The House of Gold & Bones Lyrics

Oh this is what its coming to
Another water loo
You wanna put me underground
'Cause I'm overused
Giving up that your pulling me down
I will make you come unglued

You can cover me in sovilties
What an apogee
I can fake it 'cause you'll never be real to me
I'm innocent, I know I'm nearly in
But if I can't understand I will never win

The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey, but I'll always decide

Oh my heart survived
I gotta do it alone
I will burn alive in the house of gold and bones

Oh old day epitome
Of all the shit in me
And I'm surrounded by the people I will never be
Either way I've got nothing to prove
To a song of a bitch like you
Well this is hell and I wanted it
But I'm an idiot
Its a feat 'cus I know I'm illegitimate

Kill it
I wanna see it
I wanna feel it
I will be here forever

The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey, and I'll always decide

Oh my heart survived
I gotta do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones

The more I know my mind
The more I leave this world behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'm already gone, I'm already alive

Oh my heart survived
I gotta do it alone
I will burn alive in the house of gold and bones

Oh my heart survived
I gotta do it alone
I will burn alive in the house of gold and bones
In the house of gold and bones
In the house of gold and bones

The House of Gold & Bones

This track closes House Of Gold And Bones: Part 2, the second half of a double concept album about a man called The Human struggling to find his place in the world. Frontman Corey Taylor's narrative is intended to be universal, speaking to everyone's hopes and fears. He told Artist Direct about this cut: "That was the last song we put together before we went into the studio," he said. "Thematically, it was almost tailor-made for us to do it this way. It was basically made up of flipping certain riffs from 'Gone Sovereign' and 'Absolute Zero' and sort of playing them backwards in a weird way. If you listen to it thematically, you can see where some of it backwards, but you have to really listen to it."

"We needed the outro," he continued. "We needed that moment where the human has made his decision and he's sticking with it no matter what that decision is. That's all open to the reader. You need that moment. You need the big crescendo. You need the final act to draw you in and leave you with that closure. That was the perfect song to do it with."
