Blind
Korn & Deftones & Slipknot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Are you ready?

This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide
You don't know the chances, what if I should die?
(A place inside my brain, another) Kind of pain
You don't know the chances, I'm so blind, blind, blind

Another place I find, to escape the pain inside
You don't know the chances, what if I should die?
(A place inside my brain, another) kind of pain
You don't know the chances, I'm so blind, blind, blind

Deeper and deeper and deeper as I journey to
Live a life that seems to be
A lost reality
That can never find a way to reach my inner self
Esteem is low, how deep can I go, in the ground that I lay?
If I don't find a way to, see through the gray that clouds my mind
This time I look to see what's between the lines




I can't see, I can't see, I'm goin' blind ...
I'm blind ...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Korn & Deftones & Slipknot's song Blind express the singer's internal struggles and feelings of isolation. The opening lines, "This place inside my mind, a place I like to hide / You don't know the chances, what if I should die?" suggest that the singer is dealing with suicidal thoughts. The repeated phrase "I'm so blind, blind, blind" further emphasizes the singer's sense of being trapped and unable to see a way out of their pain.


The second verse continues this theme of searching for an escape from the pain inside. The lyric "Deeper and deeper and deeper as I journey to / Live a life that seems to be / A lost reality" suggests that the singer feels disconnected from the world around them and is struggling to find their place in it. The line "Esteem is low, how deep can I go, in the ground that I lay?" speaks to the singer's feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness.


The final lines of the song, "I can't see, I can't see, I'm goin' blind / I'm blind..." seem to offer a bleak conclusion to the singer's struggle. However, the fact that the song exists at all and has connected with so many listeners over the years is a testament to the power of music to provide comfort and a sense of community in times of darkness.
