Stone Sour (named after an alcoholic-drink consisting of one part whisky, a splash of orange juice and sour mix) was originally formed in 1992 by Corey Taylor and drummer Joel Ekman. Taylor's long time friend, Shawn Economaki, joined shortly after, and filled in as the bass player. The band had played clubs and bars with various different guitarists - often filling the position for just one show. During this time, Stone Sour recorded two demo tapes, in 1992 and 1994. Shortly after in 1995, Jim Root - who would later join Taylor in Slipknot - joined the band.

Stone Sour
You hold me inside your iris
Like a terminal stain on life
You condescend to my primal brain
And twist me around like a knife
Cant begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Dont ask me how I am
Because youre too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you
Dont - try to be the one - person
Who has stayed - just to say
They never left me!
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn
You keep me hidden behind a curtain,
An audible human display
You feed me orchids to give me courage
And keep me in line with disdain
Cant begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Dont ask me how I am
Because youre too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you
Dont - try to be the one - person
Who has stayed - just to say
They never left me!
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn
I have nothing left for you
You left me with nothing
I live at arms length and die a little,
Between your constants by day
I want my soul back before its over,
I cant even wish you away
Cant begin to explain
The feelings I have restrained
Dont ask me how I am
Because youre too busy planning your epitaph
Let me tell you
Dont - try to be the one - person
Who has stayed - just to say
They never left me!
Aggravated, complicated, someone say it
God, I never learn
I never learn!!
