Stone Sour

Zzyxz Road

I don't know how else to put this.
It's taking me so long to do this.
I'm falling asleep and I can't see straight.

My muscles feel like a melee,
My body's curled in a U-shape.
I put on my best, but I'm still afraid.

Propped up by lies and promises.
Saving my place as life forgets.
Maybe it's time I saw the world.

I'm only here for a while.
And patience is not my style,
And I'm so tired that I got to go.

Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
Did you really think I wouldn't see this through?

Tell me I should stick around for you.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.

I get to go home in one week.
But I'm leaving home in three weeks.
They throw me a bone just to pick me dry.

I'm following suit and directions.
I crawl up inside for protection.
I'm told what to do and I don't know why.

I'm over-existing in limbo
I'm over the myths and placebos
I don't really mind if I just fade away

I'm ready to live with my family.
I'm ready to die in obscurity
Cause I'm so tired that I got to go.

Where am I supposed to hide now?
What am I supposed to do?
You still don't think I'm gonna see this through.

Tell me I'm a part of history.
Tell me I can have it all.
I'm still too tired to care and I got to go.

Its about.. | Reviewer: Georgiee | 7/7/10

Zzyzx rd is actually about getting over a drug addiction. It's a lovely song, but most people think it is about a brake up or even war, but if you read the words it's not =)

I absolutly love Stone Sour, and in my opinion thos is one of their best songs.


I love it | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/15/10

It's a great song. I play it everyday i can and sometimes more then once a hour.. It makes me thing alot about my family and girlfriend cuz I'm in the Air Force now and will be going to "the sandbox" in june.. I'll miss them all but mostly Megan. Love you Megan!!


Fabulous | Reviewer: Dominic Jones | 1/18/10

I love this song... I think it is about Corey Taylor and his divorce.
Some of the Slipknot songs might possibly be about that situation in his life as well. (Vermillion and Vermillion Part 2)
I love this song. It's sad but I still love it.


LOVE IT! | Reviewer: Crimsonqueen666 | 5/9/09

i personaly thought at first that it was about the military idea of the war in iraq. now that i read it on wikipedia that its about his alcohol thingy. but before that i read about the never ending road, i thought that was a good meaning. too bad my mom hates traveling to deserts. i live in los angeles, california and i would like to drive on that road with a icebox thing filled with ice cold water! lolbut honestly i dont like desserts. like come on, im like suffering in this california heat waves, so imagine me in the dessert! so yeah, i LOVE corey's writing and he always makes such an impact on me that i could listen to this song forever and ever. i love the songs Inhale, Bother, monolith and of course this one the most out of Stone Sour. ive seen them live once at the jagermeister tour and they are AWESOME!
keep it sic!


Meaning | Reviewer: Mabrey | 2/1/09

Zzyzx Rd. is an actual road. It leads from Las Angeles to Las Vegas. Whenever he rides on this road, he feels secluded. Either side of the road is surrounded by seemingly endless desert. He also wishes he could see his family more often.


Iraq... | Reviewer: Jennifer...missing her soldier :( | 11/13/08

This song could have a million meanings...but for me and my family...it has to do with being overseas in the military fighting in this stupid fucking war. Especially the line...****I get to go home in one week.
But I'm leaving home in three weeks.
They throw me a bone just to pick me dry.*** That's exactly how leave is..they come home for three weeks time from, give or take, and then have to go away AGAIN..it's like throwing a dog a bone..they get a small taste of the goodness...but without the meat, the bone is just a bone...without everyday with your family, it's just more time spent with them. Granted I will give anything in the world for that time together...it still sucks going so long without seeing him, getting to see him for a few weeks and then having to deal with him going back to the sandbox for a few more months. This is our second deployment and I am absolutely in love with this song.


ok | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/28/08

idk if you guys knew this but its about him trying to quit his addiction to alcohol because his wife was going to leave him. But im sure it could mean something completely different to someone else.


kinda obvious | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/20/08

i agree that you can take whatever meaning suits you, but this song has gotta be about all the soldiers in iraq...... just read the lyrics, and we all know CT is not a big fan of the war. and ZZyxz road leads to Ft. Irwin CA- which happens to be the major US desert warfare training center. Can't be coincedence.........


Great song | Reviewer: Midnights Mystique | 10/7/08

I am not going to say what I think it means. do to everyone gets their own means but I can relate alot to this do to personal reasons. So Whatever you get from this is your thing but I know I got mine.


People are Harsh | Reviewer: ryer | 8/20/08

I don't know who couldn't like this song (ahem...stashy). Even though no one can make up there minds about what it means i agree with billy. i found a completly different meaning in this song that relates to my family. actually listen to the song and i'm sure everyone comes up with something different
