Slipknot – Hive Mind

[Intro]

Yeah

[Verse 1]

Rise, we're gonna need another witness just like you

Surprise, your inadmissible testimony might be true

You better pull the hood (Get it off, get it off)

You'll be lucky to tear the place down

Then you're gone for good (Set it off, set it off)

Scorched earth is your favorite sacred ground

Turn away if you know you wanna stay

But you're never gonna like what's left of me

When the carcass is down and the predator's around

You're gonna play dead if you wanna run free

[Pre-Chorus]

You're such a tortured soul

But I don't wanna hear about it

You say you're not involved

But all you do is talk about it

Go bless this shit where you belong

[Chorus]

For your own information

For your own entertainment

This hell comes to you live

And if you need some assistance

A little time to convince it

Dial in your sordid hive mind

[Verse 2]

Crawl across the broken glass of every window you're pressed against

And scrawl, your little bits of hate

Your little digital graffiti breaks

So don't close your eyes (Get it off, get it off)

When you're pulling your messages down

You wanna go to sleep? (Set it off, set it off)

You'll be lucky if they take you without making a sound

What a guy, God, I hope you fucking die

And your sympathies don't mean shit to me

When the competence goes and the predator knows

You better be dead if you wanna be free

[Pre-Chorus]

You're such a tortured soul

But I don't wanna hear about it

You say you're not involved

But all you do is talk about it

One more thing

And don't forget to burn

[Chorus]

For your own information

For your own entertainment

This hell comes to you live

And if you need some assistance

A little time to convince it

Dial in this sordid

Protect the hive mind

[Bridge]

Hold on, there's a river around you

Swim hard for the other side

Don't drown to spite your critics

Just blow a kiss goodbye

Hold on, there's a river around you

Swim hard for the other side

Don't drown to spite your critics

Just blow a kiss goodbye

[Outro]

Yeah

Protect the hive

Yeah

Protect the—
