After another long hiatus, Slipknot released its fifth studio album, .5: The Gray Chapter, in 2014. Their sixth studio album, We Are Not Your Kind, was released on August 9, 2019. Their seventh studio album, The End, So Far, was released on September 30, 2022.

Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
All my friends have pictures made to make you cry
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to
Calcify
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
I don't even try it, you had be a liar just to infiltrate me
I'm still drowning
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
Take this away
Take this away
I can feel it on my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get too close
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
(I ignore you)
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
(I come toward you)
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away
We let it all slip away (slip away, slip away, slip away, slip away, slip away)
Left Behind is a song by American heavy metal band Slipknot, released on their second studio album, Iowa, in 2001. It was performed live in their 9.0 Live album in 2005. The lyrics of Left Behind appear to be about a person who is reflecting on their past and how their friends have disappeared over time, leaving them alone. The opening lines suggest that the singer has seen friends who have "disappeared in time", which implies that they have lost touch or have passed away. The lines "Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime/All my friends have pictures made to make you cry" further suggest that the singer has been forgotten, having been "soaked in lime," which is used to preserve dead bodies, and left behind, while their friends still have pictures that evoke sadness.
The lyrics "I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face" suggest that someone is holding the singer back or trying to infiltrate or control them. The phrase "thalidomide robot face" is a metaphor for a face that is emotionless, stiff, and artificial, an image that is further emphasized by the use of the word "robot." The phrase "Don't even try it! You had be a liar just to infiltrate me I'm still drowning" suggests that the singer is aware of the deceitful intent of the person trying to control them and is refusing to be deceived. The repeated lines "We all got left behind, we let it all slip away" suggest the inevitability of loss and how everyone, including the singer, has been affected by it.

I've known faces that have disappeared in time
I've met people who've vanished as years passed by
Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime
My dead body will be covered in glass and buried with acid
All my friends have pictures made to make you cry
My pals have commemorative photos that may bring tears to your eyes
I've seen this and wondered what I've done to Calcify
I've witnessed it, yet I contemplate how I became petrified
(I ignore you)
I choose to disregard you
As I close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away
When I shut my eyes, I sense everything fading
(I come toward you)
I move to approach you
We all got left behind, we let it all slip away
We were abandoned, and we allowed everything to vanish
I can't stand to see your thalidomide robot face
I can't bear your distorted automaton countenance
Don't even try it! You had be a liar just to Infiltrate me I'm still drowning
It won't work! You'd need to deceive me to gain access, and I'm still engulfed by misery
Take, this, away
Remove this from me
I can feel it on my mouth
I can sense it near my mouth
I can taste you on my fingers
I can distinguish your flavor on my hands
I can hear you like the holy ghost
I can hear you like a divine spirit
And kill you if you get too close
And I'll slay you if you get too near
We let it all slip away
We permitted everything to vanish
We let it all slip away
We allowed everything to disappear
We let it all slip away
We enabled everything to fade
We let it all slip away
We conceded everything to be gone

I can taste you on my fingers
I can hear you like the holy ghost
And kill you if you get to close
