Gently Lyrics
Slipknot
Gently my mind escapes into the relaxing mode of pleasure
A pleasure that will take my mind off the reality of life
My past life
Life as I know it know
And whatever may come it slowly disappears
to somewhere in the back of my mind
It will remain there until I wish to retrieve it
Yes I will stay here for awhile for I need the break
A break from the pressures of life
and everything that lay in the palm of life's hands
This mode is incredible
It's out of this world
Too bad I must always leave it
But that's life
That's life
Shift
A pleasure that will take my mind off the reality of life
My past life
Life as I know it know
And whatever may come it slowly disappears
to somewhere in the back of my mind
It will remain there until I wish to retrieve it
Yes I will stay here for awhile for I need the break
A break from the pressures of life
and everything that lay in the palm of life's hands
This mode is incredible
It's out of this world
Too bad I must always leave it
But that's life
That's life
Shift
