Lyrics of Solway Firth by Slipknot
verse
Today, up on this hill
I'm counting all the killers
They sway as they swarm
A look of gluttons in their eyes
They mutter as the body loses warmth
They pick your bones like locks inside a tomb
And take great care to not take care of you
pre-chorus
Here's an unexplainable one
chorus
Here's an unexplainable one
verse
While I was learning to live
verse
We all were living a lie
I guess you got what you wanted
So I will settle for a slaughterhouse soaked in blood and betrayal
It's always somebody else
Somebody else was me
You want the real smile?
Or the one I used to practice
Not to feel like a failure?
chorus
I don't need you to do it for me
I don't need you to understand
I don't need you to hide it from me
I just want to feel like any other man
I won't show you the whole story
I won't show you the aftermath
I won't show you my allegory
Don't look away
chorus
Here's an unexplainable one
chorus
Here's an unexplainable one
chorus
Here's an unexplainable one
verse
I'm not ahead of my time
I just drew the first breath
If I'm alive tomorrow
I will alleviate the pressure
By cutting you out of me
I found my bottom line
Dead on the front lines
I know I'll never go home
So set fire to your ships
And past regrets and be free
chorus
I don't need you to do it for me
I don't need you to understand
I don't need you to hide it from me
I just want to feel like any other man
I won't show you my whole story
I won't show you the aftermath
I won't show you my allegory
Don't look away
verse
Here's an unexplainable one
bridge
What have you done?
bridge
What have you done?
outro
While I was learning to live
outro
You taught me how to die
I guess I got what I wanted
Another needle in the back through purified scarification
It wasn't somebody else
You fucking did it to me
You want a real smile?
I haven't smiled in years
