Slipknot - Override Lyrics
[Verse:]The ghosts have given upFamiliar haunts have had enoughToo much thought will give you doubtAnd now they found youIt's safer in a cage [?]They can tell you what to sayAll your dreams come with a price, so they own youBut what did you expect?Was it too much to protect?Did you understand they had selfish intentions?When they were pulling you in opposite directions[Chorus:]You don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundYou don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundWe are the overrideWe are the override[Verse 2:]The dead don't know, the dead are lonelyA fascination fadesWhen this mercy execution says it's overYou follow as preferredNow their plans are undeterredWho can bring them in to supersede? It's overEven hate starts out as loveSometimes when it's all you wantMaybe satisfaction will take you for grantedWhen all that's left is the emotion you abandoned[Chorus:]You don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundYou don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundWe are the overrideWe are the override[Verse 3:]You clawed out from nothing and I sent you backFloor to the pedal and lock what you act [?]Covered in sores - you cannot be the oneYou are the answer to why we have risenYou are not the wayYou are judged to being afraidYou are simple and unchangedWe believe you should give upGive upGive upGod and his mercy will take you for grantedWhen all that's left is a life you abandoned[Chorus:]You don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundYou don't know the hell that's comingEverybody get on the groundWe are the overrideWe are the override[Outro:]Give upGive upGive upGive upGive upGive upGive upGive up
