AM?
I AM THE ORPHAN… THE ONE WHO KILLED YOUR WORLD
Keeping up appearances with acts of attrition
It doesn’t matter cause I know you’ll never listen
Before- you knew it when you saw now you say you never knew it
It was all a big conspiracy
We come together when the Hands of Fate let go
Is there anybody left to fill this hole?
This shit… will never wash off- give yourself a medal… I swear I fuckin’ give up
We’re nothing special, just an accidental tweak of the freak
An evolution of the kennel in the fetish you seek
There’s still a part of me that’s dying in a dumpster
The one who rose is a motherfucking monster
I’ve seen the future and it’s simply burning/ I wasn’t put here to be so discerning
You want the world to be dissatisfied? You don’t care, so why the fuck should I?
Fuck, should I sell myself to stay alive?
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD A CLUE OR KNEW MY NAME
YOU WANT TO KNOW THE STORY? TAKE MY PAIN-I AM READY-THE LIE IS HEARD
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD INTENT TO KEEP MY BLAME
YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHO THE FUCK I AM?
I AM THE ORPHAN… THE ONE WHO KILLS-THE ONE WHO KILLED YOUR WORLD
Everyone Has Something. Someone Here Has Everything.
Tell me all about it- I love to hear it- the way I ruin everything I touch
I never thought I’d get to say I’m sorry, but then again I think you ask too much
Too White 2B Black/Too Black 2B Blue/Too Sick 2B Me/Too Fucked 2B You
I only wonder if I’ll live to see the end of the road- it always gets me nowhere
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD A CLUE OR KNEW MY NAME
YOU WANT TO KNOW THE STORY? TAKE MY PAIN-I AM READY-THE LIE IS HEARD
I AM NOT THE SAME/YOU NEVER HAD INTENT TO KEEP MY BLAME
YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHO THE FUCK I AM?
I AM THE ORPHAN… THE ONE WHO KILLED YOUR WORLD
EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING. SOMEONE HERE HAS EVERYTHING.
I AM THE ORPHAN… THE ONE WHO- KILLS…

[dimebagsoul]

The drums in that song... I have no words, just a masterpiece

[donttakefelixscheesestick]

My ears: yes
My neck: yes
My double bass pedal: ah shit here we go again

[evang]

Man this album gets better and better with each listen.

[Satan-nwlv]

Slipknot: Craig you're adpoted

Craig:

[graywolf]

Jay showed Slipknot fans what he's made of on this record!

[SpectralUmbreon]

“I am the Orphan. The one who killed your world”
Killers are Quiet
Craig

[arthursamueldrums]

Jay really proved the haters wrong on this album. Joey was amazing but Jay has done a great job filling his shoes.

[fatalbertandernie]

Little known fact, the “picture” of Craig is really just a six minute video of his morning routine. THE MORE YOU KNOW.

[peterpike]

"I wept when I realized there were no more demons left to conquer." <-- The end of every Doom playthrough.

[TheTokelosh]

Jay must be exhausted after this song, the drumming is insane.

[Eman-xzpr]

God I absolutely love how Corey just seamlessly switches between low and higher tones. It just sounds amazing.

[americanmisfit]

Jay didn't skip leg day on this track

[BanditoBurrito]

I love Craig. He’s got one of the “scariest” masks but comes across so sad, in a good melancholic way. It’s nice to have a silent “character” as opposed to trying to be an attention-desperate rockstar.

[aussiedrummer]

“EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING! SOMEONE HERE HAS EVERYTHING!”

That could sound dangerous with 60, 000 people screaming.

[mengaoatemorrer]

25 years later and they're still one of the coolest bands to ever exist.

[micka]

The whole album is just pure fire but this song... simply amazing

[Divine_Serpent_Geh]

That final scream is something straight off Iowa. I’ve missed those for so long, so filled with rage and pain.

[Disasterpiece]

Playing the "Everyone has something, someone here has everything" part LIVE will absolutely start to tear apart buildings around. Outstanding ending of the orphan.

[itpennywise]

I don't care what the new generation says, metal is the best genre.

[kinoulowl]

Anyone else love Corey little evil laugh at the end?
