Lyrics:
Hold your head up
You are not the victim
I’m not sure you will make the cut
I think you’ve lost the drive and will to win
Your resistance
Prophetic self-destruction
Creates the distance
Every time you get closer to someone
Mirror
There’s poison in my head and I don’t know what to do
The hole’s too deep for the drugs to get me through
Oh the city created my fears and took my mind
Oh Mirror
Give me back my time
Face your destiny
It was always only ever you and me
We can be anything we want to be
Make shit up and live it completely
I am alive, I am alive
Oh say it to yourself, say it to yourself, oh
Why do we need to function?
Why do we need to fit into this hell?
#IAMX #THEXID #FAULTLINES1
I HAVE RECENTLY QUESTIONED THE VALUE OF A VISUAL FOR A SONG DUE TO THE INSANE SPEED AND ATTENTION ISSUES OF THE MODERN WORLD.
I DECIDED IT'S STILL WORTH THE ENERGY.
I AM HUMBLED THAT, HERE AT IAMX HQ EVERYONE IS FULLY PRESENT, DEDICATED AND INVESTED IN SERVING THIS ART AND AUTHENTICALLY LIVING AN ALTERNATIVE LIFE IN MENTAL AND PHYSICAL FREEDOM.
THIS VIDEO IS A DOCUMENT OF THAT FREEDOM.
THE X ID IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A MAJOR PART OF MY PERSONALITY. IT IS MY BRUTAL, PROVOCATIVE GENDER BENDING SCREAMING INNER DEMON, MY MAGNETIC SWAGGERING HEDONISTIC EGO, THE DEEPEST DARKEST BEAUTIFUL ME WHICH I AM ABLE TO LIVE OUT THROUGH THIS MUSIC. ON STAGE, IN VIDEOS, THROUGH MY COMMUNITY.
OVER TIME I HAVE LEARNED TO EMBRACE, INHABIT AND WIELD THIS X ID. WITHOUT HESITATION OR GUILT.
AND I SEE IT AS MY DUTY TO ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO EMBODY AND EXPRESS WHO THEY ARE.
I'M NOT GOING TO LAYOUT A DRONEY CONCEPT OR LIE THERES A STORY FOR THIS VIDEO. IT IS JUST US, THIS GROWING X COLLECTIVE HAVING VISCERAL FUN IN THE BOUNDLESS BEAUTY OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SUPERBLOOM.
ENJOY THE EYE CANDY.

You are a gift to us! The Muses smile upon you Master!
It's absolutely stunning. Thank you for being and showing your true self. 🖤
The visuals make it all complete in my opinion, please don't change a thing. The style has always been awesome. Keep doing what you're doing!
I love that you all want to put together a visual feast to accompany the song. The span of art is simply so beautiful. It's also amazing to see the feelings played out and also seeing you guys feel free within the music. And yes, you definitely inspire and give me confidence to keep striving to be my true self. Love to all of you! ❤
This makes me happy. 🖤
After 10 years of distance, here i come back to the beautiful IAMX world. Thank you for being there, Chris. You show us what music really is. ❣️
You lost a lot of good music. He still making BOPs.
OH MY GOD FINALLY, I'M SURE THE WAIT IS GOING TO BE WORTH IT, THE VISUALS LOOK COOL AS HECK.
It was more than worth it.
Крис снова сошёл с ума))) Браво, маэстро!
идеальное описание
nice to see that chris is still making music. I've been listening to him for 12 years,starting with clip bernadette
Same, around 12 years aswell I think, or even longer.
Gets better each time I listen!!! I can’t believe I’ve listened to y’all since I was a teen (13 years!?!) and it’s still coming!! Amazing 🖤
The more I listen to this album the more I discover the beauty of each song. Thank you for making my heart happy every time the needle touches the vinyl groove 🖤 one love 🖤
New music from IAM{X} on the way!
I'm 32 and I'm a huge fan of all kinds of music but I'm feeling feelings I haven't had in years when I listen to your music. It's like I'm hearing music for the first time! You are a poet and a mastermind!! My God the way you express emotion in these songs my God again!!
i needed this wild, fever-dream/acid trip artistic expression in my life. it's been really dark, so this burst of color and freedom is so welcomed. thank you
Я не знаю, как он это делает, но его клипы хочется пересматривать, а музыку - переслушивать. Просто магия какая-то.
Видеоряд и цветокоррекция в клипе - это эстетическое сумасшествие.
THis is about to be the only thing I listen to for the rest of the month.
Finally!!!! Hello from Ukraine ) Your music is something unbelievable...
Есть время музыку слушать?
@@user-sr6he3jl6m авжеж є ;) чого б ні
черговий підарас. Голосу нема. Виглядає як нарік. Якщо б не труси в кліпі дивитися нічого.

Oh wow, I'm amazed to the core. I was touched by this track, the text is very big and makes sense to me. I will definitely listen to it very often and can't wait for the rest! I'm excited!
IAMX always pulls up clutch when my heart needs it the most ❤️
So addicted to this song
Absolutely beautiful and I bet it's going to be an insane banger in a live setting.
The anticipation of a new IAMX record is such an awesome feeling.
I'm so fucking ecstatic.
I saw them last night. It was INSANE. ❤️🔥
This gets deeper and more full of meaning each time I watch it with attention to the lyrics, and on a foundation of interpreting the wrestling women (no color) as the mirror and the poison he sees in his reflection. Sure, they are moving erotically, but they _look_ angry and scary and frightening. Then, the two (in color) hold him on a leash, underfoot, and holding him back. The scene where he gazes up at the one woman's vag with... what is that look on his face? A trepidation? Watching an accident just about to happen? Or is it an awe? This is where I came from. Is this a song about breaking free from narcissism and self-absorption? "Oh Mirror! Give me back my time! We can be anything we want to be. I AM ALIVE! I AM ALIVE!".... "Say it to yourself!" i.e. I am not what I see in the mirror, or don't have to be that.
Just when the world feels dark and miserable these beautiful freaks arrive in full glorious colour and shower us with sexy insanity.
Congratulations to you on this great new release! The "I'm alive!" part really hits with particular emotional force, and the voice just soars! I also definitely liked in the intro instrumental music.
IAMX is true art. x
I love how the makeup coordinates with the flowers it's absolute aesthetic beauty, can't wait to see the whole video😊😊😊😊❤
Как всегда невероятно ! Спасибо
Chris Porner version 2.0
Chris doesn't seem to age. Awesome song!
I'm so excited! I love IAMX music
🖤
Cant wait for this new album. Amazing stuff, Dark and Energetic along with etherial lyrics.
So effing good.
Pink is the new {X} ❤
OMG! After watching this and checking my heart again, I don't know if it's beating. I really loved this music video. 🥰 Kisses from Brazil.
Ele é demais. Super fã tbm
@@ricardoalvarez782 adoro conhecer brasileiros que curtem IAMX! ❤️ Têm um lugar no meu coração!
Chris is wonderful!! thank you from the bottom of my heart for always gladdening my soul. It is an honor for us to be here with you, to share all these fantastic and intriguing emotions and to be part of this fabulous cult. THE X ID is really very overwhelming, mysterious and makes me curious more and more, I can't wait to hear it, the title is perfect, I already know it will be fabulous and special like you. Unfortunately I don't know if I will be able to participate in the live broadcast because it will be two in the morning with us, but I hope in case I can still watch the video the next morning. i love you iamx!!❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Yes. Yes. Yes. You are in tune Chris. I hope to preform something with you one day. My soul is in your frequency.
I watched this one several times and it get's me through all the feels. Sometimes it's hilarious, sometimes frightening, instilling passion, sadness. I must say in the end it always hurts. It kind of questions if I'm in the right place. Which is a good thing, I suppose. My main thought during this time is "Why do we need to function? Why do we need to fit into this hell?" The answers are dark and nothing will soothe me. Thank you for being a shining light in this monotonous machine.
Woweeeeeeeeeeee! Just simply amazing and incredibly brilliant! Love it! 🖤🐈⬛🖤🦇🖤
I hope your hole goes away, it's been there for too long and it's super sad.
I LOVE THIS SONGGGG
Me and my Mom, we Love your Work!! ThankU so much!❤
So excited for Fault Lines tour
Черговий шедевр🔥🔥🔥🖤
Як приємно бачити в коментах брата українця)
Beautiful.
You can always count on Chris 🖤
Omg!!! Always surprising with creativity, I love it!!!!
I fell in love with the music of late Sneaker Pimps and early IAMX. Truly. I love the emotion and the dark synths. Just as with many creators who embrace the dark side of mental anguish and the gnarly, gritty analogue world of synths and "industrial" vibes, the music speaks to me but as soon as the visual aspect is introduced, I'm left wondering if I've somehow misconstrued the ethos. I'm probably better off avoiding the visual content from now on. It's not aimed at me. I love the music.
Bend that gender, Mr Corner. Stunning expression of joy and cathartic beauty. Adore.
You somehow never miss.
I sometimes get scared whenever it's time for you guys to release new music, in the chance that it might not up-to-par to your phenomenal past albums, but it's raw and amazingly constructed every. single. time. I absolutely cannot wait for what else in store :") ❣️
Wow.. just wow!!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
That is the sound. That is the way. That is why I’m hear iamx
X is the perfect drug 💕
Это так потрясающе и неожиданно видеоряд нереальный, и это сочетание цветов, фактур, текстур.. ах.. эстетика чем-то напомнила мне фильм "Аннигиляция" 🖤🤍💓🖤💓🤍💗 Недавно переслушивала старые альбомы IAMX , на которых я буквально росла, знатно кайфанула ну и прослезилась. И тут выходит новый невероятно крутой трек, который попал в настроение, не знаю, конечно о чём он дословно, но меня очень сильно тронул. Сейчас не самый лучший период моей жизни, и многие строки откликнулись так сказать, болью, борьбой и надеждой на светлое будущее.
IAMX never disappoints
This!
Hail these perverted pleasures
These sinful delights
The depraved moments
That see us through the nights.
Can't wait for the new album.
Damn, it was worth staying up until the middle of the night to see this! Beautiful and sooo hot. I love the voice, I love the music, I love the visuals. The whole video is a turn on for me. 🖤
These lyrics are hitting hard
Thank you 🙏🖤 {X}
Yessssss...🌌
It’s beautiful ❤
YESSSSSS!
Great visualization
I cannot wait to hear what else you have in store for us!!!
Can't wait to see you in Tampa next week! I'll be the one wearing black.
I can’t wait to see you all perform at El Corazon in June! Much love to you from the Pacific Northwest! ❤
Yeah! So good! The music and the video are amazing. Iamx never disappoint 👌🎶

I have been so excited for this video. I *love* all your videos, and I think they add a great deal to the already incredible music you create for us.
Bomb as always :)
Love it!!
Заворожило с первых нот и кадров!!! Респект огромный, ждем альбома
hope the 12th May 2023 is soon - cannot wait for the new album. i am sooo hungry for all titles. I have all and need all music from him. I do not know how he does it - he is my drug. any album always touches and brings me to another "world"... thxxx for all - and do not stop - and please do not stop to do vinyl and CD...digital is nice for being on the way (high res and high res player of course ^^) - but your physical albums are gifts for the life... and I know and own a lot of music....Chris is simply TOP of the TOP - THXXXXXXXXXXX
hi there - hope anyone can help me. i pre ordered the album 7th april - but the shop i have got forwarded - seems not to be correctly....i have open a case now.... re ordered now 13th may directly at imaxshop - hope this works - looks almost like the confirmation i have got from the other shop, digital album not working it says there...(was included)....i just want - no neeed - this album....hope i get it...."worst" case 2x .... bandcamp is sold out - wish i have done it there... what do i do wrong??? i am confused....thx for any help - my collection cannot miss this album...

Thank you very much 🌸❤️
Absolutely mesmerising
So excited to see this live
the colours.
A+ on the eye candy
Holy shit….🖤🔥
that chorus is sooo fucking good omg
STUNNING. THE COLORS...THE ORANGES TURNED TO PINKS TO PURPLES. THE PALLOR AND WET MUDDY MIXING WITH THE POWDERED GEISHA LIKE FUTURE POP GODS AND GODESSES. CHRISTOPHER...VISUALLY, YOUR BEST WORK TO DATE. that's my humble opinion. also...showcases how darkness and angst and the expression of it doesn't need to be black on black...GORGEOUS!
Ooooh Amazing 🔥💖
LOVE THE NEW SONG AND THE VIDEO :) - THE X ID - CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR IT LIVE IN KÖLN, GERMANY
Sublime, both visually and auditorily ❤🔥 The lyrics speak to my heart like they were written for me in this present moment - thank you so much for being and continuing to birth these fantastically authentic works of art! ❤❤❤
YOU, YOU ARE PURE ARTISTIC BRILLIANCE. Thankyou for feeding my soul with this delicious creation. IAMX cult forever
No way, I'm so excited! I love IAMX music, can't wait for the release!!!
This is exactly what I needed this week, thank you for your brilliance ❤️❤️❤️
1:03 I love how fascinated her looks at her kitty 😂😂
