Diluted Lyrics

Lyric discussion by scriptus 

Cover art for Diluted lyrics by Slipknot

This song is Corey Taylor’s own rendition of Interloper (an earlier Slipknot song written by Anders). Up until 1998, this song remained mostly unchanged, with Corey only changing the verses to his white-boy rapping. When Slipknot went out into Indigo Ranch to record the self-titles album, Corey had changed the lyrics and the band evolved the overall structure of the song, resulting in Diluted being born. This song in its current form was never performed live, due to Corey stating that it’s about a time he doesn’t want to remember.
