Slipknot - Pulse Of The Maggots Lyrics

Slipknot - Pulse Of The Maggots Video

This is the year where hope fails you

The test subjects run the experiment

And the bastard you know is the hero you hate

But cohesion is possible if we try

There's no reason; there's no lesson

No time like the present

Tell me right now, what have you got to lose?

What have you got to lose, except your soul?

Who's with us?

 

I fight for the unconventional

My right and it's unconditional

I can only be as real as I can

The disadvantage is I never knew the plan

This isn't just a way to be a martyr

I can't walk alone any longer

I fight for the ones who can't fight

And if I lose, at least I tried

 

We, we are the new diabolic

We, we are the bitter bucolic

If I have to give my life, you can have it

We, we are the pulse of the maggots

 

I won't be the inconsequential

I won't be the wasted potential

I can make it as severe as I can

Until you realize you'll never take a stand

It isn't just a one-sided version

We've dealt with a manic subversion

I won't let the truth be perverted

And I won't leave another victim deserted

 

We, we are the new diabolic

We, we are the bitter bucolic

If I have to give my life, you can have it

We, we are the pulse of the maggots

 

Do you understand?

Yes

 

Say it again, say it again

We won't die

 

We fight till no one can fight us

We live and no one can stop us

We pull, but we're pushed too far

And the advantage is, the bottom line is

We never had to fight in the first place

We only had to spit back in their face

We won't walk alone any longer

What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger
