Subject: LYRICS: "Korn" by Korn (Part 1) These are the lyrics for Korn's debut as I hear them. I've seen them live, this is what I hear live and on the album. The song at the end is "Sean Olson," which is on the promo for "Shoots and Ladders." -BLIND- ARE YOU READY? This place inside my mind A place I like to hide You don't know the chances What if I should die? A place inside my brain Another kind of pain You don't know the chances I'm so blind Blind Blind Another means I find To escape the pain inside You don't know the chances What if I should die A place inside my brain Another kind of pain You don't know the chances I'm so blind Blind Blind Demon .... give in inside .... to Hint of a life that seems to be A lost reality that I can never find No way to reach my inner self I stay this low, how deep can I go In the ground that I lay If I don't find a way to Sift through the grey that cloud my mind This time I'm not just sure it's between lines I can see I can see I'm going blind I can see I can see I'm going blind I'm blind -BALL TONGUE- There you are alone With no hope of ever having Something to be proud of Something earned without begging Yes I know you're a person A person close to me Who do you think you are ... ... ... ... for me BALL TONGUE ........................ BALL TONGUE ........................ BALL TONGUE ........................ BALL TONGUE Look what they've done to me Why are you at home Buried in your self-pity Why do you insist on Living the life... out of me Yes I know you're the person The person that took time with me Does that give you the right to extract your life from those around me? (Same as last chorus, except it's "Those fucking bastards, they took, they took, look what they've done to me") You were my pride Where does a friendship end? I'm not gonna give in How can you ball tongue doubt me but not again BALL TONGUE I'm ..... ..... by my friends BALL TONGUE ............................. BALL TONGUE .... .... sycophant .....
