Come What(ever) May

[Verse 1]

Can you take away every single day

That we have given to another false prophet?

Can you give us all a reason not to fall

Before you take away another broken promise?

Show your pretty face, hide the bitter taste

You're still the rapist of an entire nation

You wanna be the man? You gotta be a man

But you are nothing but a sad insinuation

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, how can we ever live this down?

How can we ever live this down?

[Verse 2]

Keep your fingers crossed, the truth is at a loss

Big decision for an ordinary coward

The only problem is your fuckin' rhetoric

We're more in danger than before you took power

Now it's just a game; God, you'll never change

You'd sell us out if you could only find a buyer

You don't give a shit, as long as idiots

Are in your corner, you could set us all on fire

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, how can we ever live this down?

How can we ever live this down?

[Chorus]

You never wanted to be

They only wanted a parody

You want the world to be free

What the hell is free about it?

[Solo: Jim Root]

[Verse 3]

Now we've reached the end, just get it over with

But this is building to an adamant conclusion

Come whatever may, there's gonna be a day

When we have figured out a plausible solution

Everything you've done is killing everyone

A little smile on a homicidal bastard

You wanna be a man? You better have a plan

Another failure is a guaranteed disaster

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, how can we ever live this down?

How can we ever live this down?

[Chorus 1]

You never wanted to be

They only wanted a parody

You want the world to be free

You only wanted the world...

[Chorus 2]

You never wanted to be

They only wanted a parody

You want the world to be free

But what the fuck is free about it?

What the fuck is free about it?

What the fuck is free about it?
