[Intro: Corey Taylor, Corey Taylor & Shawn Crahan]

Pain, made to order

Pain, made to order

Pain, made to order

Pain


[Verse: Corey Taylor]

I'm not the second coming, I'm the first wave

Better get an army, 'cause the fire left me unscathed

You betcha bottom dollar I'm the top of the shit pile

So stick around, 'cause I'll get to you in just a few

Step off the achtung, get back or get stung

Idiotic sense of yourself, are you that dumb?

Entire legion of me, totalitarian

The one and only motherfucker, top of the world, man

'Cause I can't stand it, planned it, gonna crash-land it

In other words, consider me branded

Another version of me, another version of you

Both barrels, what you gonna do?


[Bridge: Corey Taylor]

All I hear is human noise

You made your own fucking choice

I belong to only me

Silence for my revelry


[Breakdown: Corey Taylor]

I can only die over time

Filthy hands, stay away from mine

Every reason is a right to hate

Painful clutch

Death is fine, give me mine

[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Shawn Crahan, & Chris Fehn, Shawn Crahan]

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away


[Breakdown: Corey Taylor]

Somebody explain this

You don't care, 'cause you don't exist

What the fuck is this, another joke?

Reckoning


[Chorus: Corey Taylor, Shawn Crahan, & Chris Fehn]

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away

Only one of us walks away

[Outro: Corey Taylor & Shawn Crahan]

Only one of us walks away (Walks away)

Only one of us walks away (Walks away)

Only one of us walks away (Walks away)

Only one of us walks away (Walks away)
