Slipknot - Left Behind Lyrics

Artist: Slipknot

Album: Iowa

  • Songwriters: Shawn Crahan, Chris Fehn, Paul Gray, Craig Jones, Nathan Jordison

I've known faces that have disappeared in time
Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
All my friends have pictures meant to make you cry
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to calcify

I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
I don't even try it you have to be a liar
Just to infiltrate me, I'm still drowning

I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

Take this away, take this away
I can feel it on my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get too close

I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I ignore you
As I close my eyes I feel it all slipping away
I come towards you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away

We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
Slip away, slip away, slip away

    TO me, this is their second best song...(if you're wondering, I Find Duality to be the "masterpiece")
    It's amazing, this song. Absolutley the Best on "Iowa".
