Come on down, and see the idiot right here,
Too fucked to beg and not afraid to care.
What's the matter with calamity anyway?
Right? Get the fuck outta my face!
Understand that I can't feel anything.
It isn't like I wanna sift through the decay.
I feel like a wound, like I got a fuckin'
Gun against my head, you live when I'm dead!
One more time, motherfucker!
Everybody hates me now, so fuck it,
Blood's on my face and my hands, and I don't know why
I'm not afraid to cry, but that's none of your business!
Whose life is it? Get it? See it? Feel it? Eat it?
Spin it around so I can spit in it's face.
I wanna leave without a trace,
'Cause I don't wanna die in this place! [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/slipknot/peopleshit.html ]

It never stops - you can't be everything to everyone.
Contagion - I'm sittin' at the side of Satan.
What do you want from me?
They never told me the failure I was meant to be.
Now. Overdo it - don't tell me you blew it,
Stop your bitchin' and fight your way through it!
I'm. NOT. LIKE. YOU. I. JUST. FUCK. UP.
C'mon motherfucker everybody has to die,
C'mon motherfucker EVERYBODY HAS TO DIE!

When asked why "people=shit" crahan says "we are what we are, we just waste and we ruin and we corrupt, and we destroy," so people=shit basically because we are our own worst enemy, we are going to be the end of the earth and no one seems to give a shit. The message trying to get across is that of the human race is depleating itself of the simple pleasures in life and that everyone is now fake. Fake meaning people, society, everyone, is now pretending to be someone else. Not caring about others, and just themselves. In this act, they are a disease put on earth and we must show them the reality of life. They kill themselves, and or others, because they do not know what is going on in the real world because they are so wrapped up in the world politics and media, they hide reality from people because it will scare them. People need to know. People are the #1 cause of destruction on this earth and this needs to change, but the sad fact is, we can't. That is what they are trying to get across.
