Despise Lyrics

Despise!!!

Maze...psychopathic daze...I create this waste
Back away from tangents, on the verge of drastic
ways...can't escape this place...I deny your face
Sweat gets in my eyes, lash out at all I despise

HANDSONMYFACEOVERBEARINGICAN'TGETOUT

Lost...ran at my own cost...hearing laughter, scoffed
Learning from the rush, detached from such and such
Bleak...standing on my feet...listening incomplete
I am not a dog, but I'm the one you dog

HANDSONMYFACEOVERBEARINGICAN'TGETOUT

Never - ever - surrender - I WANT IT ALL!
Never - ever - surrender - DESPISE
My state of mind gets so one-sided
Despise!

Cut me - show me - enter - I am
Willing and able and never any danger to myself
Knowledge in my pain, knowledge in my pain
Or was my tolerance a phase?
Empathy, out of my way
I can't die

Never - ever - surrender - I WANT IT ALL!
Never - ever - surrender - DESPISE
My state of mind gets so one-sided

Despise!

Punk in drublic says... this song is the demo to purity and was writen before Corey read the Purity story (which turns out not to be even true, but still true to Corey) and before Corey changed it into the song Purity....

OK, first of all, corey wrote NONE of the music or lyrics, PAUL GRAY DID, which is why they don't know if they will do another album. And

Not Valid

I just want to know, why does everyone have to take a good song like this one, and just dig to deep into it. That just really bugs me.

Cover art for Despise lyrics by Slipknot

meh. It's a site for song meanings, so what the hell? Purity got taken off of the Slipknot album, but at least we have Despise, which is better in my opinion. It's pretty much about being hated, and hating people back. Joey himself says that they were given the finger so much that when they started giving it to people, "it was ten times more vicious"
