Slipknot - Gehenna Meaning

Gehenna Lyrics

Do you believe? Do you fade like a Dream?

   It deals with obsession from the person with the obsession's point of view and wanting to let go of the facade and being true to yourself, as monstrous as it may seem. Vocally, I'm doing some shit that ive never done before and its fucking disturbing, but very beautiful at the same time.

   This song is about how people sell their soul to The Devil. He's asking them if they believe that this is real. He's asking them if they believe that this actually happened to them. (I Think)
