Medicine for the dead – Slipknot

Medicine for the dead

What happens in the dark feels
the way the blackout never does
Turning the gears, sharpen the blades
of sheer terror, these fevered ones
But tell me the secret things,
show me the bloody kings
Let’s play a game where the winners
always lose… their heads

Time screams by, life is mine
Time screams by, life is…
Yeah

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me

Before it could begin,
the shooting stopped,
the silence always comes
Now where do we go?
Because you’re walking the streets,
it’s no better (There’s something wrong)
Pull at your privacy, a product of lunacy
Don’t be surprised when the losers
want to win… but then again

Time screams by, life is mine
Time screams by, life is…
Yeah

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead

Where does it end and tell me where does it go?
If evil exists, then only evil can know
When do we run and are they letting us in?
Where does it end and tell me where to begin

Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Medicine for the dead
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
Drink me
Your condition is a symptom
We’ll have to give you medicine for the dead
You have to drink me
