Sys...tem...
Sys...tem...
Sys...tem

You fell away,
What more can I say?
The feelings evolved
I won't let it out
I can't replace
your screaming face
feeling the sickness inside

Chorus:
Why wont you die?
Your blood in mine
Will be fine
Then your body will be mine

So many words
Cant describe my face
This feelings evolved
So soon to break out
I can't relate
To a happy state
Feeling the blood run inside

Chorus

Why is everything so fucking hard for me?
Keep me down to what you think I should be
must you tempt me and provoke the ministry?
Keep on trying, I'm not dying so easily (I will not die)

Why is everything so fucking hard for me? (I will not die)
Why is everything so fucking hard for me? (I will not die)

    General Comment:i think the movie version with jon davis is better on all the songs except forsaken and not meant for me, david dramain and wayne static did those great , jon davis just has an erotic voice that fits the vampire persona

    General Comment:yeh korn.. well jonathan davis did this song originally for the queen of the damned movie. but if you havent heard the whole story, the label wouldnt let jon sing songs on a different label or something so he went and got other people to perform the songs on the actual soundtrack

    chester, wayne static (static-x), jay gordon (orgy), marilyn manson and david draiman (disturbed) all did the songs

    General Comment:i never seen the film, but it sounds awesome and all...i found this on a download site and i love it! great work to chester and all, one of the best i've heard him sing ^^
    when i hear it, i feel that it's like someone trying to kill the other -obviously when reading the lyrics- and they have a split personality. They want the other to die, but then both will be fine...then he says that he won't die, and for the other not to provoke him...its hard to explain kinda but thats what i think!

    General Comment:I actually have another version of this song, it's shorter and to me it sounds like JD is singing (I know for sure he wrote the lyrics). Anyway, love both versions!

    General Comment:Hmm...I watched 'Queen of the Damned' after I read this, just so I could hear the song... Figures I didn't notice it when it came on and missed it. XD
