Skeptic Lyrics

Slipknot – Skeptic Lyrics

from album: .5: The Gray Chapter (2014)
[Verse:]
They wanna fight
Commiserate
Do we get a little taste as unique
The libertine, know what I mean?
Hiroshima on a sad day
You had a gift,
you were a gift
But there's always a goddamn catch
Blessing and a curse
You made it work
And you're the first to know much further

[Chorus:]
Legend
bastard
Dear friend
Why?
Why do the limits have to reunite?
Hero!
Martyr!
Mystery!
God!
He was the best of us
The world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you
Oh!

[Verse 2:]
Never be the same
I want the blame
To be assigned to the guiltiest one
It can't be done
Because its on
Consider me arrested
I'm so fucking pissed
At all of this
You gotta know that you are sorely missed
Miracles are real
They help you heal
They make you feel
Like things will get better

[Chorus:]
Father!
Brother!
Scapegoat!
Why?
Why did we only skip this time?
Fighter!
Icon!
Skeptic!
God!
Stop taking the best of us
I won't let you disappear
I will keep your soul alive
If I can't have you here
History may have its share
Of lunatics and stars

But the world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you

The world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you
The world will never know another man as amazing as you
Skeptic, Skeptic, Skeptic, Skeptic, Skeptic

[Verse 3:]
Where am I supposed to be
I'm killing for the karma again
Feed the meter in the machine
But living is the way to be saved
God, are we alone?
God, are we alone?
God, are we alone?
God, we're not alone
I can't let you disappear
I will keep your soul alive
If I can't have you here
We were meant to be the kings
Rule the masses, run the risk
And keep our systems clean
History may have its share
Of lunatics and stars

[Chorus:]
But the world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you,
The world will never know another man as amazing as you,
The world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you,
The world will never know another man as amazing as you,
The world will never see another crazy mother fucker like you
Like you, like you, like you, like you
