"Spit It Out" (2000)

"Wait and Bleed" é um single do primeiro álbum de estúdio da banda Slipknot.

A música conta sobre um homem que tem repetitivos pesadelos dele mesmo deitado numa banheira cheia de sangue com seus pulsos cortados, e um dia ele acorda e vê que não era um sonho e sim a realidade, mas ele não quer acreditar, então ele tenta dormir de novo e acordar normalmente, mas basicamente, ele "espera e sangra". A música também é conhecida por aparecerem os membros da banda feitos em plasticina.

SLIPKNOT - WAIT AND BLEED

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed.

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

Goodbye!

I wipe it off the tile, the light is brighter this time Everything is 3-d blasphemy My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up This is not the way i pictured me I can't control my shakes! How the hell did i get here? Something about this, so very wrong I have to laugh out loud, i wish i didn't like this Is it a dream or a memory?

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

Get out my mind because i don't need this!

Why didn't i see this? I'm a victim--manchurian candidate

I-have-sinned-by-just

Makin my mind up and takin your breath away

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

Goodbye!

You haven't learned a thing I haven't changed a thing The flesh was in my bones The pain is always free

You haven't learned a thing I haven't changed a thing The flesh was in my bones The pain is always free

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

I've felt the hate rise up in me Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves I wonder out where you can't see Inside my shell i wait and bleed

And it waits for you!!!....
