I came back
To face what's growing in my head
Please get away from me
Take advantage of what I feel
Yes you do
One day you'll beg for me

So I'm saying nothing
Each day taking that much more
As I'm scheming all my fate
You will be there counting

You just see me as something
As something you throw around
You were there for me
Beating down to the ground
Yes it always seems
You take more from me

So I'm saying nothing
Each day taking that much more
As I'm scheming all my fate
You will be there counting

It's funny how we've just started
They get the money for the things on you
They give ya money, and the girls and the fame
I only do it for the fun and the games

It's funny how we've just started
They get the money for the things on you
They give ya money, and the girls and the fame
I only do it for the fun
That's my game

So I'm saying nothing
Each day taking that much more
As I'm scheming all my fate
You will be there counting

    No, I think it's about how the music industry use Korn to make money. "It's funny how we've just started They get the money for the things on you They give ya money, and the girls and the fame I only do it for the fun and the games". the label try to buy him with money, girls and fame and he feels like a whore, kinda "Dirty" or "Freak On A Leash". The title "Counting" it's about how the label count the money as Jonathan suffer.
