  • She's sticking needles in her skin
    I turn with an ugly grin
    Her canvas doesn't leave a lot to fantasy
    But her peace of mind can't stay inside the lines
    It's so confusing, the methods that she's using
    She knows she shouldn't leave a mark that I can see
    Will she ever find one million of a kind?
    It's cold and lonely, but that's because she told me
    Lost inside her dirty world
    No one hurts this pretty girl but her

    Oh, she's beautiful
    A little better than a man deserves
    You are not insane
    Please tell me she won't change

    Maybe I should let her go
    But only when she loves me (she loves me)
    How can I just let her go?
    Not until she loves me (she loves me), oh-oh

    She's drowning in herself again
    My God, what a lovely sin
    I guess there's nothing left to do, but have my way

    She can feel it's right so she doesn't close her eyes
    She smiles and answers it doesn't seem to matter
    Lost inside my dirty head, something tells me I'm the one who's kept

    Oh, so volatile
    A little better than a man defiled
    Oh, I need the pain
    Please tell me she won't change

    Maybe I should let her go
    But only when she loves me (she loves me)
    How can I just let her go?
    Not until she loves me (she loves me)

    We were meant to be together
    Now die and fucking love me
    We were meant to hurt each other
    Now die and fucking love me
    Die and fucking love me
    Die and fucking love me
    Die and fucking love me Writer/s: Corey Taylor, James Root

  • Marilynsmansion from California I am disappointed that Corey had to give that bulls--t story about the love-hate relationship with the music industry. I was hoping he would have been honest about why he wrote the lyrics to this song. Everyone has a dark side. Some of us hide it better than others. Regardless, this song is the s--t! I love the music, lyrics, subject matter and spiritual message behind the song. It really is one of the best songs I've ever heard and I'm completely into music of all genres. This song is full of energy and blood. It hits the deep psyche in ways that I've never experienced before. These musicians are ahead of their time. They are also talented, creative, versatile and enigmatic. I've always loved them and hope they will be indicted into the Hall of Fame someday. They deserve it.
