"Prelude 3.0", sebuah lagu yang dibawakan oleh Slipknot, menggemakan tema pertobatan dan harapan yang pupus. Lagu ini dimulai dengan intro introspektif, di mana sang narator mengungkapkan penyesalan atas kegagalan mereka untuk mengungkapkan perasaan mereka. Saat lirik berlanjut, rasa bersalah dan kehilangan yang menghantui menjadi jelas, menyoroti akhir dari suatu hubungan. Namun, di antara keputusasaan, ada secercah harapan, karena sang narator mendambakan saat ketika mereka dapat melepaskan "kulit pahit" dan dosa-dosa kecil mereka, mencari penebusan dalam kehidupan yang baru.
Prelude 3.0 Lyrics
Slipknot
I don't know why...
...I never told you
I don't know why...
...I never tried
When we shed these bitter skins again
All the reasons come to life
But now it's over..
Now it's over
Now it's over
Now it's over
I don't know why
You never asked me
And I don't know why
You never cared
When we hide these little sins again
All the reasons
Have to die...
But now it's over
Now it's over
And now it's over
And now it's over
And now it's over! [x4]
No!
...I never told you
I don't know why...
...I never tried
When we shed these bitter skins again
All the reasons come to life
But now it's over..
Now it's over
Now it's over
Now it's over
I don't know why
You never asked me
And I don't know why
You never cared
When we hide these little sins again
All the reasons
Have to die...
But now it's over
Now it's over
And now it's over
And now it's over
And now it's over! [x4]
No!
