Cover art for Diluted lyrics by Slipknot

i think that this song is talking about how people arnt what they seem....."I can stare into a thousand eyes But every smile hides a bold-faced lie" in seeing this he starts to realize that things are falling apart and he notices the "overall deficiancies" and has opened up a part of his mind that destroys things he onced believed in. He discovers that he cant really rely on anybody......
