Butcher's Hook

[Verse 1: Corey Taylor]

Contrite, commercial

Arrogance, leprosy

Consume the bitch, the fucker

Mindless, like a child

For pity's sake, I've had all that I can take

We try, but in the end, we'll see

There are no more codes

Only who is shit and who's still free

I was gonna change the world with honor and aggression

No one listened, no one cared

All they saw was misdirection

[Chorus: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

[Verse 2: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

I don't want you anymore (I don't want you anymore)

I don't need you anymore (I don't need you anymore)

Fingerprint of God

Your new religions covet

This vessel wasn't built to last

But I will live forever

You'll never have to say surrender

Because you're so part of it

My total honesty has no place for tomorrow

Guilty pleasures give me pain

Tell my people I can't follow

[Chorus: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

[Bridge: Corey Taylor]

You'll never censor me

You better cherish me

My reason has a voice

Freedom's gone but we'll always have a choice

My present future tense

It doesn't make much sense

I'm coming after you

Fuck you all, I'm the only point of view

[Guitar Solo: Jim Root]

[Break: Corey Taylor]

Oh, violence and dollar signs

Another processed piece of shit

You hide your fault in diamonds

And give away the only

Cost, you can't delay the inevitable

Lost, don't understand the incredible path

I'm losing ground, but I won't care when I go down

[Chorus: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

[Chorus: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

(Go ahead and disagree)

I'm giving up again

[Outro: Corey Taylor]

I'm giving up again

I'm giving up again
