"What's Next" is the ninth track on We Are Not Your Kind.

Background[]

"I don't know how I'd describe this! That's another of the segues that was from the mind of Clown. And, actually, some of these arrangements had working titles, which then changed, and we've been working on them for so long that, unless I hear it, I don't really know which is which. You get used to something being called a certain name for two years, and then it changes and you're like, 'What song is that now?.'"
Jim Root[1]

A demo version of "What's Next" featuring vocals was featured on Knotfest's Slipknot Vault: Time Travel.[2]

Lyrics[]

[Instrumental]

Note: There are no official lyrics available. Unconfirmed words are in red.
[Verse]
So softly words were broke/heard
No/Those sickly secrets learned
Conceal the blue you/you've got to taste
When the years end tonight/end night/nigh
Became the final light/lie/laugh
The tensions worse than my face
Goodbye to (the) threats and blues
You feel just like the flu
Those spiders are here to take me home
Go
