Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
My flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/stone_sour/bother.html ]
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[Solo: Corey]
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
With it's memories
Diaries left
With cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit
I think this song is amazing. I think the song means
like most said hes had a hard past and to many regrets
do remember corey has been on alot of drugs and doesnt want to see his future
I think that he tried to kill himself, but he lived and now people are bothering him asking why he did it and they want to help. However he does not want their help and just wants to die.
I believe he's had too many hard too times and he just wants to cease to exist, but someone keeps trying to help him. He's eventually just gonna completely ignore them and just fade away.
