Lyric discussion by DreamersDisease 

I fken love this song. lol. It's so inspirational and the vocals, chords, and lyrics just scream out the strength of the friendship shared between all nine of them.

This is their song. A tribute to their friendship and the fact that they'll continue to face whatever shyt life throws at them or whatever fate has in store for them, they'll soldier on till death.

Regradless of all the shyt they've faced together in their personal life as well as music careers, their negative/positive experiences faced together only strengthens their friendships.

Their "war" is their determination and strength to endure their struggles and not to crack under the pressures of their lives.

"I've never stopped feeling like family is much more than blood" They say blood is thicker than water, but i think to eachother blood doesn't mean a shyt, it doesn't come between the fact that after all the shyt they've gone through together just as any family does in life. They're a band of brothers.

"Don't go on without me, the piece that I represent, complements each and every one" I think it's hinting something about the band here. That if any one of the nine were to decide to up and leave or "kick the bucket" (which i hope not, God forbid), the band would no longer go on, since each and everyone of the nine (#0, #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8) compliments a piece of the whole puzzle, the band i.e.

To lose a member would be to lose a family member as well as a bit of the "tie" that creates the knot, a.k.a "Slipknot".

freezedrysealdan, I hope this isn't their last album. Slipknot keep the spirit of metal music alive. \m/.
