Lyrics of Red Flag by Slipknot

intro

Yeah

verse

Past just saving, this is like escaping
Running wild in the middle of weeds
Eyes can't see me, careful with your breathing
Get away, or they get to feed
Strength's not enough, be defiant
You're looking for a reason to suffer, you'll find it
But if you want to live to be better, begin it
Your energy will keep you from getting exhausted and purge it

pre-chorus

You don't own me
You can't hold me
This is beginning
You are an ending

chorus

They'll smother their own just to feel you
They'll get you alone just to steal you
They'll eat you alive just to kill you
Nobody will ever have you
You used to be something special, now you're nothing new

verse

Vultures salivate poison to exterminate
It's the dawn of the Renaissance
Emancipation, cattle on displacement, you want
To reason, but there is no response
I won't allow this to happen
Another situation I feel like I'm trapped in
Nothing is my business, and business is gone
I wish you all would fuck off and go back to hell where you belong

pre-chorus

You don't own me
You can't hold me
This is beginning
You are an ending

chorus

They'll smother their own just to feel you
They'll get you alone just to steal you
They'll eat you alive just to kill you
Nobody will ever have you
You used to be something special, now you're nothing new

bridge

Plague, don't panic
Don't believe the riddle that confuses you
Bitch, so manic
I can see the light that exposes you
So dramatic, now I'm so empathetic
Means the bigger the mouth that I can eat you with
Force of habit, God, you reek of your havoc
But consider the sources you've been tampering with

chorus

They'll smother their own just to feel you
They'll get you alone just to steal you
They'll eat you alive just to kill you
Nobody will ever have you
You used to be something special, now you're nothing
They'll smother their own just to feel you
They'll get you alone just to steal you
They'll eat you alive just to kill you
Nobody will ever have you
You used to be something special, now you're nothing new

outro

Now you're nothing
Now you're nothing
Now you're nothing new
New, new, new
Writer(s): James Root, Corey Taylor, Michael Crahan
