Slipknot 2014 Lyrics

SKEPTIC Lyrics

[Intro: Shawn "Clown" Crahan]
Pissed!

[Verse 1]
Only when the fates - commiserate
Do we get a little taste as unique
The libertine, know what I mean
Hiroshima on a Sunday
You had a gift - you were a gift
But there's always a goddamn catch
Blessing and a curse, you made it work
The universe seems so much smaller

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Legend, bastard, Best Friend, why?
Why do the limits have to realign?
Hero, martyr, Mystery God
Hhe was the best of us

[Chorus 1]
The world will never see another crazy motherfucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you

[Verse 2]
Never be the same, I want the blame
To be assigned to the guiltiest one
It can't be done, because the son
Was a victim they arrested

I'm so fucking pissed at all of this
You gotta know that you are sorely missed
Miracles are real. They help you heal
They make you feel... like things will get better

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Father, brother, scapegoat, why?
Why did we only get this time?
Fighter, icon, skeptic God
Sstop taking the best of us

[Chorus 2]
I won't let you disappear
I will keep your soul alive if I can't have you here
History may have its share

of lunatics and stars

But the world will never see another crazy motherfucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you
The world will never see another crazy motherfucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you

[Bridge]
Skeptic (x6)

Where am I supposed to begin?
I'm killing for the karma again
Feed the meter in the machine
Believing is the way to be seen

GONE - are we alone?
GONE - are we alone?
GONE - are we alone?
GONE - we're not alone

[Chorus 3]
I can't let you disappear
I will keep your soul alive if I can't have you here
We were meant to be the kings
Rule the masses, run the risks
And keep our systems clean
History may have its share

of lunatics and stars

But the world will never see another crazy motherfucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you
The world will never see another crazy motherfucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you

[Outro]
The world will never see (will never see)
Another crazy motherfucker like you (like you)
Like you (like you)
Like you
