Ever feel like the world has you in a chokehold, and you're just one grievance away from snapping? Welcome to Corey Taylor's lyrical therapy session. This track is a rebellious anthem for those who refuse to be anyone's hero or scapegoat. With lines like "My mouth is a gun I can shoot," Taylor channels his inner anti-hero, rejecting societal expectations and embracing raw authenticity. The song rages against the superficiality of modern life, denouncing fake personas and cheap fixes. It's about owning your flaws, bleeding if you want to bleed, and failing if you feel the need—because sometimes, being at absolute zero means you've got nothing left to lose and everything to gain. So crank up the volume and let your grievances rip; after all, why settle when you can shatter illusions?
Absolute Zero
Lyrics
The bloody angle, the symmetry
Your cheap adhesive isn't holding me
My mouth is a gun I can shoot, I can show you the truth
And I don't need a reason to lie to you
No pun intended, no punishment
If I offended you, you needed it
Ideas are the bombs in your mind, a fissure in time
If you don't have a weapon you can't have mine
I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can fail if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison
Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero
The catatonic, the sacrilege
Your primadonnas are a privilege
My god has a need to react, it's as simple as that
It's better just to settle than face the facts
I can bleed if I want to bleed
I can fail if I feel the need
This face is my last confession
This life, it feels like a prison
Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero
One thing that I can't stand
Is when the minutes fight the second hand
I'll waste a lifetime's worth
Just to cling to one more day
No fucking quarter, no premiums
The world is stuck in delirium
Man is a four-letter word, it's really absurd
The hate isn't fake, it's just inferred
Oh, I'm not afraid
I'm giving into grievances again
I'm down to absolute zero
Another zealot with the weight of the fucking world
Oh, I'm not afraid
And I will let you down as I hold you in
You're looking at an absolute zero
I'm not the devil but I won't be your hero
