The date of Aug. 7, 2019 will stand as a historic day in the world of rock and metal as Tool delivered on long-promised new material, releasing "Fear Inoculum," the title track of their highly anticipated new record.

As is typically the case with the ambitiously progressive band, the lyrics offer a lot to dig into. The Internet will certainly be flooded with conspiracies about the true meaning of the song and we doubt Maynard James Keenan will fully disclose it anytime soon.

Read the lyrics to "Fear Inoculum" below.

Immunity, long Overdue. Contagion, I exhale you

Naïve, I opened up to you, venom and mania.

Now Contagion, I exhale you. The Deceiver says, “You belong to me. You don’t wanna breath the light of the others.

Fear the light. Fear the breath. Fear the others for eternity.”

But I hear them now. Inhale the clarity. I hear the venom in what you say. Inoculated.

Bless this immunity. Exhale. Expel. Recast my tale. Weave my allegorical elegy. Enumerate all that I’m to do. Calculating steps away from you.

My own mitosis, growing through division from mania. Exhale. Expel. Recast my tale. Weave my allegorical elegy. Forfeit all control, you Poison, you Spectacle.

Exorcise the Spectacle. Exorcise the malady.

Exorcize the disparate poison for eternity. Purge me and Evacuate the Venom & the Fear that binds me.

Your veil now, lift away. I see you running. Deceiver, chased away. A Long time coming.

Fear Inoculum, which comes out Aug. 30, will serve as the first full length from Tool since 2006's 10,000 Days. Pre-order it here. Check out Tool's tour dates here.
