Forsaken
Korn · Other Songs - Korn
You see I'm falling in the vast abyss
Clouded by memories of the past
At last, I see
I hear it fading, I can't speak it
Or else you will dig my grave
We fear them finding always whining
Take my hand now, be alive
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you, feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone
I'm over it, why can't we be together
Erase it, sleeping so long
Taking up the mass, at last, I see
My fear is fading, I can't speak it
Or else you will dig my grave
You fear them finding always winding
Take my hand now, be alive
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you, feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone
You see I cannot be forsaken
Because I'm not the only one
We walk amongst you, feeding, raping
Must we hide from everyone
Everyone
Everyone
Everyone

The recording captures the raw energy and technical proficiency that characterized their live performances, cementing their status as pioneers of the modern heavy metal landscape. As a staple in their catalog, "Forsaken" remains a powerful representation of the genre's impact on late 1990s and early 2000s rock music.
