Stone Sour - Zzyzx Rd. Lyrics






I don't know how else to put this
It's taken me so long to do this
I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight
My muscles feel like a melee
My body's curled in a U-shape
I put on my best, but I'm still afraid

Propped up by lies and promises
Saving my place as life forgets
Maybe it's time I saw the world
I'm only here for awhile
But patience is not my style
And I'm so tired that I got to go

What am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?
Tell me I should stick around for you, tell me I could have it all
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go

I get to go home in one week, but I'm leaving home in three weeks
They throw me a bone just to pick me dry
I'm following suit and directions
I crawl up inside for protection
I'm told what to do and I don't know why

I'm over existing in limbo
I'm over the myths and placebos
I don't really mind if I just fade away
I'm ready to live with my family
I'm ready to die in obscurity
'Cause I'm so tired that I got to go

Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
You still don't think I'm going see this through?
Tell me I'm a part of history
Tell me I could have it all
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go

I'm still too tired to care and I got to go [x5]

    When you realize you started developing Corey's same music taste maybe it's a sign he's a little too good at expressing himself in his songs

  4. C.... Y....

    Hits different when you listen to it on a road called zzyzx

    I don't know how else to put this
    It's taken me so long to do this
    I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight
    My muscles feel like a melee
    My body's curled in a "U" shape
    I put on my best but I'm still afraid
    Propped up by lies with promises
    Saving my place as life forgets
    Maybe it's time I saw the world
    I'm only here for a while
    But patience is not my style
    And I'm so tired that I gotta go

    [Chorus]
    Where am I supposed to hide now?
    What am I supposed to do?
    Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?
    Tell me I should stick around for you

    Ooh, where am I supposed to hide now?

    Tell me I'm a part of history
    Tell me I could have it all
    I'm still too tired to care and I gotta go

    [Guitar Solo]

    Ooh, yeah

    [Chorus]
    Ooh, where am I supposed to hide now?
    What am I supposed to do?
    You still don't think I'm gonna see this through
    Tell me I'm a part of history
    Tell me I could have it all
    I'm still too tired to care and I gotta go
    I'm still too tired to care and I gotta go, yeah yeah

  22. a.... M....

    I was in the Army, this song got me through the harder times. That line "You still don't think I'm gonna see this through." was the line that brought it together for me. To me this song meant: "This sucks, what I have to do is rough, it sucks, but it needs to be done, and I'm gonna see this to the end."

  23. C.... H....

    K.S.B. I miss you and love you brother. Now almost 2020. Still thinking of you Kramer. I made sure your request for your funeral was carried out. As you had asked me years ago. Not knowing, you would pass in 2014. Now 12/19 still thinking of you everyday. I love you brother.❤❤❤

  37. J.... W....

    1. 30/30-150 - Excellent song, favorite ever that they made. 12/10
    2. Come What(ever) May - Awesome song, especially on the live in Moscow album. 10/10
    3. Hell & Consequences - This song is really catchy, I love it. 10/10
    4. sillyworld - I never really got used to this song in the beginning when I first heard it, then I listened to it more. It’s very catchy and great. 10/10
    5. Made Of Scars - This song I didn’t really like in the beginning until I heard it more like sillyworld and got used to it. I had a dream in this stadium while this song was playing. 10/10
    6. Reborn - Exhilarating and awesome. 10/10
    7. Your God - I don’t know about anyone else but this song tells you something. 10/10
    8. Through Glass - Basic Rock Love Song, love it. 10/10
    9. Socio - I always played this song back in the days and jammed to it.
    10. 1st Person - This song is sad to me, in a good way though. 10/10
    11. Cardiff - I like this song but it’s not really my favorite that they’ve made. 8/10
    12. Zzyzx Rd. - Like Through Glass it’s a Love Song basically in a rock way, I absolutely love it. 11/10

    Corey: GOD WHAT DO I CALL THIS DAMN SONG?!?!?!
    Corey: **smashes face to keyboard**
    Everyone else: GREAT IDEA!!!

    M.... C....

    No it's an actual road. Has some history if you read about it.

    M.... C....

    @Strange Wayfaring Stranger wow I bet you're fun at parties. 😒

  55. I.... R....

    WTF??? Corey, don't you dare to leave Slipknot for this again. Not saying is a bad song, is just that Slipknot is much better than this. Just saying

    I.... R....

    Isaac Romero there both great bands

  56. C.... H....

    Wow. Just fucking wow

  57. E.... C....

    Corey wrote this song about alcohol's rehab. That shit is not a joke. It can destroy your entire life and people you love.

  61. r.... l....

    Cory cock in my mouth please

    r.... l....

    @Goolius Boozler Just so happens she's not very far from you lol

    r.... l....

    @Christi Huff-Clements
    IkR.. The odds of that seem.. infinitesimal.
    Just like the fact that you both have "Huff" as part of your name.
    What's goin' On here?

    r.... l....

    @Goolius Boozler lol and how would i know how far she is from you? Hmmm....

    r.... l....

    @Christi Huff-Clements

    😉

  62. 4.... 7....

  63. T.... N....

    Why are his "softer" songs always his best?

  64. L.... R....

    Love this song so mich

  65. M.... M....

    I just wish the “oooo! Yeeeeeaaaahhh!” Wasn’t in there. It kinda diminishes the song, just a little bit.

    M.... M....

    Yep, so true.
    I don't even listen to the whole track bcz that last minute or so just ruins an Amazing song.

  66. G.... ....

    My fav one from them :) made sense to me the most when I joined the Air Force

  67. T.... B....

    I missed this song. IM BACK FOR YOU. 🔥🔥

  68. T.... ....

    I've always liked this song, but the symbolism in this video really hit me hard. I think it's an accurate description of life's phases.... I realize I've always been
    tired, want to go home, and seem to get thrown a bone just to pick me dry. I' m middle aged now and ready to live with my family and die in obscurity.

  69. R.... P....

    this is a 2006 song

  70. K.... S....

  74. C.... H....

    My brother (also called Corey) chose this song for his funeral. He passed away from cancer in February 2019 at 26 years old, 7 months after diagnosis. He said this song was exactly how he felt in his last months. This song hits hard every time I hear it 🖤 RIP bruv. 1992-2019

    C.... H....

    This was a beautiful and tragic story, thank you for sharing with everyone, sincerely, I hope you had a great life together. 💔

  89. H.... t....

    in jan 2018 i left for Fort Benning GA to join the army mos 11B (infantry), i didn't know what to expect when i got there(big mistake on my part) the first week at reception was easy except the bays where hot as hell so we sweat a shit ton in our sleep. first morning i woke up and felt like i was gonna pass out, but after reception the shit hit the fan, i think i broke at the end of red phase, which was hard to last that long, i first day was great but i fucked up on the second day and couldn't stop after, getting yelled at 24/7 really fucked me up to be honest, eventually i tried hanging myself but was found and sent to the mental ward, this song hit me really hard, the lyrics"i get to go home in one week, but im leaving home in three weeks", i thought of that as not knowing the answer to when i would be discharged, "where am i supposed to hide now, what am i supposed to do, you still dont think im gonna see this through". i wanted to just hide from everyone all the time so i stayed in the stall for long periods of time, i never knew if i was doing anything right and got paranoid i was being watched, and people were all saying i was gonna try to try to kill myself again which i did break a couple days before i left so i stayed a week in 4th floor and left the day i got out, i was extremely depressed when i got home, for months i hated living, eventually started riding bmx, the people at the skate park and my work place all accepted me as a family slowly i began to be happier and more confident in myself, i heard this song while riding one night and it just hit me i had to sit down and just listen, the emotions in basic training all came out in this song, the point is im better now, and happier than ive been in a long time. the army made me a better man, but it just wasn't for me which hurt cause it was my dream job. im thinking on becoming a counselor now to help people deal with depression but not sure only time will tell.

    H.... t....

    Do it!!! Don't Hesitate!! Those that are still fighting that demon need someone like you especially our military to open up to.

  90. F.... S....

    What does zzyzx rd mean?

  91. M.... R....

    Heard it just now, it’s a good song, very relatable to anybody anywhere who’s got real problems in life and when you play this track, it makes you carry on and face to whatever life throws at you.

  92. L.... E....

    Que música, que voz! 😍💖💖💖Corey

  93. S.... B....

    LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!
