Korn - Take a Look in the Mirror (2003)

I'm feeling mean today
Not lost, not blown away
Just irritated and quite hated
Self control breaks down
Why's everything so tame?
I like my life insane
I'm fabricating and debating
Who I'm gonna kick around

(Chorus)
Right now
Can't find a way to get across the hate when I see you
Right now
I'm feeling strange inside I wanna slash and beat you
Right now
I rip apart the things inside that excite you
Right now
I can't control myself I fucking hate you!

I'm feeling cold today
Not hurt just fucked away
I'm devastated and frustrated
God I feel so bound
So why'd I feel the need?
I think it's time to bleed
I'm gonna cut myself and
Watch the blood hit the ground

(Chorus)

You open your mouth again
I swear I'm gonna break it
You open your mouth again
My God I cannot take it

Shut up, shut up, shut up, I'll fuck you up [x6]

(Chorus)

I fucking hate you [x4]
I fucking hate you (SHUT UP!) [x3]
SHUT UP!


I am living without you
You think everything will be fine
I find making it hard to lie
Realize nothing is left inside

I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
Going to lose my mind
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
Feel I'm feeling fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
No it won't be fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off

My lie's going to hurt you
My face not going to wait this time
I play, games just to spite you
I know, you're going to believe this time

I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
Going to lose my mind
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
I feel I'm feeling fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
No it won't be fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off

Feel me as I'm laughing
Leaving, hating, fucking,
Hating all this bullshit, rape me
I can't stand this
Fuck (x8)
I can't stand this
Fuck

I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
Going to lose my mind
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
I feel I'm feeling fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
No it won't be fine
I'm 'bout to break some fukin off
Off (x4)


Why can't you ever back down?
Why can't you just shut your face?
Oh God the feelings I feel
Would get me thrown in a cage
You're the one who's always screaming at me
I'm the one that keeps your life so care free
What the fuck more do you want me to be?
Why must you do this to me?

Run away, I can't say
Lead the way, make them pay

Counting on me
Always hoping I'll be
There for all of your problems
In turn you're never there for me
You suck the life out of me
You hate everything you see
I can't take this anymore
I always stay when I should leave

You see the pain in my face
While you keep putting me down
Inside the rage starts to build
You push me, I won't go down
You're the one who's always screaming at me
I'm the one that keeps your life so care free
What the fuck more do you want me to be?
Why must you do this to me?

Run away, I can't stay
Lead the way, make them pay

Counting, on me
Always hoping I'll be
There for all of your problems
in turn you're never there for me
You suck the life out of me
You hate everything you see
I can't take this anymore
I always stay when I should leave

Could this really be the day today?
Could this really make our problems go away?
I'm gonna have to doubt this time

Right
Now!
I've taken all I can now
Right
Now!
You tore us all apart
Right
Now!
There is nothing you can do to stop me

Right now! (x9)

Counting, on me
Always hoping I'll be
There for all of your problems
In turn you're never there for me
You suck the life out of me
You hate everything you see
I can't take this anymore
But always stay when I should leave


Pounding, it starts again
Hurting, oh where do I begin?
Screaming, they dance around my head
Hoping, they'll maybe end up dead

Feeling it grab hold, what can I say?
Feeling fucked up again (I've got to do this right)
I can't fucking give in (I feel that I can fight)
Can't I ever win (I'll keep it on my mind)
Here it comes again

Silence, it goes away
Patience, oh really should I stay?
Trying so hard to get ahead
Failure is often where I'm lead

Feeling it grab hold, what can I say?
Feeling fucked up again (I've got to do this right)
I can't fucking give in (I feel that I can fight)
Can't I ever win (I'll keep it on my mind)
Here it comes again

Oh, I must hold on
Oh, I won't be gone
Oh, I won't stop now
Oh, I don't know how

Why, I can't hold on
Why, I can't be gone
Why, I can't stop now
Why, I don't know how

Here we go again (again) (x8)

Feeling it grab hold, what can I say?
Feeling fucked up again (I've got to do this right)
I can't fucking give in (I feel that I can fight)
Can't I ever win (I'll keep it on my mind)
Here it comes again


I'm not doing great
I feel like I'm dead
Not thinking straight
Inside my body, troubled, full of hate
I had to let it out before it's too late

Deep Inside
It can hide!
Feeling so lost and betrayed
Why does this happen to me everytime?
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

Why won't it fade
Outside I had to lie; "I'm OK"
I hope someday, I'll stop getting pain
I guess this is a lie, I have made

Deep Inside
It can hide!
Feeling so lost and betrayed
Why does this happen to me everytime?
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

What am I doing?
I can't believe this
I have been hiding
Wanting to be less
Giving to people
They take from me
Always they bringing drama to me

Look
Look at me now
NOWWWWWWWW!

Feeling so lost and betrayed
Why does this happen to me everytime
Stuck in this place, where I can't escape
Screaming and clawing from deep inside

I can't stand all of this fucking pain!
Please god just go away!
Please god just make them pay...


Realized I can never win
Sometimes feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin?
My mind is laughing at me

Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something after me
That's why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me

Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Betrayed
I feel so
Enslaved
I really tried
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my TIME

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Oh god the anger's changing me
Oh god the anger's changing me


Always, I see it's going down
Today, hoping in time
We'll bury all this pain
And we'll awake
Something inside

[Bridge]
We pushed our plugs too far inside
We tear our hearts out and
Then we fight

[Chorus]
Why I know
Feels like I've lost everything that I've known
I cannot survive, alone
Feels like I've lost everything that I've known

Our lives, were good in every way
Too late, time after time
Our love just turned to hate
But we stayed by
Each others side

[Bridge & Chorus: Repeat]

I keep holding on
I fear I'm where I belong
Every time we fight it feels so wrong
I feel so enslaved, fuck my pride
Can we meet again?

[Bridge & Chorus: Repeat]


Nas:
Everybody's an enemy
Telling me lies and it's killing me
Why they all want to get rid of me?
Everybody's my enemy
Several try to disguise the devil in them
Wanting to get into my cerebellum but I'm
Ready and willing to tell them that I can't eff with them
Exhale so hard it got my chest swelling
Like my dick does when watching naked women
Do sick stuff on my porn collection on television

Nas:
Trust nobody
I don't know who to call a friend
they all just pretend to be
Fuck everybody
This is to all of ya'll
cuz everybody is an enemy (x2)

Nas:
Watching my own back
Strapped in chrome, to my homies
Where the tombstones at, where the hoes at?
Cuz to many didn't act like dikes
Hermaphrodites with benzene, amen
Look at the trash that's biting
The life in times is kinda weaker
Like the time and life of the sandman on Apollo theater
Imagine that another black with a hook
Who pulls the wack talent off the stage
I'm in raged

Nas:
Trust nobody
I don't know who to call a friend
they all just pretend to be
Fuck everybody
This is to all of ya'll
cuz everybody is an enemy (x2)

JD:
You fill your lies around me
and you think you won
You feel you can control me
with the things you've done

JD:
You think you can take me
you think you can play me
you're going to start to hate me
I feel that you disgraced me (x5)

Nas:
Trust nobody
I don't know who to call a friend
they all just pretend to be
Fuck everybody
this is to all of ya'll (x2)


I cannot ever find a way
To throw these darkened thoughts away
Need a place to hide
It's thrown in my face everyday
Guess that's the price I have to pay
For what's inside my mind

Alive! [x8]

[Chorus:]
I am alive
I will never run away
Places inside
My heart screams inside with pride
Once I cried
Now I wipe away the tears
Once I died
Now I'm alive

Alive! [x8]

Little things tempt me everyday
Constant pain is how I like to play
Better not cross that line
What's this in my head I didn't say
It's something I can't throw away
What's inside my mind

[Chorus]

I bide my time
I'm intertwined
I'm falling in this place
I thought I left behind [x2]

I bide my time
I'm intertwined
I'm falling in this place
I thought I left behind
(Feeling so alive) [x2]

Alive! [x4]

[Chorus]


Run away no where
To chicken shit, two face
I'm gonna go there
The fear I cannot taste
You think you got me (you laugh)
You're gonna tumble down (you laugh)
Keep coming for me (fuck off)
I'll drop you on the ground

I fuck with no one
Until you get in my face

Break you down
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, my fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Let's do this now [x2]

You're gonna feel how (alright)
I really am with you (you're right)
You're going no where (must stop)
Don't really know what to do (you're right)
It's going to go on (fuck off)
Until you run away (alright)
You can't control me
You best do it my way (you won)

I fuck with no one
Until you get into my face

Break you down
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, my fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Let's do this now [x2]

Don't you know that
You can't punch me?
Don't you know that
You can't bring me down?
All my life would be so easy now
If you hadn't stepped across that
LI------NE!
LI------NE!

Break you down
Mercy, I cannot allow
Through your face, my fist will plow
Watching as your blood pours down
Let's do this now [x4]


We are the pain
We are the shame
We've gone insane
Inside where no one's around

I am to blame, for everything
I like this game, that you all make me play

I'm done being there for others
They have their pain and so do I
Don't need to feel it all over
I try to hold on and you bring me down

We are estranged
We are deranged
I can't explain
How you all break me apart

I am to blame, for everything
I like this game, that you all make me play

I'm done being there for others
They have their pain and so do I
Don't need to feel it all over
I try to hold on and you bring me down

We wait, we hate
We try to get away
Mistake, my pain
It has been lead astray
I'm looking around, I drop to the ground
Why does this have to end this way?

Feeling numb, so long
Oh God it's just everyday
It's everything

Now I pray for all of them to go away!

I'm done being there for others
They have their pain and so do I
Don't need to feel it all over
I try to hold on and you bring me down




Standing inside rotting away
Something inside of me has been taken away
Feeling my heart breaking in vain
It won't get better now
When will this end?

I can't seem to get away
I feel I'm here so you can play
With my head
There's nothing I can say
I keep feeling like I'm to blame
When will this end?

Hopeless inside alone as I wait
Brewing inside of me is your endless hate
Feeling my heart breaking in vain
It won't get better now
When will this end?

I can't seem to get away
I feel I'm here so you can play
With my head
There's nothing I can say
I keep feeling like I'm to blame
When will this end?

The stress is rising and I can't seem to get away from you
You're always trying and the lying always shines right through
My God I hate this
Always take shit
And I let this go on
Why can't I break this?
I just take this
As this goes on and on

End
When will this end? (x7)

When will this end?

I can't seem to get away
I feel I'm here so you can play
With my head
There's nothing I can say
I keep feeling like I'm to blame
When will this end?


I can't remember anything
Can't tell if this is true or a dream
Deep down inside I feel to scream
This terrible silence stops in me

Now that the war is through with me
I'm waking up, I cannot see
That there is not much left of me
Nothing is real but pain now

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Back in the womb it's much too real
In pumps life that I must feel
But can't look forward to reveal
Look to the time when I live

Fed through the tube that sticks in me
Just like a wartime novelty
Tied to machines that make me be
Cut this life off from me

Hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, wake me

Now the world is gone I'm just one
Oh God, help me hold my breath as I wish for death
Oh please God, help me

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell
