Dont Get Close
Slipknot .::WwW.MiNiNorG.CoM::. Lyrics

Somebody give me some light
I need clarity and understanding.

Not pointed into the dark
I don't want to be misled.

Somebody show me the end
I want to know the outcome before starting.

Not trying to push a start
I don't want to begin without proper guidance.

Not trying to figure out
I don't want to be fixated on just one solution.

A better way, a better answer
I am looking for a better approach and solution.

But I keep finding all the problems
I am discovering obstacles instead of solutions.

Don't get wound up in the world
Don't be overwhelmed by external stressors.

With nothing but a smile
A superficial response isn't always enough.

I'll take a ton of words
I will express myself thoroughly.

And use them to instill denile
I will try to influence others to not believe the truth.

Don't get close
Don't try to get to know me too well.

You don't know me
You don't understand me or my motives.

And you'll never know
You won't learn the truth about me.

Shivelry, will get you somewhere
A show of respect and kindness will go a long way.

Rivalry, will take you there
Competing with others only leads to more conflict.

Maybe I should look away
Perhaps I should avoid the situation.

Before I really miss
Before I regret something.

Maybe I should pick the time
Choose the right moment to prevent a negative outcome.

Before I pick the place
Selecting the right location is also important.

I bet you all the things
I am confident in my stance.

That you emulate, you penalize
What you copy, you will be punished for.

But I don't want to go
I don't want to leave until the situation is resolved.

Before you learn to finalize
Before decisions and actions have been settled.

You assitane the plot
You're not doing me any favors.

My vision's overshot
My expectations are too high.

I have the best confection
I believe my way is the best solution.

I was gone for all the lessons
I missed out on important lessons.

Who coined these words I use
Who created the language I am using to communicate?

Stay out and be abused
Don't involve yourself in something that will cause you harm.

I didn't want to be
My intentions weren't to cause harm.

The undeniable source of everything
I don't want to be blamed for everything that goes wrong.

Need change, watching all the conflicts
I desire change and am witnessing many sources of conflict.

Constrict, push the fist in, squeeze it
Feeling confined and restrained, I want to fight back.

I can not resist, claws and fist
I am unable to hold back my aggression and frustration.

Remember, remember
Don't forget the reasons for our actions.

You take the rivalries
You engage in unnecessary competition.

And never made much sense
It doesn't seem logical or productive.

I have the worst possession
I have a negative holding on something.

What I want is so insensitive
I am not considering the feelings of others in what I desire.

Cause this is so confused
This situation is unclear and chaotic.

I only want to be
All I desire is.

Left over, now run away
I want to be left alone and for others to move on.

You'd better stay away
It's best for you to avoid me and my complicated situation.
