"Duality" lyrics
"Duality"
I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on
I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I've waited as my time's elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much fate
I've wished for this, I've bitched at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create
I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I'll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice
I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!
Put me back together or separate the skin from bone
Leave me all the pieces, then you can leave me alone
Tell me the reality is better than the dream
But I found out the hard way, nothing is what it seems!
I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!
All I've got, all I've got is insane
All I've got, all I've got is insane
All I've got, all I've got is insane!
All I've got, all I've got is insane!
All I've got, all I've got is insane!
All I've got, all I've got is insane!
I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus, it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!
All I've got, all I've got is insane
All I've got, all I've got is insane
All I've got, all I've got is insane!
All I've got, all I've got is insane!

"Duality" was released on May 4th, 2004 as the first single from Slipknot's 3rd album, "Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)". "Duality" was a major commercial success for Slipknot, reaching record chart positions for the band at the time.
"Duality" is notorious for its chaotic and violent
music video, where the band and hundreds of fans are seen running amok and destroying a house. Roadrunner Records has listed the "Duality" music video as the greatest music video in Roadrunner history.
The word "duality" means "the state of being two or in two parts". This sets the theme for the lyrics; according to frontman Corey Taylor, "'Duality' is about standing at the crossroads of your life, looking down both paths, and going, 'Now what am I going to do?'"
Slipknot performed this song live on "The Tonight Show" with Jay Leno as part of their promotional efforts.
