All Hope Is Gone Lyrics

The State of the Nation, violation
A broken promise is as good as a lie
The Hell is humongous, the Devil's among us
And we will burn 'cause we won't unite.

What are we conceding for freedom?
Why does anybody think we need 'em?
I would rather fight than let another die
We're the Problem, but we're also the Solution...

All Hope Is Gone.

If you want it, come and take It from me
If you think you can. you still don't know me.
Let me tell you, man. I said it, I meant It
And I will always have the right to defend it.

50 seconds a hundred murders
The Bill of Rights is a bill of sale
What will you do when the war is over?
What will you do when your system fails?

We have made the present obsolete
What do you want? What do you need?
We'll find a way when all hope is gone.

We've seen the fall of the elite
Bury your life, take your disease
We'll end the world when all hope is gone.

We have made the present obsolete
What do you want? What do you need?
We'll find a way when all hope is gone.

We've seen the fall of the elite
Bury your life, take your disease
We'll end the world when all hope is gone.

The Wretched are the Wounded, the Hungry starve to death
In a place where no one goes, the air itself is a final breath
So discontinue the Antiseptic Care Charade
As the cry of justice comes, a malignant fire fades.

I am the Reason your Future suffers
I am the Hatred you won't embrace
I am the Worm of a pure gestation
I am the Remedy spit in my face.

All your laws and rules are outdated
All your subjects are killing the kings
I can rattle off a million other reasons why
But does it matter when the only thing we love will die?

We have made the present obsolete
What do you want? What do you need?
We'll find a way when all hope is gone.
We've seen the fall of the elite
Bury your life, take your disease
We'll end the world when all hope is gone.
We have made the present obsolete
What do you want? What do you need?
We'll find a way when all hope is gone.
We've seen the fall of the elite
Bury your life, take your disease
We'll end the world when all hope is gone.
When all hope is gone.
When all hope is gone.
When all hope is gone.

There is more than one artist with this name:

1) Slipknot is an American alternative/nu metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. Formed in 1995, the group was founded by percussionist Shawn Crahan and bassist Paul Gray. After several lineup changes in their early days, the band consisted of nine members for the greater part of their tenure: Sid Wilson, Paul Gray, Joey Jordison, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Crahan, Mick Thomson, and Corey Taylor. However, the death of Paul Gray on May 24, 2010, left the band with only eight remaining members. Former guitarist Donnie Steele will be the band's touring bassist in 2011.
Slipknot is well known by their attention-grabbing image, aggressive music style and chaotic live shows. The band had somewhat of a meteoric rise to success following the release of their self-titled debut album, Slipknot, in 1999. The 2001 follow-up album Iowa further increased the band's popularity. After breaking for their first hiatus, Slipknot returned in 2004 with Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses) and once again in 2008 with their fourth album All Hope Is Gone, which debuted at the top spot on the Billboard 200. The band has also released one live album, 9.0 Live, and four DVDs. Slipknot hosted their first annual music festival, called Knotfest, which was held on August 17, 2012, at Mid-America Motorplex near Pacific Junction, Iowa and August 18, 2012, in Somerset, Wisconsin. The long awaited fifth studio album is in the works and is expected to be released in 2014. Taylor has described the forthcoming album as "very dark" and a cross between Iowa and Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses). On February 27, 2014, all of Slipknot's social media outlets and official website content was blacked out. No reason for this has been said, however the band are still recording their next album.
