Lyrics of Critical Darling by Slipknot
intro
Yeah
verse
God's in a coma
Put faith in a life support
Running away won't feel the same
If you reach your metaphysical last resort
Oh, malevolence and purgatory give you pause
It's a miracle you haven't broken any laws
We are not entitled to surviving
So keep your friends and your enemies thriving
pre-chorus
(Good for you) What a cliché
(Just not true) What a giveaway
(What comes now?) can't be the last one falling down
pre-chorus
Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?
chorus
What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven
verse
Once again, we got suffocated
In a sick perversion of a spider's web
Crawling over all the spent digested pieces
Celebrate the dead
Here come all the judging eyes
Gotta pave the road with your best intentions
I only wish you could picture a future
That doesn't resemble your crazy inventions
verse
(Good on you) I don't mean it
(Dream come true) I don't need it
(What goes up?) Another hollow one must come down
pre-chorus
Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?
chorus
What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven
verse
A mirror only works if you open your eyes
Even then you have to understand what's inside
The easy part is always hardest to see
I know you'll never guess, but darling, you're so critical
verse
Darling, you're so critical
Oh, you're so critical
Oh, this is a cave-in
The weight of the catalyst
Just wait, let the games begin
Gonna tell you all about it for the savages
verse
(Good for you) Not another one
(Just not true) Not another one
(What comes now?) This world is falling down
pre-chorus
Every time this happens, I'm breaking a promise I made to a version of me
Why can't I covet and keep it away from the leeches who want to deceive?
chorus
What is coming has begun
It's something that you gotta see
We lie and say that it's too late for some redemption
What is coming has begun
An ending I won't live to see
We tell ourselves it can't be hell if there's no heaven
outro
It's begun
verse
Oh, you're so critical
verse
Yeah
outro
Oh, you're so critical, critical, critical, critical
Critical, critical, critical, critical
