Dont Get Close - Lyrics by Slipknot


Lyrics

Somebody give me some light
And I punch it into the heart
Somebody show me the end
And I try to push to start

Not trying to figure out
A better way, a better answer
But I keep finding all the problems
I've been looking after

You can't wander through the world
With nothing but a smile
I'll take your tongue for words
And use it to instill denial



Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there

Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there



Maybe I should look away
Before I ruin this
Maybe I should pick the time
Before I pick the place

Love into war the things that emulate then penalize
But I don't want to go until you want to finalize



Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know!
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!
Will take you there

Don't get close!
You don't know me and you'll never know
Chivalry!
Will get you somewhere
Rivalry!



You abstained the part
My vision's all but shot
I have the best confession
Always go for all the lessons
Equations anti-news
Stay out and be a deuce
I didn't want to be
The undeniable so loose so free



Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!

Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]



I see what's in all the conflicts
Constrict just to fit in, squeeze in,
I can insist, closed fist
Remember?!
Remember?!

You take the breath of life
It never made much sense
I have the worst possession
What I won't put soul in session

Old man and be abused
Because this is so confused
I only want to be
Left alone and rot away



Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!
Don't get close!

Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
Don't get close! [Better stay away!]
