I walk alone
Saliva Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This television has a poison on its breath
This counter culture of both wicked lives and death
It makes my eyes bleed every time I turn around
How will they all feel when I bring them to the ground?
And I said
A place where no one follows me, I walk alone
I'm sick of all these people talking out their heads
I never understood a damn thing that they said
From words to actions never knowing what they're about
I guess I'll have to chew them up and spit them out
And I said
I walk for miles inside this pit of danger
I've swallowed down a thousand years of anger
The weight of the world is falling on my shoulders
A place where no one follows me, I walk alone
Yeah!
I walk alone!
Yeah!
Yeah!
I walk for miles inside this pit of danger
I've swallowed down a thousand years of anger
The weight of the world is falling on my shoulders
A place where no one follows me, I walk alone
Yeah!
I walk alone!
Yeah!

Regardless of what alot people think about Dave Batista, he had one of the most energetic entrances of all time.
@Skullcandyfan101
Agree, he’s a dumb Hollywood liberal but damn did he have a great entrance and he had an amazing run before he left in 2009 or 2010. We don’t talk about 2014 though. Lol

He's gone down the Swampwood rabbit hole, but he did have one of the best and energetic entrances indeed.
