About Sillyworld

"Sillyworld" is the third single from Stone Sour's 2006 album Come What(ever) May. It reached number two on the Mainstream Rock charts in 2007. A video for the song, directed by David Brucha, was released in February 2007, combining images of corporate America with pictures of clenched fists of resistance, revolutionists such as Mao Zedong, Ayatollah Khomeini, Che Guevara, and AK-47 assault rifles. According to the Roadrunner Records website: "The video for Stone Sour's 'Silly World' takes a crack at all the bullshit going on in the world today. ..apathy, tyranny, poverty, violence, and greed are all targets."The lyrics are a critique of how ideas are becoming nothing but symbols through media corruption, and then dying off as they lose their significance. It speaks of instances such as love becoming "Just a song," or peace being "Just two fingers now... just a phase." Similar to "Through Glass", the content of the song is angry and has rebellious undertone, despite its softer, slower instrumental style. more »

Freedom's just a word today, freedom's just a word
When someone takes your word away, it's seldom ever heard
So take a sentence full of things you're not supposed to say and carry on
But don't write em down, or you'll be gone

Love is just a song today, love is just a song
When someone takes the song away, you seldom sing along
So take those lyrics serious and sing your life away
Carry on but don't write em down, or they'll be gone

All we ever do is talk, we like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy we get bored
Why can't anybody see, what's good for you is good for me
I can't take your silly world
I can't take your silly world no more
 
Peace is just two fingers now, peace was just a phase
When someone put it on a shirt, you knew to count the days
So take those fingers, tape em up and shove em up your ass
Carry on but don't try it now, cuz peace is gone

 All we ever do is talk, we like to ride, but we never walk
We make it so damn easy we get bored
Why can't anybody see, what's good for you is bad for me
I can't take your silly world
I can't take your silly world no more
We fight our instincts,we go to extremes

We fight our lives
