Worst Is On Its Way Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look, now, tell me this is nothing
Something's playing tricks and it's chipping away
I can't, swirling is the trouble
Disguised in the paces, they're blocking my way

[Chorus]
Calling me
I feel it coursing through the inside
And I can't get away
Somewhere inside
I feel it breathing and I realize
The worst is on its way

[Verse 2]
It is always something
Life keeps throwing things that don't go my way
I'm damned, harmful thoughts devour me
All familiar places I can't escape

[Chorus]
Calling me
I feel it coursing through the inside
And I can't get away
Somewhere inside
I feel it breathing and I realize
The worst is on its way
[Bridge]
And it makes me sick
But I deal with it
Set it all aside
My confidence overrides
[Scatting]

[Pre-Chorus]
Calling me
I feel it coursing through the inside

[Chorus]
Calling me
I feel it coursing through the inside
And I can't get away
Somewhere inside
I feel it breathing and I realize
The worst is on its way

[Post-Chorus]
The worst is on its way
The worst is on its way

[Outro]
And it makes me sick
But I deal with it
Set it all aside
My confidence overrides
[Scatting]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Korn vocalist Jonathan Davis spoke to Metal Hammer magazine about the track:

“Right now everything is going good, but always in the back of my head I’m just waiting for that next bad thing to happen. I thought it was an amazing way to end the record because it’s all about me battling the darkness and coming out on top, but life is a never-ending loop and there’s always more bullshit ahead.”
