She seems dressed in all the rings
Of past fatalities
So fragile yet so devious
She continues to see it
Climatic hands that press
Her temples and my chest
Enter the night that she came home
Forever
Oh (She's the only one that makes me sad)
She is everything and more
The solemn hypnotic
My Dahlia, you're bathed in possession
She is on to me
I get nervous, perverse when I see her it's worse
But the stress is astounding
It's now or never she's coming home
Forever
Oh (She's the only one that makes me sad)
Hard to say what caught my attention
Vixen crazy, Aphid Attraction
Carve my name in my face, to recognize
Such a pheromone cult to terrorize [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/slipknot/vermilion.html ]
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Yeah! )
I'm a slave, and I am a master
No restraints and, unchecked collectors
I exist through my need, to self oblige
She is something in me, that I despise
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
The song is saying how he's in love with this made up girl, and how he hates that he can't be wth her because she isn't real, and he has to convince himself of that. The video is almost a flip of what the song says. The girl is real, but she's isolated in the world. Any time she gets just close enough to touch something, the world takes it away. That's why she's so happy with the dead butterfly or moth or whatever - its not going to leave her
Vermilion song meaningclose or esc keyi think it might be the way corey describes how he felt or feels for his wife (or you could just relate it as you like a chick and this is how you feel around her or about her) that he has finally found someone in his life... And really nothing can describe... It's just that special to him... But has a twist to it.. That in the end as much as the obsession starts to build you start noticing little things about the person you haven't before... Fights happen.. Disagreements and the perfect person you thought you had before.. Isn't so perfect anymore.. And there is just something... He doesn't know what it is that just draws him to her. 'vermilion pt. 1' is about the enrapturing, the buildup, the anticipation and the neurosis," says taylor.
This song is so good... That end part (she isnt real!!! Then the soft part that repeats) builds up so much tension, but then again this whole song builds up so much tension! Love it!!
For me this song describes perfectly the slow progression of madness when you get addicted to an imaginary person / ideal. The first verse shows that she really is everything he asks for, and the other ones describes the way he makes her an ideal although he knows, of course, that she isn't real. That's what the last screamed part describes, it's like the surprising end of a novel or an essay, "she isn't real". He knows that she comes from his mind and so he falls into madness and screams his obsession. All the power of the last part is in the way it is screamed, not like some other songs where he just screams, but more like if all his madness and rage flows in the lyrics.
Lmao, venomous heart that was quite hilarious. Just reading comments to rate and i c that and it made meh giggle, so u got a thumbs up. Lol, how funny. Anywho, this song is amazing and very catchy. I find myself singing it all the time... ^^ and nice grammar lil mrs. 7th grader. U should be a writer like me. Maggots for life!!!
Also the lines... She isnt real... Cant make her real(he is convincing himself and also ordering his mind to not make it real... Just discard the memories as a bad dream or somethin')... Guess thats it... The song is hynotic as it takes you through both the world s of his mind at the sam e time...
Well i agree with everyone.. So here is my piece of idea... I think this is a break-up song?... Seems like the girl dumped him and he is totally depressed about it... So a part of him is still fucked up in past memories and he despises the girl the fact she is no more with him... And the other part of him wants to move on and wants to get over with it(the lines... I wont let this build up inside of me... Im the slave and im the master)... He doesnt wants this post love depression and craziness overcome him... Cant blame him can we?... Arent we all like this?
This song is about a guy who met a girl who was everything he wanted, and yet, everything he despised... Sort of like his other half... He loves her and yet he hates her... He wouldnt let either emotion of love or hate build up inside of him, but he realizes later that he had imagined her... She isnt and wasnt ever real... A creepy, sad song. I totally love slipknot. Maggots for life!!! ^^
This song is basically describing a fantasy that he's fallin' in love with. This woman is everything he's ever wanted, and all he needs. However, she's (obviously) not real and he has to except that. Love can suck sometimes, so why not make up a hottie to think about while you masturbate!!! Xd
