"But I won't let this build up inside me"
..............................................
She seems dressed in all of me, \
Stretched across my shame, \
All the torment and the pain, \
Leaked through and covered me, > Riff 1
I'd do anything to have her to myslelf, /
Just to have her for myself, /
Now I Don't know what to do. /
I don't know what to do, \
When she makes me sad. /Riff 2
She is everything to me, \
The unrequited dream, \
A song that no one sings, \
The unattainable, > Riff 1
She's a myth that I have to believe in, /
All I need to make it real is one more reason, /
I don't know what to do. /
I don't know what to do, \ Riff 2
When she makes me sad. /
But I won't let this build up inside of me >Riff 3 or Riff 3.5
I catch in my throat, \
Choke, \
Torn into pieces, \
I won't, > Riff 3
No, /
I don't want to be this, /
But I won't let this build up inside of me. \ Riff 3
(Won't let this build up inside of me) / or Riff 3.5
(won't let this build up inside of me) \
She isn't real, \
(won't let this build up inside of me) > Riff 1
I can't make her real, /
(won't let this build up inside of me) /

The ending part is done on the piano but you can also play it on guitar.

This is a wicked song. I never thought Slipknot would make a good acoustic song and
did. The CD is awesome, I reccommend if you don't have it, BUY IT!!! It blows the other
clearly out of the water.
