Slipknot is well known for its attention-grabbing image, aggressive style of music, and energetic and chaotic live shows. The band rapidly rose to fame following the release of their eponymous debut album in 1999. The 2001 follow-up album, Iowa, although darker in tone, made the band more popular. After a brief hiatus, Slipknot returned in 2004 with Vol. 3: The Subliminal Verses, before going on another hiatus and returning in 2008 with its fourth album, All Hope Is Gone, which debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart. 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. The band has released two live albums titled 9.0: Live and Day of the Gusano: Live in Mexico, a compilation album titled Antennas to Hell, and five live DVDs. The band has sold 30 million records worldwide.

Slipknot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean
My wormwood meets your pesticide
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
Come on
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, no
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, 'cause it's the only way to die
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be, come on
No, 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
The lyrics to Slipknot's song Disasterpiece are quite explicit and disturbing. The song is about anger, frustration, and desperation. The first few lines are particularly grotesque, as the singer talks about wanting to slit someone's throat and have sex with the wound. The song seems to be addressed to someone who has wronged the singer, and he is expressing his violent thoughts towards that person.
The lines "My wormwood meets your pesticide, you'll never get out, 'cause you were never alive" might suggest that the singer sees himself as a toxic presence, and the other person as someone who is already dead inside. He then goes on to say "I am infinite, I am the infant finite," which could mean that he is both all-powerful and powerless at the same time. He wants to show the person why they should be afraid of him, suggesting that he is planning to harm them in some way.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "no one is safe" and talks about people making noises when they're sick. The singer seems to be saying that everyone is vulnerable and exposed in some way, that no one is truly safe from harm. He then talks about being locked inside another dream that never had a chance of being realized, which could mean that he feels trapped and disillusioned with life.
Overall, the song Disasterpiece is a dark and intense expression of anger and violence. The lyrics are graphic and disturbing, and the music is heavy and aggressive. It speaks to the raw emotions that many people feel when they're pushed too far, and the line between fantasy and reality is blurred.
Line by Line Meaning
Nobody stop me
I am unstoppable
I wanna slit your throat and fuck the wound
I want to hurt you in the most gruesome way possible
I wanna push my face in and feel the swoon
I want to indulge in my sadistic tendencies
I wanna dig inside, find a little bit of me
I want to delve into my inner darkness
'Cause the line gets crossed when you don't come clean
When you try to hide the truth, you become my enemy
My wormwood meets your pesticide
My poisonous intentions clash with your futile efforts to resist
You'll never get out, 'cause you were never alive
You are trapped in your own kind of hell, and you always have been
I am infinite, I am the infant finite
I am eternal, and you are insignificant
Come a little closer and I'll show you why
I will prove to you how much power I have
No one is safe
I will destroy anyone in my path
Noises, noises, people make noises
People are always making noise, it's bothersome
People make noises when they're sick
Sickness only adds to the chaos of life
Nothing to do except hold on to nothing
Life is meaningless and empty
How does it feel to be locked inside another dream
You are trapped in a reality that you can't escape from
That never had a chance of being realized?
Your hopes and dreams were never going to come true
What the fuck are you lookin' at?
Why are you staring at me?
I'll tell you what you're lookin' at
You're looking at someone who will destroy you
Everyone you ever fuckin' laughed at
I will make them pay for laughing at me
Look in my eyes for the answers, typical
I am not like everyone else, and you will never understand me
I can feel it underneath like a miracle
I am filled with a sense of power and invincibility
Everybody in the world needs more than
Humanity is in desperate need of something greater than themselves
Lies and consequences to power them
Lies and deceit are necessary for humanity to survive
Once again, it's me and no one else
I am alone in this world
I can't remember if there was a someone else
I don't even remember if I had anyone to rely on before
It's not mine, it's not fair, it's outta my hands
My situation is beyond my control, and it's not fair
And it's shaking, you'll never take me
I may be vulnerable, but I will never be defeated
Hate, hate ain't enough to describe me
My anger and hatred is beyond measure
Scream, somewhere between screaming and crying
My pain is so intense, I don't know whether to scream or cry
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be
I don't belong in this world
Why, when do I get to know why?
I am searching for the reason for my existence
Bitter, bitter as the stink of when I try
My attempts to find my purpose have all failed, leaving me bitter
Pull your hands away, I'm gone
Let me go, I am already leaving this world
Goodbye, it's so depressing, withering away
The end is coming, and it is a depressing and painful process
Take a look inside, my soul is missing
I am empty inside, there is nothing left of me
All I have is dead so I'll take you with me
I am already dead inside, so I will take you down with me
I feel like I'm erased so kill me just in case
I feel like I am nothing, so I would rather die than continue to feel that way
Don't kill me, drop it guys
I may want to die, but I am not willing to go out without a fight
Covet, everything around me's mine
I want everything for myself, and I will take it if necessary
Sty, can't see through the sties in my eyes
I am so consumed with my own desires and greed that I cannot see clearly
Down, scratching and clawing all the way
I will take down anyone who stands in my way, no matter what it takes
Stay, you won't let me fucking stay
I am trapped here, and no one will let me leave
Live, is there another way to live?
Is there any other way to live other than in this world of pain and suffering?
Die, 'cause it's the only way to die
Death is the only escape from this life of misery
No, no, no
I don't want to die, but I don't know how to live
No, I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be
I don't belong in this world, and I never have
I'm not supposed to be here, I'm not supposed to be
I am a misfit in this world, and I always will be

Jim's solo from 3:35 to 4:16 is so fucking perfect
Flyboy
@YES HAW It's good but I don't rant about it. My favorite era was honestly self-titled, and probably Vol.3 after that.
YES HAW
@Flyboy I’m assuming you love the disasterpiece concert then huh
Flyboy
@YES HAW Whether you love it or not, that shit has no place in one of the band's most brutal songs. They've since done plenty of lighter stuff that he could spoil.
YES HAW
@Flyboy personally I love it but I can sorta see why you don’t like it
Flyboy
@YES HAW Jim's too much of a hipster for Slipknot now. Well, certainly for how the classic band used to be.
Snowscold
We can all agree, this was the bands peak, Joey Paul and Chris, Corey sounding amazing, a great crowd, amazing deep sound, tHe was truly the peak of slipknot. Not saying they sound bad obviously :) seeing them this summer :)
