Snuff

A melodic song on Slipknot's album All Hope is Gone reminiscent to Vol 3's Vermillion Pt 2. 'Till We Die is another melodic song, which appears on All Hope is Gone - Limited Edition Vocalist Corey Taylor said about the song, "This is the slow one. It's another personal one. Again, not naming names, it's about someone who helped me through a lot and I thought she felt the same way that I did and then she really let me down. At the same time, it was good that she did, because it was that final push to me figuring out myself. The lyrics are pretty self-explanatory." Shawn Crahan said about "Snuff", "It's funny because everyone asks, 'Are you guys going to make another album like Iowa?' However, you're going to see that everyone will love a song like "Snuff." People are going to get into it because we all like to feel sad. Everyone can feel the pain that's in there. It's not forced upon you. You have it in there innately. Happy and sad are both always inside. When you hear a song like "Snuff" from a band like Slipknot, you can't help but be forced into that delirium. That's going to be a go-to song for you to just feel bad too.

[Intro] [Verse 1] Bury all your secrets in my skin Come away with innocence, and leave me with my sins The air around me still feels like a cage And love is just a camouflage for what resembles rage again [Chorus 1] So if you love me, let me go And run away before I know My heart is just too dark to care I can't destroy what isn't there Deliver me into my fate If I'm alone I cannot hate I don't deserve to have you Ooh my smile was taken long ago If I can change I hope I never know [Verse 2] I still press your letters to my lips And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss I couldn't face a life without your light (Without your light) But all of that was ripped apart when you refused to fight [Chorus 2] So save your breath, I will not hear I think I made it very clear You couldn't hate enough to love Is that supposed to be enough? I only wish you weren't my friend Then I could hurt you in the end I never claimed to be a saint Ooh my own was banished long ago It took the death of hope to let you go [Guitar solo] Oh, oh [Chorus 3] So break yourself against my stones And spit your pity in my soul You never needed any help You sold me out to save yourself And I won't listen to your shame You ran away, you're all the same Angels lie to keep control Ooh my love was punished long ago If you still care, don't ever let me know If you still care, don't ever let me know [Outro]
