Slipknot - Medicine for the Dead lyrics

[Slipknot - Medicine for the Dead lyrics]

Yeah

What happens in the dark feels the
Way the blackout never does
Turning the gears, sharpen the
Blades of sheer terror, these fevered ones
But tell me the secret things
Show me the bloody kings
Let's play a game where the
Winners always lose their heads

Time screams by, life is mine
Time screams by, life is yeah

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me

Before it could begin, the shooting stopped
The silence always comes
Now where do we go? Because
You’re walking the streets, it's no better
(There's something wrong)
Pull at your privacy, a product of lunacy
Don't be surprised when the losers want
To win but then again

Time screams by, life is mine
Time screams by, life is yeah

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead

Yeah

Where does it end and tell
Me where does it go?
If evil exists, then only evil can know
When do we run and are they letting us in?
Where does it end and tell me where to begin

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
(Medicine for the dead)
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
You have to drink me

(You know you're dying slowly, dying slowly
Dying, dying, right?
Know that you're dying slowly dying slowly
Dying, dying right now)
