My and my husband lost our little girl at birth. This was the final song at her funeral 😢it helps listening to it . As much as it rips me up. I won't let this build up inside me
To me, the song talks about the perfect “she” that he is looking for that will quiet his inner shame .... and after many failed relationships he is realizing.... “she” isn’t real....
This was played at my baby girl Alexis funeral she lived 10min. Corey and the band with this song has given me strength to live and love her even though she is gone, this song combined with my baby girl is majestic beautiful and at peace, thankyou slipknot
@@lily370 I work with her. I see her everyday. We are still friends but seeing her new boyfriend with her is tough. I treated her well and felt loved like never before.
Killpop, Snuff, Vermilion pt.1, Slipknot is proof that tragedy, even that of a relationship can create greatness like this. Just remember that these songs are therapy for the writers so they can communicate their suffering through something creative
This song got me through my darkest days. Watching my husband get sick and pass away. We listened to this alot... I will always think of him when I hear it.
This song hit me deep. In High school I was the popular girl. There was this goth kinda guy that I was friends with in class. He adored me, praised the ground I walked on. We loved each other but could never let it be out in the open. This was his song for me.... I have always and will always adore him. He showed me a good part of me that I did not know I had.
haha you couldnt trade your popularity even for a guy that dreamed to be with you your so fake and you dont even have the right to complain because youre the popular girl who can just flirt her way out of lonelieness
I've been single since I was 19 im 30 now and honestly it's better this way for me when you have time to work on yourself to become better physically and mentally. That's all you need in life no distractions
@@imrgrimmi1659 I appreciate your honesty & awareness. Your so brave &strong for being honest. I'm sure your in shock. You deserve happiness. I hope you are supported 💛💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
More reasons to love Corey and Slipknot. Both parts are just so dramatic and tell a different story in themselves. They both sum up to tell a journey of developing a crush on someone to end up being in one-sided love and the phase of denial and moving on. Hats off to the best Metal Band.
She is everything to me The unrequited dream A song that no one sings The unattainable She's a myth that I have to believe in All I need to make it real. 💙
it hurts to know to know that no matter how hard you'll try, she'll never love you. not my first time listening to this song, and definitely won't be the last the way things are going. thank you slipknot for helping me through these times
@@HadFourEyes yeah idk wtf i was trippin about back then lol that girl was crazy after i looked back at everything. super controlling and i was ok with it because i felt so desperate for love. i know my worth now, and i think ive learned something from that experience
@@HadFourEyes you will. accept that whatever happened, happened and try to take your mind off it. its gonna hurt for a while but over time you'll heal. time eventually does heal all wounds, as corny as it is its just the truth
Rest in peace Chad my best friend. You showed me this song and the next time we hung out I knew every word. You made me sing the whole song and told me I killed out. That meant so much to me and I’m sure you had no idea. I love you buddy and I’m singing crying right now.
I still love him and always will. He showed me Slipknot. We were so happy, but my depression destroyed us. I can't live with the fact that i can't hug him with the same feelings and emotions like i used to. Filip, I love you and I'm sorry. I'm so heartbroken.
Can’t get over the one person I just. Can’t have, and he knows it; this song breaks my heart in every way but it’s true to every word. You just feel so strongly for one person, that it tears you apart to know you’ll never be more than a best friend. Just venting, I know no one cares. Just letting shit out before I let it out on myself or something stupid
No no, we care! You're really smart to vent here, that's healthy. You're always welcome and wanted here. That's what Slipknot does! That's what this community is all about, bringing misfits together. You'll be ok.
I use to listen to this song after me and my girlfriend broke up and I left the city cause I felt there was nothing there for me anymore. I never even went back to our apartment to get my stuff. I overcame depression a long time ago but still love this song.
this was me and my ex’s song. he left me recently bc he didn’t want a relationship, but shortly after he found someone else. it hurts so much, i can never listen to this song the same.
Really this was your ex song not judging but are you aware this is a song thats more about obsession then it is about love just letting you know thats all
Oh i told a very closed friend of mine that i like him and we are okay with that. He was like "i like you too, but rather having you as a good friend because i dont wanna mess things up" and we are literally okay with that, nothing have changed at all, i dare to say we are even closer right now. I think is all about being mature and not overthinking. Good luck mate.
@@brodythompson5930 Nu metal may be a combination but of CERTAIN kinds of music with metal. Slipkot takes the nu metal music for a ride across trash and death metal, in my opinion!
I bought this album on the day it came out. Put the CD in and didn't realise it was on shuffle. This was the first song it played. I fell in love with the album that day, and this song is in my top 10 slipknot songs ever.
I swear i've been in a long distance rs when i was like 15 to almost 17 now i'm 28 and i'm STILL hurt xD i STILL listen to this and am heaaaartbroken like wtf i never acted that i was in love like how do you just stop from one minute to another xD I TOOK U SERIOUS BACK THEN PASCAL MAN XD schadzii hahahahahaha hate uuuuuuuuuu
Idk man. Maybe it's that guitar riff, maybe it's the lyrics, or maybe it's just the pain and desperation in Corey's voice. Probably all of them tbh but it's just a really good song
i dont know how to express emotions to anyone or even myself, i dont know how to cry. but i can isolate myself and play beautifully sad songs like this to get some form of release. enjoyed reading the comments here.
Neste exato momento existem pessoas em algum lugar do mundo que são exatamente como você. Estão solitárias, sentindo falta de alguém, estão deprimidas, estão magoadas, com medo do passado, estão tendo problemas pessoais que ninguém conhece, têm segredos nos quais você não acreditaria. Elas desejam, sonham e têm esperança. E agora elas estão sentadas em algum lugar lendo essas palavras, e eu estou escrevendo isso para você, para que você não se sinta mais sozinho. Lembre-se sempre, não fique deprimido com o passado, não se preocupe com o futuro e concentre-se apenas no hoje. Se o dia de hoje não for tão bom, não se preocupe. Amanhã é uma nova chance de tentar. Sempre haverá um outro dia, uma nova chance. Vai ficar tudo bem. Você não está sozinho.
I used to have dreams. Dreams of heaven and this one girl I took care of. She was a angel, and the only person who ever loved me. Now the dreams are fading. I miss her everyday. This song reminds me of how in the dreams I would play her a song on guitar and she would curl up in my arms and sleep
I knew someone who I wanted to be together forever, like the song said I’d do anything to have her for myself. We were going well, and I was getting prepared to tell her my true feelings. But all of a sudden another guy came out of nowhere and took her away. My dreams are gone with her now... and this song is just what suits me now.
Same thing with me except this girl that I liked also liked me back as well. Sadly, since she lives in another state, I'll never be able to be with her and last I checked, she has a boyfriend now. I'm tempted everyday to text her and ask her if she still has feelings for me
@@jtyler1998 for me it was when I was in 6th grade, I liked a someone from my class and there were rumors that she liked me back but later I got rejected and even tho it's been so long and I've gotten over it a long time ago (I'm in 8th grade now), this song reminds me of what an idiot I was and still am
This song would be good to put in a movie about a break up. It would kinda be good with like a scene showing a small compilation of scenes with someone thinking about a break up.
I LISTENED IT WHEN I WAS 16 YEARS OLD, NOW I'M 30 YEARS OLD... IT SEEMS THAT TIME HAS NOT PASSED... THANKS SLIPKNOT, I CONTINUE TO SING IT WITH THE SAME FEELING
Most people will never really understand what this song is about. And thats kind of tragic. I think Corey knew that too, and knew it would add to the tragic undertone despite the felicity of a dream in the background.
this song makes me very nostalgic for a period, for a person, for a particular day: May 28, 2021. at the time, I was much more carefree than now, it was spring, it was cool and I was quite well, but not for everything: Dad had been working away from home for a few months and I missed him a lot. I was often sad and melancholy because I had a crush on a girl who seemed to be so different from who I knew, the more time passed the more different she became. it made me so confused and paranoid, I was always looking for ways to talk to her, but I often failed and every conversation was unsatisfactory. on that day, a months and two days had passed since we last saw each other, I missed her so much, so I decided to go to the place we had been together only to partially relive what I felt when she was sitting next to me . I know this thing seems to be really sad, but it turned out to be very comforting. after being there for a while I decided to go to my dad's house, as I had the keys with me, even though he wasn't there. I opened the door and started tidying up the kitchen, the living room, then the bedroom. then I sat in the garden while listening to this song. then when the verse "she isn't real ..." started, I felt a tremendous shiver that touched my heart and literally made me understand how I felt. those words still move me a lot, they will never stop doing it. now, an entire season has passed, a lot of things have changed, I probably don't even like that girl anymore, we talk little to each other, but I just feel like a friend. right now i'm sitting in the same place, i did exactly the same thing today, it's august 21, 2021 and i just listened to this song and it still speaks clearly to me, even though things have changed, it still reminds me of what i experienced that day and as i already have said, it makes me nostalgic, in a good way.
I was deeply madly in love with someone.. Thought I already moved on but I found this song.. Feeling extremely sad and realized I miss you so bad.. I can't move forward. You'll always have my heart. ♥️
I was married for 7 years to a woman I loved with all my heart. She was my heaven. Last July she dropped the bomb of wanting a divorce on me... I was devastated. I am still devastated, but after a bit of time she finally told me why.... She was lesbian... shes been lesbian since she was a kid, shes always liked girls, but only dated guys because she was forcing herself to be "normal" out of fear of her family... years of being raised by stritct catholics she forced herself to be what they wanted... I miss my wife so much... but in the end, while she did love and care for me... it wasn't the same way I loved and cared for her... the whole time, she carried massive guilt, and torment...because she just didnt know what to do.. Im trying my hardest to move on and not miss my wife...because while the woman she really is may be someone I will always love dearly and will always be friends with... The woman who was my wife...wasn't real... it wasn't really her... Just a front to be accepted by her family...
I feel this! Never existed... Just some sort of sick fucking game. The only consistent thing in my entire 32 years of existence on this miserable rock has been pain. It's the only thing that never leaves me...
I did a guitar and vocal cover of this song on my channel. My voice isn't even close to Corey's lmao but if you have some spare time feel free to check it out! ⬇️ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-00qCT2e9dlw.html
If you are listening to this after being sad or making something that is meant to be sad, this is the perfect song to go to. Rest in peace joey, one of the best drummer's that has ever romed the earth
This song makes me sad thinking of it in the perspective of a classmate from my old middle school who lost his sister to a drunk driver. Listening to this song makes me only imagine how he must feel reflecting on that situation during his highschool phase, knowing he'll never get to see his little sister ever again. 💔 I hope he's doing fine now, but I don't think a burden like that can go away R.I.P.

This hits me. I had this fantasy in my youth. A dream girl. Then at the end of it, graduating high school, I met her. She was everything to me. Everything I dreamed of even. We were together for 8 years and even engaged. But little did I know everything would change. Some set backs caused me to live back with my mom for a moment, but her house caught fire due to an extension cord drawing to much power from an outlet we didn't know was wired wrong. No one was harmed, but unfortunately my cat and my mom's dog as well as her cat died in the fire. At this time I was at my lowest and my EX wasn't there. She has been ignoring me the past two weeks, so I go to see her only to find that she has been cheating on me with 2 different guys, the one she is dating now. It was at this point I realized that the past 8 years she had used that "dream girl" thing I had to minipulate me so I'd see her as innocent. Needless to say we are no longer together and for the past few months I sing along to this song and cry, sometimes it makes the pain go away...
I had the same situation. It hurts so bad but in the same time i felt relieved. Came here because i fell in love to another girl after 5 years without a relationship
This song still heals me. I have fond memories of the days where you and I were together and I still remember the day you left this earth. Missing you always Gabriel. ❤ I love you always
I have a lot I went through last year alone One of the worst to start was probably losing my girlfriend of 4 years. After that everything rapidly started to just deteriorate. Almost like sand anything that seemed good when I'd approach would just slip through my fingers. Time and time and time again. Watched my family fall apart like crazy, I started sleeping and drinking like crazy just to get away from hurting. Not like it helped. I would still cry about everything before sleeping sometimes wake up and realize I was crying in my sleep. My life sucked and a lot of it is still sticking with me. I stay silent often the only time I'm not is often when I'm crying all alone. Just to avoid being a burden to anyone. This year I have dropped though a few burdens. My ex is not one yet. my family falling apart is also not one. But a few is still progress. And I'm happy with that alone. I wanted to give up so many times last year but here I am 2023 and still fighting. I'm not gonna lose. That's a promise to myself, God, and the beautiful people I still do have left in my life.
me and my fiancee or how ever the female way is spelled just broke up after 4.5 years and im trying to stay strong but it hurts me more than anything i never wanted to marry anyone but i love this women with every beat of my heart and since im home alone atm im jamming out to this as loud as it can go my heart is torn and im devestated
Lucky to get to the point where he accepts he can't let it build up inside anymore and does something about it. I'm still stuck on not being brave enough to not let it keep building up and desperately grabbing on to whatever I can to let it go on.
makes me tear up almost ever time i listen to this beautiful song. slipknot will always hold a special place in my heart. the greatest metal band of all time . prove me wrong
Every time I do things I don’t really feel anything . No motivation, no frustration, not being proud of accomplishment etc. But I can still feel music.
