Lyrics

Headless

I think it's obvious we are a mess, we cut against the grain
It's contagious how we live
If you're curious of the valiance, I can show you, wait

'Cause I forget all of this is obvious

We're entirely insane, they claim
They wanna climb into our brain waves

I know you're wondering how the two of us, we adapt these traits
I can teach you how we play
And you're curious how the brilliance controls you, wait

'Cause I forget all of this is obvious

We're entirely insane, they claim
They'd like to violate our brain waves

You seek desire (stop, think, show what you fear)
Our desire (stop, think, dying out there) but
Ooh, your attempt is useless
Ooh, your attempt is useless

Sway from the top off the ledge
Swim in a bottomless lake
It's true

We are entirely insane, we'd claim
And you'd like to dive into our brain waves

You seek desire (stop, think, show what you fear)
Our desire (got made, flying out there)
Real desire (stop, think, shows we're losing)
True desire (stop, think I'm nowhere)

Ooh, your attempt is useless
Ooh, your attempt is useless

    Beautiful and brutal: Deftones transform Crystal Palace into metal's new temple

    "I’ve been saving myself just for you," Chino Moreno tells the crowd, just a day after Deftones pulled out of their Glastonbury slot due to illness. Whether that’s sincere or not, it hardly matters. By the time they hit the stage at Crystal Palace Park on Sunday night, Deftones are in peak form.
