I really love this guy. One of the most pure musicians/artists/lyricists alive today. Real emotions and baring of the soul without giving a fuck about what others think.
This song means so much to me now. This past Tuesday I was out with a friend and we had left GameStop and I was listening to this song on my phone and it was plugged into the Aux port on the stereo in his car well sure enough to my mom called and said I need you to come to your papaws house he passed away this morning and we were there within 15 mins and today (Saturday) I will be laying him to rest at his home in Tennessee and this song will be playing in my head every minute of today and everytime I hear it I will thank of him R.I.P papaw 3/10/15
im sorry man i lost my dad when i was 6...............this song was in my head when i heard........song was also in my head when my pawpaw died when i was 12
I tried to sing this song yesterday, but at that part "Wish I'd died, Instead of lived, A zombie hides my face....." I began to cry very much, because those lyrics are very touchable at your soul, and you feel more compassion from this song inside your inner soul :(
I tried to sing this song on a rainy day outside of my grandparents' house at the village when I have sitting on a bench. I've felt so lonely and inferior in that moment, and at the half of the song, more tears flowed on my cheeks :(:( and I wondered myself: Who I am on this world ? :(, it's very very sad to consider yourself an inferior person
Personally I grew up with his music, from 99 to now and this so g specifically brings me back it a low point in life, maybe that is where he was as it was written. Never been that low since October 26 of last year and perhaps it just reminds him of a shitty time. Ex. He'd want the most living of himself in the past. Just my two cents. Rock on
I almost think that the crying part is jsut for shows..tha´ts why he´s starting to do that song and cries everytime :P..just a thought..but it could be Paul related or something like that maybe
Think about it this way...your life is shit. It's falling apart and all you have is your own music. Writing on the couch for nobody to hear but yourself, pouring your heart out. Now imagine a room full of 1000's of people singing every word. Try not to get choked up.
Ralphie Ralph If there's 1 thing i know it's that Corey Taylor wouldn't fake that stuff. He really seems like an amazing person. And what Shawn michael said + it reminds him of Paul Grey so yeah.
mohd firdaus 3 years late but. So his bandmate dies and he plays this song as tribute and gets emotional. And thats considered drama? Is it not normal to feel grief after a close friend's/relative's passing?
