This Cold Black

[Intro: Corey Taylor]

Welcome home

[Verse 1: Corey Taylor, Clown & Chris Fehn]

Mother nature is a coward (Mother nature is a whore)

No more presence, no more power (I pray for death, by the hour)

Cut another smile into me (Into me is all you are)

My artifice won't recognize me (You won't find me anymore)

Post-traumatic war machines

The pessimists still won't believe

Throw away my past mistakes

It's all I came to feel

Let my weapons be your children

Let my armies be your damned

Try to suffer on in silence

Try to stop me if you can

[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Clown, Chris Fehn & Paul Gray]

Pneumatic destroyer

Pathetic seducer

Distortion sufficient

Some day, (Some day) one day (One day)

We'll live our lives again

[Verse 2: Corey Taylor & Chris Fehn]

My ghosts have found their way back home

I have every right to kill my own (Every right to kill my own)

I am something now that never could exist

My anguish conquers all

Pay the price and watch me fall

My only key is broken

My broken key is only me

[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Clown, Chris Fehn & Paul Gray]

Pneumatic destroyer

Pathetic seducer

Distortion sufficient

Some day, (Some day) one day (One day)

We'll live our lives again

[Bridge: Corey Taylor]

You utter waste of tired flesh

It doesn't matter if you can't progress

Even now they still create me

Give me your ignorance, irritate me

I am made of the same debris

You want it all, but you didn't want me

Hypocrite with no real use

I'm alive, what's your excuse?

[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Clown, Chris Fehn & Paul Gray]

Pneumatic destroyer

Pathetic seducer

Distortion sufficient

Some day, (Some day) one day (One day)

We'll live our lives again

[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Clown, Chris Fehn & Paul Gray]

Pneumatic destroyer

Pathetic seducer

Distortion sufficient

Some day, (Some day) one day (One day)

We'll live our lives again

[Outro: Corey Taylor, Clown, Chris Fehn, & Paul Gray]

We'll live our lives again
