Slipknot – Unsainted

Da findet man heute morgen ein neues Musikvideo von Slipknot und kann es nicht posten, weil ja eine Musikvideo-Premiere eingeplant war und ich für Abwechslung sorgen möchte. Auch wenn einen halben Tag und etwa zwei Millionen Views später, sollte der neue Clip seinen Nachrichtenwert besitzen. Schon alleine, weil im zweiten Comeback-Video nach „All Out Life“ endlich die neue Masken-Stufe der Herren aus Iowa zu sehen ist. Dazu gibt es ordentlich was auf die Fresse (also, musikalisch gesehen) und Regiseur M. Shawn Crahan hat ein wirklich schön anzusehendes Stück Videokunst geschaffen, das zur Atmosphäre des Tracks passt. Keine kongeniale Story, aber mit einigen richtig intensiven Bildern.

Lyrics:

Oh, I’ll never kill myself to save my soul/I was gone but how was I to know?
I didn’t come this far to sink so low/I’m finally holding on to letting go

I’m just weathering a rough patch… another villain with an itch to scratch
Denial is the darkest when you live in a hole
Why does the Hell make you feel so cold?
Make a move and you pay for it/Pick a Lord and you pray to it
You’re so demanding when you want the truth, but your stories don’t read for me
Oh, I’ll never kill myself to save my soul/I was gone but how was I to know?
I didn’t come this far to sink so low/I’m finally holding on to letting go

Indecision Overload/Keep a buckle on the Devil and your eyes on the road
Reaching out for the hand of God, but did you Think- You’d- Shake- Your- Own?
This Killing Field is all grown over- the Motherfucker wants it wild
Go sew your oats in alphabetical order/the Anti-Antagonist is back- in- style
MYOPIC/Cannot See Straight/DYSTOPIC/One Sin Too Late
You got to lie if you want to believe, but your Bibles don’t work on me
Oh, I’ll never kill myself to save my soul/I was gone but how was I to know?
I didn’t come this far to sink so low/I’m finally holding on to letting… GO

Did you think you could win? And fill me in?
Did you think you could do it again? I’m not your sin
I was all that you wanted and more- but you didn’t want me
I was more than you thought I could be
So I’m setting you free- I’m setting you free

You’ve Killed The Saint In Me
How Dare You Martyr Me
You’ve Killed The Saint In Me

Oh, I’ll never kill myself to save my soul/I was gone but how was I to know?
I didn’t come this far to sink so low/I’m finally holding on to letting go

You’ve Killed The Saint In Me/How Dare You Martyr Me
You’ve Killed The Saint In Me/How Dare You Martyr Me
