Disasterpiece
Slipknot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to slit your throat and fuck the wound
I want to push my face in and feel the swoon
I want to dig inside, find a little bit of me
'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean

My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out, cause you were never alive
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
Come a little closer and I'll show you why

No one is, safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing

No one is, safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing

How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at

Look in my eyes for the answers, typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everybody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to power them
Once again, it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
And it's shaking, you'll never take me

No one is, safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing

No one is, safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
Nothing, nothing

Hate, hate ain't enough to describe me
Scream, somewhere between screaming and crying
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Why, when do I get to know why?
Bitter, bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Pull your hands away
I'm gone, goodbye, it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look, inside, my soul is missing
All I have is dead, so I'll take you with me
Feel like I'm erased, so kill me just in case
I Feel like I'm erased, so kill me just in case
So kill me just in case

Covet, everything around me is mine
Sty, can't see through the sties in my eyes
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Down, scratching and clawing all the way
Stay you won't let me fucking stay
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Live is there another way to live?
Die, 'cause it's the only way to die




I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Slipknot's "Disasterpiece" express a deep sense of anger, frustration, and desperation. The singer desires to harm and humiliate an unnamed person or people, with lines like "I want to slit your throat and fuck the wound" and "I'll tell you what you're lookin' at / Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at." This intense desire for violence is contrasted with moments of introspection, where the singer seeks to understand their own emotions and identity. They say, "I want to dig inside, find a little bit of me / 'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean."


Throughout the song, there is a pervasive sense of isolation and alienation. The singer feels disconnected from society and unable to find fulfillment or purpose in life. They ask, "Why, when do I get to know why?" and "Is there another way to live?" But ultimately, they seem resigned to their fate, saying "I'm not supposed to be here."


Overall, "Disasterpiece" is a powerful and intense exploration of the darker aspects of the human psyche, delving into themes of violence, identity, isolation, and despair.


Line by Line Meaning

I want to slit your throat and fuck the wound
I want to hurt you badly, showing no notions of mercy or care


I want to push my face in and feel the swoon
I want to be overwhelmed with emotions by doing something extreme


I want to dig inside, find a little bit of me, 'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean
I want to investigate deep within myself to understand why dishonesty causes a betrayal of trust


My wormwood meets your pesticide, You'll never get out, cause you were never alive
My harmful and toxic behavior collides with your futile attempt to resist me, you were never meant to survive


I am infinite, I am the infant finite, Come a little closer and I'll show you why
I am powerful, yet naive, and if you come closer, I can prove it to you


No one is, safe Noises, noises, people make noises People make noises when they're sick Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
No one is safe from the unpleasant and disturbing sounds people make when they are unwell. The only thing one can do is to hold onto nothingness


How does it feel to be locked inside another dream That never had a chance of being realized? What the fuck are you lookin' at? I'll tell you what you're lookin' at Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at
What does it feel like to be trapped in an unattainable dream? You are staring at the person who has been the object of your ridicule


Look in my eyes for the answers, typical I can feel it underneath like a miracle Everybody in the world needs more than Lies and consequences to power them Once again, it's me and no one else I can't remember if there was a someone else It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands And it's shaking, you'll never take me
You rely on me to provide answers, but it's typical that there is no easy explanation. We all need more than just deceit and punishment to motivate us. It's only me here, I can't remember the time when there was someone else. It's out of my control and it's making me tremble which means you'll never have control over me


Hate, hate ain't enough to describe me Scream, somewhere between screaming and crying I'm not supposed to be here I'm not supposed to be Why, when do I get to know why? Bitter, bitter as the stink of when I try I'm not supposed to be here I'm not supposed to be
Hate is not strong enough to express my feelings. I am in a state of chaos, between screaming and crying. I don't belong here, I don't know why I am here. Every attempt to make sense of my existence only leads to bitterness and despair


Pull your hands away I'm gone, goodbye, it's so depressing Withering away Take a look, inside, my soul is missing All I have is dead, so I'll take you with me Feel like I'm erased, so kill me just in case I Feel like I'm erased, so kill me just in case So kill me just in case
Let me go, I am vanishing and there's no hope left. Inside my soul, there is nothing left, I am taking you with me, all that is left to do is to finish the job and kill me


Covet, everything around me is mine Sty, can't see through the sties in my eyes I'm not supposed to be here I'm not supposed to be Down, scratching and clawing all the way Stay you won't let me fucking stay I'm not supposed to be here I'm not supposed to be
I want to possess everything, and my vision is distorted due to my pig-headedness. I don't belong here, I am not meant to be here. I am struggling and writhing away, but you won't let me leave, which means I am not meant to be here


Live is there another way to live? Die, 'cause it's the only way to die I'm not supposed to be here I'm not supposed to be
Is there any other way to live? Death is the only way out for me, I don't belong here, I am not meant to exist in this world

Nobody stop me
I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
Wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
Wanna dig inside, find a little bit of me
'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean
My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out 'cause you were never alive
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
Come a little closer, and I'll show you why
No one is safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
No one is safe
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you looking at?
I'll tell you what you're looking at
Everyone you ever fucking laughed at
Look in my eyes for the answers - typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everybody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to power them
Once again, it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
And it's shaking - you'll never take me

Oh, come on
Hate ain't enough to describe me
Somewhere between screaming and crying

Bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
No
Pull your hands away
I'm gone, goodbye, it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look inside, my soul is missing

I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be, come on
No, no, no
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Lyrics:
Nobody stop me

I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
I wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
I wanna dig inside, find a little bit of me
Cuz the line gets crossed when you don't come clean

My wormwood meets your pesticide
You'll never get out, coz you were never alive
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
Come a little closer and I'll show you why



(NO ONE IS — SAFE)
Noises, noises, people make noises
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING

How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
That never had a chance of being realized?
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at

Look in my eyes for the answers — typical
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
Everybody in the world needs more than
Lies and consequences to power them
Once again, it's me and no one else
I can't remember if there was a someone else
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
And it's shaking — you'll never take me

(NO ONE IS — SAFE)
Noises, noises, people make noises x2
People make noises when they're sick
Nothing to do except hold on to NOTHING

NOTHING!

(HATE) Hate ain't enough to describe me
(SCREAM) Somewhere between screaming and crying
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supoosed to be

(WHY) When do I get to know why?
(BITTER) Bitter as the stink of when I try
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

Pull your hands away
I'm gone — goodbye — it's so depressing
Withering away
Take a look — inside — my soul is missing
All I have is dead, so I'll take you with me
I feel like I'm erased — so kill me just in case
I feel like I'm erased — so kill me just in case
Don't kill me, drop it guys

(COVET) Everything around me's mine
(STY) Can't see through the sties in my eyes
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

(DOWN) Scratching and clawing all the way
(STAY) You won't let me fucking stay
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be

(LIVE) Is there another way to live?
(DIE) Cuz it's the only way to die
I'm not supposed to be here
I'm not supposed to be.
