Y'all Weren't Lying... OH. MY. ASS. | SLIPKNOT - "Orphan" (REACTION!!)

[@AlexHefner]

This song confirms my favorite album of the year choice. It’s true. I picked this album as my favorite without hearing all the songs. Stupid? Maybe. Actually, probably. But the songs I’ve heard Ive had each one on repeat SO MANY TIMES! That’s how I know it’s my favorite. Thanks for watching guys!!! Love y’all.

This is one of their best songs for sure. The line "There's still a part of me that's dying in a dumpster" is a reference to a time when Corey overdosed and his friends threw him in a dumpster, thinking he was dead.

Everyone in Slipknot thought that Joeys drumming was too complex to replace then they replaced him...

[@Shreddave8]

Source? Joey’s drumming was indeed way more complex. Speed and snare rolls doesnt make it “complex”. Joey had way more randomness and insane fills. Just listen to the self-titled and IOWA. Jay isn’t bad but he’s more of an “on beat” drummer.

[@Sculpted_stache]

I wept! When I realized There were no more demons left to conquer An opportunity to show my feelings With skin so thick you'd swear it was armor A penitentiary that only lets the oxygen out I wasn't ready for a version of the truth to get out I'm getting desperate, I wouldn't want to fester In another bad dream, I am a man of extremes? I found the flesh and I'm liking it I'll put an end to all the fucking psychobabble We eat the meat 'cause the meat had a soul We take the lives 'cause to hurt makes us whole I am not the same You never had a clue or knew my name You wanna know the story? take my pain I am ready, the lie is heard I am not the same You never had intent to keep my blame You really wanna know who the fuck I am? I am the orphan, the one who killed your world Keeping up appearances with acts of attrition It doesn't matter 'cause I know you'll never listen Before, you knew it when you saw it Now you say you never knew it, it was all a big conspiracy We came together when the hands of fate let go Is there anybody left to fill this hole? This shit will never wash off Give yourself a medal, I swear I fucking give up We're nothing special, just an accidental tweak of the freak An evolution of the kennel in the fetish you seek There's still a part of me that's dying in a dumpster The one who rose is a motherfucking monster I've seen the future, and it's simply burning! I wasn't put here to be so discerning! You want the world to be dissatisfied?! You don't care, so why the fuck should I? Fuck, should I sell myself to stay alive? I am not the same You never had a clue or knew my name You wanna know the story? take my pain I am ready, the lie is heard I am not the same You never had intent to keep my blame You really wanna know who the fuck I am? I am the orphan, the one who kills The one who kills your world Everyone has something Someone here has everything Everyone has something Someone here has everything Everyone has something Someone here has everything Everyone has something Someone here has everything Everyone has something Someone here has everything Everyone has something Someone here has everything Tell me all about it I love to hear it The way I ruin everything I touch I never thought I'd get to say I'm sorry But then again I think you ask too much Too white to be black Too black to be blue Too sick to be me Too fucked to be you I only wonder if I'll live to see the end of the road It always gets me nowhere I am not the same You never had a clue or knew my name You wanna know the story, take my pain I am ready, the lie is heard I am not the same You never had intent to keep my blame You really wanna know who the fuck I am?
