Vermilion Part 2
Slipknot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad

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 is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad

But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me

I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this

But I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me, won't let this build up inside of me)

She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)




I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)

Line by Line Meaning

She seems dressed in all of me
She embodies everything about me


Stretched across my shame
She exposes my insecurities


All the torment and the pain
All my struggles and suffering


Leaked through and covered me
Overwhelmed me with her presence


I'd do anything to have her to myself
I desire her exclusively


Just to have her for myself
To possess her completely


Now I don't know what to do
I am lost and confused


When she makes me sad
Her sadness affects me deeply


She is everything to me
She is my everything


The unrequited dream
My desire that will never be fulfilled


A song that no one sings
A love that is unacknowledged


The unattainable
A goal that cannot be reached


She's a myth that I have to believe in
I cling to her even though she may not exist


All I need to make it real is one more reason
One more justification for my feelings to be validated


But I won't let this build up inside of me
I will not allow my emotions to consume me


I catch in my throat
I am choked up


Choke
My emotions overpower me


Torn into pieces
My feelings are shattered


I won't, no
I refuse to


I don't want to be this
I do not want to feel this way


She isn't real
The object of my desire is not tangible


I can't make her real
I cannot make her exist in reality

“LYRICS”
She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
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 is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this
But I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me, won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)

The lyrics. :)

She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad

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 is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don;t know what to do
When she makes me sad

But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me

I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this

But I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me, won't let this build up inside of me)

She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me

Vermilion Pt. 2

She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

I don't know what to do
I don;t know what to do
When she makes me sad
But I won't let this build up inside of me

I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this
But I won't let this build up inside of me

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside while still alive.

@themorningstar9704

How poetic

@princeuchiha1439

That the girl from the first vid?

@jay-jay133

Yup, I died many years ago. Still DEAD INSIDE!

Heroin kills the pain...for a while. But its all just the same cycle of shit...different date/time.
