My son and I always loved this song. My son passed away january 27, 2019. I cherish the fact I took him to his first slipknot concert before he passed away. It was so memorable that I was able to do that for him and, we had a lot of fun and, an amazing time together.
Every time down the years, someone's said to me that heavy metal vocalists can't sing, I direct them to this song without telling them who he is. And then when they say "ooh, he's got a really good voice", I'll put on a random Slipknot song, usually Before I Forget, and watch their faces when they realise it's the same person. And you know what? Nearly 10 years of that and it still hasn't gotten old.
The Maggot 555666 put on I Am Hated or Spit It Out. I do the same and those two songs always gave the biggest WTF reaction. It's great and as you said, never gets old.
Who said that. No one ever said that to me..and I've be a fuckn stone cold meatballs metal fun since Satan opened my ears at 1 and a half months old u fuckn shit talker. Bla bla bla. Fuck up
So many feel ashamed or embarrassed to show their emotions. Nobody wants to come off as weak. But it takes guts to be open about your feelings despite the stigma put on depression. Mental health care is a joke in America. We should all be open about our experiences so that others can feel they are not alone.
We all need to be here for each other ❤️much love to everybody in this comment section.i hope you find the happiness in your life your searching for💯🎊🎊🎊🎊❤️
Congratulations! Fight the good fight..my mom, dad, and 3 uncles died because of Heroin…they tried to fight but never was strong enough just kept getting back into that “wrong” crowd and I lost them all…do it for you and do it for your family! NOTHING MATTERS MORE.
Too all the people out there that suffer through the depression, you are loved and there is a reason you are here, you have a purpose, you are great and you are loved. Be strong you can beat it
@@cctomcat321 The message is that someone you'll never meet or know understands and has made even the slightest effort in your direction. Even the slightest effort is better than none.....
@@Vonstevenstien not really, it's really just an empty message. Especially a cookie cutter one such as that. The sentiment is nice but it isn't helping anyone. And I wouldn't call a vague comment an "effort". Really rather effortless.
I deal with serious depression and alcohol addiction, but I’m the sole provider to my 14yo son and my now disabled wife. I never let any of them see how fragile I am inside…..I can’t. Too many late nights alone on the couch crying to myself.
Hang in there sweetie! Your life is worth it, things WILL get better! Things may suck now but life eventually turns around! Please stay, one day you will be so glad that you did!❤❤❤😊
@@FLHerbologistLauraHuge ups to you for encouraging others! I hope you are happy and doing well. Continue to spread the love because you are helping others and building great karma for yourself! Blessings to you always ❤️

I remember when I came to this video years ago and was depressed. Left a comment saying I felt like killing myself. The amount of comments I got back telling me to hang in there and gave support was so refreshing, and for once I saw the internet as not this cold place, but a place where like-minded people helped one another. One of my favorite memories and happy to say I'm nowhere near where I was then. Thanks to the Stone Sour fans and this song 🙂
Yeah, there's no overstating how much of our experience in this life is based on our perception of what we experience. Glad to hear you're not in that kinda place no more, or at least at time of writing that. Music is such a godsend. Can you imagine how hard and lame a world without any would be? And if you can, why?! Lol. Take care bro.
Your one of millions just the same when you think of things in life think of the scale and balance your choice would make if everyone mirrored. It helped me.
I sat there with a pistol in my mouth. I thought for sure it would be my end. I sat there listening to this song on repeat just trying to build the courage up to pull the trigger. That’s been about 13 years now and im thankful that I didn’t. My life has always been hell but I was once so low that I felt that not even God cared. This songs means so much to me. It’s more than just some deep lyrics to good music.
That's a horrible spot to be in. Thankfully, I haven't found the strength either. The pain it would cause my children has always stopped me. It's a struggle. It's also why I don't drink, especially when the manic kicks in. I'm thankful that you didn't have the strength either. Most people don't realize. Stay strong. People do love you. Sometimes we just forget that fact. Peace and blessings to you and yours. JJ-South Alabama
@@johnnyjohnson1326 thank you for the kind words JJ. My kids are the main reason I never went through with it either. I struggled for years with those feelings and desires. I had a lot of pain and when I went to work it was very stressful and coming home to a narcissistic wife made my life a living hell. She had actually encouraged me on a few occasions to go ahead and kill myself. I hadn’t opened myself up to her to tell her that I was already wanting to do so and had tried. God has since blessed me with a wife that truly loves and appreciates me and she has helped me work through these feelings. It’s good to have support. I’ve also had some friends to show me love and support. It was hard at first to open up to others but I’m glad I did. I have had 3 friends take their own life in the past 10 years and I’ve watched as their families are left devastated by it. I pray that you have a support system and that you are able to have some relief as I have finally found.
Your a beautiful soul and I feel like I can feel your heart beats. You are so deep and so in touch with things that not everyone can understand. You are here on earth for a reason. Just know that and you will find happiness.
I'm 70 years old heard music all my life this song is genius I listen to it every night I suffer from depression this song gets me from day to day thank you so much for your words 🙏
I'm sorry you're feeling so down. Depression is hard. I've dealt with it plenty in the 44 years I've been on this earth. It's not the age, it's the mileage lol I hope you find things to help you smile and help you heal a tattered heart. {{{Hugs}}}
Haha yea man ... totally get it ... been around linger than half a Century .... bipolar is a Rush !!! .... been crazy all my life too .... load of fun ... aint cried in 20+ years
I see comments like this and I want to deal with any problems I get as soon as they start, cut it from the bud. I don't want to be 70 and depressed, I want to 70 and satisfied, love my life. Look back and see that yes things were hard but learned from them. My mom left when I was 8, and like I said, I'm 17, she suggested this song to me today. Today was the first real conversation I've had with her in almost 10 years. I'm giving her another chance bc I realize that her leaving was the root of my issues but my issues grew and evolved from her. I want to give her another chance to not only heal myself but I'll only ever have 1 biological mother, and I want to get to know her.
An addict I will always be, but in recovery I will stay. I felt connected to this song well before I discovered drugs, and this song was my recovery song. I haven't touched anything in over 8 years, and I am so proud of how far I have gotten. What makes me more proud is that I did it alone. I had friends who never knew about my struggles with drugs, hid it from my family, and suffered in silence. But the same way I suffered, I began to find my inner strength, my willingness to quit, and my willingness to learn and grow. 8 years ago, I never would have thought this life possible, 8 years later and I just wish I could hug my past self and let her know, life will still be challenging, but it looks a lot brighter. Through the years, I listened to this song when I was struggling, sang my heart out to it, pouring myself into every lyric just to break my urges to break my sobriety. Honestly I will thank Corey Taylor for helping me through my sobriety.
@@chuckkopp4699 I'm glad urr here. I've been sober 14 yrs now. U have to, HAVE TO dig deep and find that thing, trauma, etc that helped u to start wanting to be numb. 4 me it was abuse from a youth pastor. I kept it a secret, never told anyone ever and buried it. Until I dug it up, faced it, dealt wit it and moved on I was on a repeat path of sober, clean, happy, drunk, using, sober, clean, happy, drunk, etc. U can do this. It's fucking hard to face things that changed u in such a huge way. But our past does not and will not ever define who we are today. Unless u abuse kids, women, rape, u deserve to live. So live. Don't exist, LIVE. Semper Fi
Chuck I don't see it that way. Yes we had and will have issues with substances that alter mood, mind, but we don't consume those so why do we declare were this or that? If u used to be a janitor, now urr a welder, u don't meet ppl and say I'm a janitor. No urr a welder. We're not saying were perfect, or whatever. All of us suffered some trauma, usually abuse of sexual nature, that got us here wanting to be numb all the time. We didn't aspire to b drunks, or whatever. Cause and effect. I don't like when we who have these disorders say we're addicts, alcoholics, etc. I WAS a drunk, I WAS using alcohol to a unsafe level, I WAS not a good person, I WAS doing harm to myself to be numb to life cause of this effed up event, events, that happened to me. Now I'm free of it. Just cause u was a baby, toddler, teen, don't mean u are today. It's called growth. We grow from a stage where we need help and taken care of, to being able to help and take care of ourselves. I'm proud of you, me and all others who have. 1 minute, hour, day, week, month, year, decade, half century of living life without tge use of mood and mind altering substances. Semper Fi.
Was in a car accident 17 yrs ago. Two of my friends who were in the car died while i flat lined 2x to be brought back to life and under go 5 months of rehabilitation due to the injuries i had. When i hear "wish i died instead of lived, a zombie hides my face" resonates so much to me because i still feel that way to this day. Coreys' lyrics in all his songs are no joke. Respect.
My overactive bladder saved my life yesterday. I was about to ride to the store with my sister but I went back into my house to pee and someone smashed into her car and the engine was in the passenger seat but sis is fine. I feel you man.
The stories people have in these comments are so insanely touching, I pray that everyone who mask their depression finds true peace and love one day, remember you aren’t alone!
Really sucks I don't hide it from anyone, you'd think someone would reach out and try to be there, but in this day and age, nobody cares about us men, Got to be the tough one and act as though NOTHING can phase us...while I quietly suffer and die alone, because in reality NOBODY cares.
LYRICS: Wish I was too dead to cry My self-affliction fades Stones to throw at my creator Masochists to which I cater You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I was too dead to care If indeed I cared at all Never had a voice to protest So you fed me shit to digest I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season For this, I gave up trying One good turn deserves my dying You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face Shell forgotten with its memories Diaries left with cryptic entries And you don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep on slipping farther But once I hold on I'll never live down my deceit

When I battle manic depression, I listen to this. It somehow keeps me here. This song resounds all I've struggled with all my life. Finally a singer who can coherently describe absolute depression.
Jesse Brooks I understand hon. I have suffered with depression big time since a hysterectomy six years ago and am often finding myself wanting to be out of this life. I've come out of a horrible relationship and am getting my life on track at last. Never give up hon. There's always someone out there who cares. Xxxx
Don’t give up. Please don’t throw it in. I have never dealt with depression, but I am trying to learn more and more about it since I have dealt with it a lot around me(friends and family, and the ones we all come to love in the fame world). I have dealt with some bad circumstances in life, and the only thing that has kept me here and wanting to know more about life is music! Music truly is a gateway to helping us all feel a sense of love and a way to get though obstacles in our way
Have always loved this group more than slipknot. Don’t get me wrong slipknot is still one of my favorite groups and it did change later on in their career, but early on seemed like he put more of his emotions in stone sour. It wasn’t a band that was there just to be heavy and get your anger out.
According to lead singer Corey Taylor, this song is about "losing yourself and finding yourself all in one breath." It was written in a car on the way back home to the state of Iowa.
My youngster asked about him and his music. Her gma was supposed to give her an autographed poster but he said to only give it to her once she got ungrounded. Her gma never gave it to her bc she apparently gets off on being rude to her. Not that my kids the hugest fan but still... so, I told her what all I knew about his music instead.. And her aunt gave her some slipknot shirts. Come to think of it, I can see why she got into them. Her gma (the aunts mom) was mia out of her life for so long, the daughter didn't even bother talking to her for so many yrs. Anyways, if my kid ever sends these dudes/ those associated, some art work (which is pretty damn bad ass. Not js that bc im her mom. But for a 14 yr old, she fr has talent) they better appreciate it!!!... I sent her that text # 😅. She'll even make full on animated cartoons sometimes. Which involves a shit ton load of work. But _channeling my inner Sharon Osborne, grabbing grown ass men rockstars by their ears like they're still little dudes_ & u say ty when I tell u to say thanks, to the youngster, damn it! _doing the 2 finger ill b watching u thing_ 🤓, k thx. :/ im sure just the acknowledgement alone would have her thrilled. Her names shaneekwah btw. Its not really. Her name is an Eric Clapton song.
Its because its only the true fans of him know his full potential... And i am a diehard cory taylor fan but i must be honest and admit i didnt realize he was in any other band than slipknot until april 1 2015 when i found out a really good friend of mine and the person he went with got killed at the club when i heard about it i told my friend it wasnt a good april fools prank and he shouldnt joke about that stuff. Unfortunately it wasnt an april fools joke at all and i lost a friend and family member that day. Then the friend that told me about it and showed me "looking through the glass" by stone sour and i realized he was the same guy in the mask in slipknot and i have been a huge fan ever since. If u have read this long thank u for reading i just wanted to share why i love corey taylor so much
I agree 100%. When you get the chance, look up Aaron Lewis 'Someone'...I mean, any Aaron Lewis song, honestly. You feel the emotion in his voice and it seems so effortless.
Who says a heavy metal band doesn't have a masterful singer WHAT Corey Taylor I adore his voice amaaaaaazingly talented WOW! Chills yes and a beautiful feeling too Corey touches the core of my being when he sings...
Corey Taylor is such a fascinating man. He's so talented and multifaceted, a true musical genius that I've added on the top tier alongside a few others
It hurts me every time when all of the other band mates walk up and form a circle around Corey. In my eyes, this is a visual representation that even though you are never alone through depression. Your just too numb and broken to realize it. I wish the best of luck to anybody who is out there suffering. Always talk to somebody. And remember that you are never alone.
When I was a kid I saw these lyrics written on a bridge at a local lake: "I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season. For this I gave up trying, one good turn deserves my dying." For years I was haunted by this because I didn't know they were lyrics and thought I had found someone's suicide note. It only just occurred to me that these might be lyrics, so I googled them and ended up here. That's one big mystery of my life solved... I just hope whoever felt like quoting this song at the lake was doing all right when they wrote that.
This song is on the soundtrack to Spiderman 2, thats where I heard it - & check that soundtrack out. Some cracking songs.. Invisible Man especially. :) Peace.
I suffer from depression and anxiety. This is the mental and physical pain I experience. It is excruciating and exhausting yet we keep holding on 'til we bleed because we know that letting go isn't the solution.
That's right, don't ever let go!! You are being stronger than you know. Even if you don't have anyone that loves you. Do this for yourself. I've been diagnosed with ADD, and this gives me anxiety also. All my life I've felt like I was never enough, now I feel different. I live for my family and my friends, and my wife. Good luck, hang in their. Just seeing the problem is half the battle. NEVER GIVE UP!!
This song is a pinpoint description of the pain and torment in a person's brain with depression and anxiety as well as substance addiction. So if you ever want to know what the thinking is like of someone with depression, just listen to the words of this song. Stay strong my friends! Always light at the end of the tunnel even though sometimes we can't see that light. One of my all time favorite songs. This song helped me through the roughest time in my life. I've beaten alcoholism by myself with zero support what so ever. I had not one friend left by the time I quit.Ive repaired most relationships that we're destroyed by alcohol but some still haven't been repaired. I've almost got my depression beat as well. I knew once I got rid of alcohol that my depression would slowly get better and it has.i never had depression before I started drinking heavy. No pills, no therapy, no rehab, just good ol fashioned will power but most of the credit goes to God for showing me the way. If you don't believe in God it's only because you have never had a spiritual connection or don't understand how. One day something will happen and you will just know there is someone watching over you and guiding you. Not trying to bring religion in this because I respect everyones own beliefs but respect mine too. Been well over 18 months and still feel better and better everyday that passes without booze. Don't think for a second that alcohol is safe just because it's socially acceptable. That was my mistake and didn't realize that alcohol is one of the most destructive drugs on this planet when abused. It destroys relationships in the long run and will destroy your life. Nothing will matter except getting that next drink and feeding the demon/addiction. You don't need rehab and you don't need medication to quit. You need to get angry to fight addiction. You got to get mad at the addiction and you got to hate it even if you like it. Hate it for all the relationships it's destroyed, hate it for all the potential it took away, hate it for making you sick, hate it for ruining your life. Once you build up enough hate for alcohol, then boom destroy your addiction and quit for good, then take your life back that the addiction stole from you. If you slip up, oh well that's part of the process, just start over but never give up ever. Took me six times over 2 years to finally quit for good. I never thought I could quit. If I can do it, everyone can do it! Eventually you won't ever want to touch it again. Alcohol will kill you just as easy as any other hard drug. Don't be a fool if your abusing alcohol or alcohol is abusing you. If your a responsible drinker, more power to you but wasn't that way for me. It takes months if not years to fully beat alcohol 100%. It takes a long time for your brain to repair the damage alcohol causes. It's easy after first 4 months. Alcohol will turn people into something their not or a different person. It brought out the worse in me. Don't know why I felt obligated to write this but if it helps one person it was worth it. Stay strong my friends! I'm sure I wasn't the only alcoholic that listened to this song when drinking. Now it's a memory of everything ive accomplished since quitting. If you can't do it for yourself, do it for your family and friends!
julious davis More than worth it. I got Bi-Polar Depression alongside a shopping list of other fucked up shit (I'm only 19 mind you so despite my experiences, a lot of which I'd rather forget, I'm sure there's more to come) and it's cool reading other people's stories. I can't share my story because I'm still fighting and it isn't over yet. I'm winning though and I always appreciate these stories because if someone needs to know that there's hope, I can tell them about someone who's overcome it all, that I'm fighting to do the same and the person in need can do it too. I am extremely grateful for your addition of doing if for your loved ones if you can't for yourself because a lot of people tell their stories but leave out that very important detail. The stories may help but if the person in need doesn't realize they're not alone and there's people who care about them, it could end up being told in vain. Thank you for adding that because that bit has such a harder impact in times like these than people realize. They get so caught up in the story they forget to remind the person who or what makes it all worth it. You weren't obligated to write this, but you're a good man with good intentions and you had the courage to act on that feeling. On behalf of the people you have and will help with this, I want to thank you. Take care my friend and keep fighting the good fight!
Goten Ittetsu Thanks my man for your kind words. Keep fighting bro! Never give up! I honestly thought when I was a heavy drinker that was my life for the rest of my life. I know now it was the alcohol talking. Unfortunately I had to hit rock bottom to see what a piece of shit I had become. I've done so many great things since quitting. I'm just so grateful to be able to quit and so optimistic about life in general. Sure things can still be hard from time to time but learning how to handle problems without substance abuse is the key. Eventually it becomes easy and in general I'm just a way happier person since quitting. I felt really alone when I was a alcoholic and I pretty much was. No one wants to be with someone who is destroying their life. I'm very fortunate that most of my relationships we're fixed. I know it sounds corny but I'm just high on life now a days. There is just so much I missed out on for so many years. I look forward to the future now but when I drank I dreaded the next day always. My body is so much healthier now! It's never too late to quit. The thing that most people don't understand is it takes your body a lot of time to heal itself after a addiction but it will get better and better everyday that passes. Well good luck and don't ever be afraid to reach out if you need someone to talk to.
DemonMutt007 yeah there is buddy! Even if you can't see it, trust me it's there. Positive thinking and a good attitude can go a long way. Talking heals buddy, don't hold in the pain anymore. Let it all out and anytime your ready for a fresh brand new start, it is waiting. Good luck bud! I do know how you feel because wasn't all too long ago I had same attitude. I was drinking heavy, pretty much a walking zombie, not a friend left to talk to. I was drinking fifth to half gallon of whiskey a night. Argue with anyone willing to argue back. When I put down the booze for good, that's when my life started doing good again. It will get better. Time heals pain! Trust me on that one buddy! Well good luck, wish you the best and don't be afraid to reach out if you need someone to talk to. I'm not a big pharmacuetical guy but everyone is different. talk therapy works really good. Most are good at organizing our crazy thoughts and understanding the deeper meaning behind them. If you go that route, find someone your comfortable with. Well good luck, it will get easier.
julious davis I wish I could say I believe you but I've had one hell of a life and I'm only 26 the past 4 it's just gotten worse and I'm also suffering from a addiction that I'v kept a secret from everyone no on know how fucked my heads right now I wanna die but at the same time I wanna live it's such a struggle each day
I feel this song is about depression and self loathing. How he's slipping further and further into depression and nothing can stop it except death itself. Personally, when I get depressed I always imagine myself thirty or fifty years from now. Old and too tired to care. Knocking on the door of my next home. This thought alone puts me in a depressed state. this song speaks to me on so many levels. Depression is one hell of a disease and is key for great songwriting.
Amen. I always had an intense relationship with the music written by the tortured souls of rock, metal, blues and even hip hop...... It seemed I always felt a pull towards the songs written by those suffering addictions, depression , suicidal thoughts , self destruction etc etc etc. dunno why I'm responding to you're comment beyond the "amen" , guess I just liked what you said ;-)
Oh please continue on. I always enjoy hearing peoples thoughts and emotions. Don't explain yourself darling. Always display how you feel or else it'll eat you from inside out. Thank you for the personal relations. Empathy is the greatest gift given for knowledge but at the price of inner peace.
@@TroyTravels922 To infer that anyone is *"The"* best, is to be painfully subjective. Everyone has different feelings and emotional responses from what they've experienced, and personal tastes in music.
I always feel like this song is for guys whose dads were bad or weren't around. "I'll keep slipping farther" also sounds like "I'll keep slipping father" and it makes me cry for you who go through that 🤍
I watched my father pass away earlier this month. This song is without a doubt how i feel. May all of us troubled soul's find peace before it's too late.
'Snuff', 'Through Glass' and 'Bother'. I have been listening to these 3 tracks everyday for about 3 months now and still can't get over it. Corey Taylor you're a gem.

My best friend Mike was a huge fan of this song. He used to play it often and sing to it because he was also a singer. He suffered from being Bi-polar manic depressant type two with schizophrenia. Ultimately he lost his battle within his own mind and took his life on his girlfriends grave. This song always has and always will remind me of him.
MY HEART GOS OUT TO YOU HONEY,,,, HOLD ONTO ALL THE JOY ALL THE LOVE,, THIS LIFE IS ALL ABOUT THE LOVE... I KNOW THAT SOUNDS CORNEY, HECK MADE MYSELF LAUGH A LIL.,, LOVE IS A GIFT,, PAIN IS A CURSE,,, ...be at peace sweetie..
My brother died a week ago We were pretty much inseparable We were the same flesh We were the same blood We were brothers Till i i breath my last breath,our memories are forever.

I don't think truly gifted musicians and bands realize the enourmous power they posess to mold and shape the world. Their messages and the feelings they invoke in people are like electricity. ♡
My son just died in car accident January 7th 2022 and stone sour and slip knot are his absolute favorite bands he worships Corey Taylor and I'm gonna have some of his songs played at his service this Saturday 15 I can't deal with the pain of losing him he would have been 32 this February and he always said he never wanted to bother anyone I said you could never bother me you are my son I love you with everything in me rest easy son I love you so much I can't wait to be with you again❤❤❤❤❤😭😭😭😭😭😭
This song proves how tragic some times people go through, suffering from depression and anxiety brings us down in the feels and it makes us sad I feel for all that suffer from depression and anxiety, you’re not alone ❤️
This is pretty much how I feel since my Mom died of cancer. I play it on guitar now and then. So damn sad, yet so powerful at the same time. I love you Mom 💜
I know it's been a year since you posted this . I lost my mom in 2016 also due to cancer . I won't say it gets easier . The first year was the hardest. But you do get better at coping with such a heavy loss. You'll be okay .
I was often called quiet. Little did I or anyone know that I was holding on to so much hate and resentment from being emotionally abused as a kid. My voice often didn’t feel valuable to me. However, at 38 I hit rock bottom and went to therapy. I found God and I’m going on my 3rd year of college trying to rebuild a life I never knew existed. If I can do it, so can anyone else! I believe in you! The words from this song that hit me every time: “never had a voice to protest, so you fed me sh*t to digest!” Your not alone my friends!
To both of you, I am proud of you for getting out of that! Many people in this world feel as though they are trapped in such relationships and situations. The bravery you two showed by breaking out of such a dark place is inspiring to me, and most likely, many others. Peace and love ❤
😢 the pain dulls but I don't think it ever stops even when you find a little bit of happiness it's still there in the pit of your stomach and it's changed you no matter how much you say it hasn't you will never let yourself get hurt that way again, I spent 20+ years protecting myself and when I finally was convinced that she was never going to hurt me I let go and I'm sure I shouldn't have now, still in love with someone who has completely cut me out of her life, I keep telling myself I should have never let go and kept myself guarded so that I wouldn't have to feel like this but I know that I can love someone like that again, myself I never understood what people were talking about because I just never cared that much about me, I was more concerned about making everyone around me happy only to find myself heartbroken and lonely looking for someone who was like myself who would give me back what I was giving them, now I know that the only person who is capable is me, I haven't figured out how yet but I know that drugs and alchohol only make it easier to live without that pain for a short period of time and then you just have more pain and more problems to add to your hollowness, I can't imagine what it must've been like to have loving supportive people in my life I think I would be happier but I know I would be weaker because you only gain strength through strif. Good luck making peace with your demons I would say turn to God if I could forgive him myself but maybe one day I will understand why I have had to go through so much pain
Wish I was too dead to cry My self-affliction fades Stones to throw at my creator Masochists to which I cater You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I was too dead to care If indeed I cared at all Never had a voice to protest So you fed me shit to digest I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season For this, I gave up trying One good turn deserves my dying You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face Shell forgotten with its memories Diaries left with cryptic entries And you don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep on slipping farther But once I hold on I'll never live down my deceit
I remember listening to this song all the time when I was at my lowest... makes me reminisce the feelings I had but now that I overcame and picked myself up from the hole I was in, remembering these feelings is kind of empowering... How I overcame such crippling sadness (both figuratively and literally)
Just the right amount of depression and loss in a song. Corey's soul is like no other. Really shows his vocal range and commitment to what he writes about. 3:18 Is my favorite part in this Masterpiece.
My dad loved this song, he passed away last week. I should be Lucky for the time I got he was 71, but it's never enough. I'm 35 now and it's going to be a long time until I can see him again. Miss you dad.
I know that a lot of us can FEEL this song. For many years I felt like it would be my last breath. For so many years I "wish I died instead of live" but I'm still here. And I don't want loose this fight. Anymore
As someone with bipolar depression, I feel like this song is talking about what it is like to be depressed, particularly the apathy and lifelessness described in the song.
I happen to have both mania and depression, hence the meaning bipolar, meaning two poles or spectrums. I didn't order it, I've been diagnosed with it since I was a teen and am on meds for it, so I'm not making it up. I just identified a lot with this song since it fits my ever-changing mental stability.
in the same boat. my father is the biggest piece of shit to walk the earth. have not seen him in 11 yrs..but i miss so much.he dont know his only grandson.my wife says to reach out to him.i tried.but only cried when i heard his voice.i need to forgive him and make piece..time is short.so make that call and say { love you dad} before the sand runs out.
Corey's lyrics bring out what many of us bury deep inside. Listening does help us deal with our inner demons. When you face your past and move away from painful memories, you realize your strength to live. Self-preservation can be a struggle throughout our lives.
well Im on this ptsd, heavey depression, adhd, band wagon, and its been awhile since I listened to this song. and as I say " its comforting to see similar struggles, and appreciations" it reminds me of meeting my new room mate the other day, they say " I suffer from sever depression and anxiety" I was like " thats GREAT! me too ...ohh" lmao not that its great but its nice to have some one around that can understand the struggles we have , when it seems like anyone without an emotional or mental illness, just cant grasp the way we live or the suffering we endure, not to say we have it worst then the rest of the world, but as any of you with a struggle know, its not easy. good luck to one and all, keep your heads up. even a few small steps can be a leap ^^ one day at time
Damien Wentzell Thank you man. You said some pretty strong words. That really resonate with what I've been dealing with for a long time. Thank you. Thank you
Jake Bush I have adhd and bipolar brother I’m 28 now but my early years were a struggle it was a hurdle I thought I could never get over thought about suicide many times but I learned to live with it adapt and appreciate the small things in life
This song was the lifeline between myself and suicide at the age of 16. Abuse survivor. Almost cut my own arm off in self mutilation accident at this time, lost 2 1-2 liters of blood in under 3 min. Over 9 hours of surgery and 2 blood transfusions I came out ok. Abuser was heard saying maybe next time she should try for her throat. This song was a sort of anthem before the arm injury. Still listen to it today when I’m feeling the same things. Music is so powerful. It has such an amazing ability to ground us, even when we feel there is no reason to keep going. This song saved me many of times.
Jamie Dahlin I didn’t. I almost did. Self mutilation. Brand new top of the line kitchen knife meant for carving chicken bones. Slammed it on my arm, right below where it bends. Sliced into bone. Demolished my arm in a spit second and severed all my tendons, nerves, and major arteries. Blood sprayed well over 6 feet in the air. My entire outfit was soaked completely in blood in mere seconds. Went into shock.
I’m so very sorry!! I too lost my son, I also took him to his first concert! And 2nd!! God girl, I feel your pain!! Every second, of Every day!! They are with us, but as you feel I’m sure, we WANT THEM HERE PHYSICALLY!!! God bless you! And OUR BOYS!! Fly high our beautiful sons!
This song was played at one of my close friends funeral March 7th of 2011. Can't listen to it without crying of tearing up a bit anymore. It's a really good touching song though, I won't stop listening to it after the sad event that had occurred.
This tune is so dark and beautiful....I'm grateful that I'm not in this place anymore....spent so many years in intense pain and depression....almost anything is better than feeling so utterly hopeless and despondent....
My brother wrecked his truck yesterday, is in pretty bad shape. Broke his neck, his back, one of his arms and has severe head trauma. Dr said he may not make it. I've been listening to this song off and on all day to get me through what I'm feeling. Anyone that reads this, please say a prayer for my brother.
9 years clean and when the urge comes creeping I will put this song on and take deep breaths. When I was detoxing I played this on repeat and it still helps to this day. ❤❤
Stay clean. Sobriety is worth it. Never forget that the whole "one last time" shit always ends bad, usually with the user dead on the floor somewhere, like in a friends bathroom or something worse.
So I havent heard this song in probably well over a decade and a guy last night at work was playing it and I forgot this era of insane good alternative music. The song has to be one of the greatest ever...if not one of the most underestimated songs ever. Corey Taylor is an absurd awesome talent.
This has always been one of my favorite songs... But it takes on a whole new level of the feels after my husband took his own life... Some music that was my favorite now just puts me in my feelings so hard.
I'm sorry for your loss 😔 I've been thinking about it a lot more lately, everything just seems to keep getting harder and lonelier and I don't think it's going to get any better probably ever but definitely not soon. Even my therapist ghosted me 😔 I really don't see the point anymore
Thank you and I'm sorry. I know life gets hard, sounds like a crap therapist. Don't give up and find a new one..just because one sucks doesn't mean they all do.

My son and I always loved this song. My son passed away january 27, 2019. I cherish the fact I took him to his first slipknot concert before he passed away. It was so memorable that I was able to do that for him and, we had a lot of fun and, an amazing time together.
dawn witt :-(
So so sorry for your loss.. 😢 Glad he had an amazing experience with his mum x
I came here to listen to this song... I lost one of my twin babies last night....
GOD BLESS YOU... YOUR SON WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU
Sorry dawn, that’s rough. My condolences.
Slipknot xix NU METÁL
Every time down the years, someone's said to me that heavy metal vocalists can't sing, I direct them to this song without telling them who he is. And then when they say "ooh, he's got a really good voice", I'll put on a random Slipknot song, usually Before I Forget, and watch their faces when they realise it's the same person. And you know what? Nearly 10 years of that and it still hasn't gotten old.
put on people=shit or the negative one or skin ticket and then watch their reaction XD
The Maggot 555666 put on I Am Hated or Spit It Out. I do the same and those two songs always gave the biggest WTF reaction. It's great and as you said, never gets old.
Who said that. No one ever said that to me..and I've be a fuckn stone cold meatballs metal fun since Satan opened my ears at 1 and a half months old u fuckn shit talker. Bla bla bla. Fuck up
@@markmoth7852 lmfao you know nothing about Satan. All of you are conformists. Open your mind. Everything is reversed.
Done the same with Snuff tbf. The look when you tell them the band is priceless!
"You don't need to bother, I don't need to be"
The amount of resignation in these few words sends shivers down my spine.
It's so amazing how many of us deal with depression and never say anything about it and keep it inside
So many feel ashamed or embarrassed to show their emotions. Nobody wants to come off as weak. But it takes guts to be open about your feelings despite the stigma put on depression. Mental health care is a joke in America. We should all be open about our experiences so that others can feel they are not alone.
Thats cause we say it straight foward and no 1 really listen to us
This is largely men. We relate to societal pressure worst.
We all need to be here for each other ❤️much love to everybody in this comment section.i hope you find the happiness in your life your searching for💯🎊🎊🎊🎊❤️
Did you just assume my mental illness?
I struggled with addiction and depression for years. Now I’m 8 years clean and I sometimes listen to this. And just take it one day at a time!!! 🙏
Well done you mate. Keep on keeping on
One small step at a time.
VERY not bad!
Congratulations! Fight the good fight..my mom, dad, and 3 uncles died because of Heroin…they tried to fight but never was strong enough just kept getting back into that “wrong” crowd and I lost them all…do it for you and do it for your family! NOTHING MATTERS MORE.
@@MkScott-mf8pj thank you!!!! I’m sry for your losses. 🙏
You're not alone. Keep fighting. You'll be free real soon.
Too all the people out there that suffer through the depression, you are loved and there is a reason you are here, you have a purpose, you are great and you are loved. Be strong you can beat it
I really don't like these comments. Anyone who'd believe you doesn't need to.

@@cctomcat321 The message is that someone you'll never meet or know understands and has made even the slightest effort in your direction. Even the slightest effort is better than none.....
@@Vonstevenstien not really, it's really just an empty message. Especially a cookie cutter one such as that. The sentiment is nice but it isn't helping anyone. And I wouldn't call a vague comment an "effort". Really rather effortless.

I deal with serious depression and alcohol addiction, but I’m the sole provider to my 14yo son and my now disabled wife. I never let any of them see how fragile I am inside…..I can’t. Too many late nights alone on the couch crying to myself.
Hang in there sweetie! Your life is worth it, things WILL get better! Things may suck now but life eventually turns around! Please stay, one day you will be so glad that you did!❤❤❤😊

You be strong my brother .
I remember when I came to this video years ago and was depressed. Left a comment saying I felt like killing myself.
The amount of comments I got back telling me to hang in there and gave support was so refreshing, and for once I saw the internet as not this cold place, but a place where like-minded people helped one another. One of my favorite memories and happy to say I'm nowhere near where I was then. Thanks to the Stone Sour fans and this song 🙂
Yeah, there's no overstating how much of our experience in this life is based on our perception of what we experience. Glad to hear you're not in that kinda place no more, or at least at time of writing that. Music is such a godsend. Can you imagine how hard and lame a world without any would be? And if you can, why?! Lol. Take care bro.
And I'm sure the world is in a better place with you in it.
Your one of millions just the same when you think of things in life think of the scale and balance your choice would make if everyone mirrored. It helped me.
Good to hear that brother
I am depressed cause I am too lazy to practice my aqua fender telecaster. But I shall ! Peace
I sat there with a pistol in my mouth. I thought for sure it would be my end. I sat there listening to this song on repeat just trying to build the courage up to pull the trigger. That’s been about 13 years now and im thankful that I didn’t. My life has always been hell but I was once so low that I felt that not even God cared. This songs means so much to me. It’s more than just some deep lyrics to good music.
It's a scary place to be. Let life do it, make life be the decision 💯
That's a horrible spot to be in.
Thankfully, I haven't found the strength either. The pain it would cause my children has always stopped me.
It's a struggle. It's also why I don't drink, especially when the manic kicks in.
I'm thankful that you didn't have the strength either. Most people don't realize.
Stay strong. People do love you. Sometimes we just forget that fact.
Peace and blessings to you and yours.
JJ-South Alabama
@@johnnyjohnson1326 thank you for the kind words JJ. My kids are the main reason I never went through with it either. I struggled for years with those feelings and desires. I had a lot of pain and when I went to work it was very stressful and coming home to a narcissistic wife made my life a living hell. She had actually encouraged me on a few occasions to go ahead and kill myself. I hadn’t opened myself up to her to tell her that I was already wanting to do so and had tried. God has since blessed me with a wife that truly loves and appreciates me and she has helped me work through these feelings. It’s good to have support. I’ve also had some friends to show me love and support. It was hard at first to open up to others but I’m glad I did. I have had 3 friends take their own life in the past 10 years and I’ve watched as their families are left devastated by it. I pray that you have a support system and that you are able to have some relief as I have finally found.
Your a beautiful soul and I feel like I can feel your heart beats. You are so deep and so in touch with things that not everyone can understand. You are here on earth for a reason. Just know that and you will find happiness.
@@tshirt2009 My kiddo, and family are the reason I've abstained, despite the terrible pain late at night. Hold on folks for those that need you.
I'm 70 years old heard music all my life this song is genius I listen to it every night I suffer from depression this song gets me from day to day thank you so much for your words 🙏
I'm sorry you're feeling so down. Depression is hard. I've dealt with it plenty in the 44 years I've been on this earth. It's not the age, it's the mileage lol
I hope you find things to help you smile and help you heal a tattered heart.

Hugs from Texas..

Haha yea man ... totally get it ... been around linger than half a Century .... bipolar is a Rush !!! .... been crazy all my life too .... load of fun ... aint cried in 20+ years
I see comments like this and I want to deal with any problems I get as soon as they start, cut it from the bud. I don't want to be 70 and depressed, I want to 70 and satisfied, love my life. Look back and see that yes things were hard but learned from them. My mom left when I was 8, and like I said, I'm 17, she suggested this song to me today. Today was the first real conversation I've had with her in almost 10 years. I'm giving her another chance bc I realize that her leaving was the root of my issues but my issues grew and evolved from her. I want to give her another chance to not only heal myself but I'll only ever have 1 biological mother, and I want to get to know her.
An addict I will always be, but in recovery I will stay. I felt connected to this song well before I discovered drugs, and this song was my recovery song. I haven't touched anything in over 8 years, and I am so proud of how far I have gotten. What makes me more proud is that I did it alone. I had friends who never knew about my struggles with drugs, hid it from my family, and suffered in silence. But the same way I suffered, I began to find my inner strength, my willingness to quit, and my willingness to learn and grow. 8 years ago, I never would have thought this life possible, 8 years later and I just wish I could hug my past self and let her know, life will still be challenging, but it looks a lot brighter. Through the years, I listened to this song when I was struggling, sang my heart out to it, pouring myself into every lyric just to break my urges to break my sobriety. Honestly I will thank Corey Taylor for helping me through my sobriety.
Stay strong, you can do it!
Gonna make this my recovery song too. I died of an overdose on Monday
@@chuckkopp4699you don't need to hit rock bottom to quit. I am in recovery, I wish you well.
@@chuckkopp4699 I'm glad urr here. I've been sober 14 yrs now. U have to, HAVE TO dig deep and find that thing, trauma, etc that helped u to start wanting to be numb. 4 me it was abuse from a youth pastor. I kept it a secret, never told anyone ever and buried it. Until I dug it up, faced it, dealt wit it and moved on I was on a repeat path of sober, clean, happy, drunk, using, sober, clean, happy, drunk, etc. U can do this. It's fucking hard to face things that changed u in such a huge way. But our past does not and will not ever define who we are today. Unless u abuse kids, women, rape, u deserve to live. So live. Don't exist, LIVE. Semper Fi
Chuck I don't see it that way. Yes we had and will have issues with substances that alter mood, mind, but we don't consume those so why do we declare were this or that? If u used to be a janitor, now urr a welder, u don't meet ppl and say I'm a janitor. No urr a welder. We're not saying were perfect, or whatever. All of us suffered some trauma, usually abuse of sexual nature, that got us here wanting to be numb all the time. We didn't aspire to b drunks, or whatever. Cause and effect. I don't like when we who have these disorders say we're addicts, alcoholics, etc. I WAS a drunk, I WAS using alcohol to a unsafe level, I WAS not a good person, I WAS doing harm to myself to be numb to life cause of this effed up event, events, that happened to me. Now I'm free of it. Just cause u was a baby, toddler, teen, don't mean u are today. It's called growth. We grow from a stage where we need help and taken care of, to being able to help and take care of ourselves. I'm proud of you, me and all others who have. 1 minute, hour, day, week, month, year, decade, half century of living life without tge use of mood and mind altering substances. Semper Fi.
Was in a car accident 17 yrs ago. Two of my friends who were in the car died while i flat lined 2x to be brought back to life and under go 5 months of rehabilitation due to the injuries i had.
When i hear "wish i died instead of lived, a zombie hides my face" resonates so much to me because i still feel that way to this day. Coreys' lyrics in all his songs are no joke. Respect.
Respect dude respect! I'm sorry for you I was 3 in a car accident and my cousin saved my life thank god
My overactive bladder saved my life yesterday. I was about to ride to the store with my sister but I went back into my house to pee and someone smashed into her car and the engine was in the passenger seat but sis is fine. I feel you man.
Classical survivor‘s guilt, but you don’t have to be stuck there, it’s possible to work it out
They would want you to live bro.
Stone Sour's best song. Possibly one of the best songs ever written imo. 20 some years later and I can still say that.
DEFINITELY!
He is a talented singer. Not sure he is top 20 from 1985-2000. I really like the song.
Amen, man.
I like their heavier songs personally. However this is a legendary and beautiful piece.
@LordOfTheWombs the fact that this is the same singer as Slipknot just shows his talent ❤❤
The stories people have in these comments are so insanely touching, I pray that everyone who mask their depression finds true peace and love one day, remember you aren’t alone!
Could TT come us when I first here this song naked donce
Really sucks I don't hide it from anyone, you'd think someone would reach out and try to be there, but in this day and age, nobody cares about us men, Got to be the tough one and act as though NOTHING can phase us...while I quietly suffer and die alone, because in reality NOBODY cares.
I just lost my daughter 3 hours after she was born. In my arms....oh how the third verse is how I feel :'( thank you corey
Rob Lee I’m so sorry man. I wish I could do something to help. You can feel free to talk to me whenever, wherever.
Much love to you.
Sorry brother
I am sorry for your loss have faith and be strong
God Bless you and your family
So sorry man, condolences. God bless you and yours for what it's worth.
LYRICS:
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten with its memories
Diaries left with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep on slipping farther
But once I hold on
I'll never live down my deceit

When I battle manic depression, I listen to this. It somehow keeps me here. This song resounds all I've struggled with all my life. Finally a singer who can coherently describe absolute depression.
Jesse Brooks I understand hon. I have suffered with depression big time since a hysterectomy six years ago and am often finding myself wanting to be out of this life. I've come out of a horrible relationship and am getting my life on track at last. Never give up hon. There's always someone out there who cares. Xxxx
Don’t give up. Please don’t throw it in. I have never dealt with depression, but I am trying to learn more and more about it since I have dealt with it a lot around me(friends and family, and the ones we all come to love in the fame world). I have dealt with some bad circumstances in life, and the only thing that has kept me here and wanting to know more about life is music! Music truly is a gateway to helping us all feel a sense of love and a way to get though obstacles in our way
I now understand why Chester Bennington loved this band. Deep lyrics that make sense to me and this band is severely underrated. 😮
Have always loved this group more than slipknot. Don’t get me wrong slipknot is still one of my favorite groups and it did change later on in their career, but early on seemed like he put more of his emotions in stone sour. It wasn’t a band that was there just to be heavy and get your anger out.
This song goes to the core!!
correct.
According to lead singer Corey Taylor, this song is about "losing yourself and finding yourself all in one breath." It was written in a car on the way back home to the state of Iowa.
No wonder I've always resonated with it.
My youngster asked about him and his music. Her gma was supposed to give her an autographed poster but he said to only give it to her once she got ungrounded. Her gma never gave it to her bc she apparently gets off on being rude to her. Not that my kids the hugest fan but still... so, I told her what all I knew about his music instead.. And her aunt gave her some slipknot shirts. Come to think of it, I can see why she got into them. Her gma (the aunts mom) was mia out of her life for so long, the daughter didn't even bother talking to her for so many yrs. Anyways, if my kid ever sends these dudes/ those associated, some art work (which is pretty damn bad ass. Not js that bc im her mom. But for a 14 yr old, she fr has talent) they better appreciate it!!!... I sent her that text # 😅. She'll even make full on animated cartoons sometimes. Which involves a shit ton load of work. But _channeling my inner Sharon Osborne, grabbing grown ass men rockstars by their ears like they're still little dudes_ & u say ty when I tell u to say thanks, to the youngster, damn it! _doing the 2 finger ill b watching u thing_ 🤓, k thx. :/ im sure just the acknowledgement alone would have her thrilled. Her names shaneekwah btw. Its not really. Her name is an Eric Clapton song.

Its because its only the true fans of him know his full potential... And i am a diehard cory taylor fan but i must be honest and admit i didnt realize he was in any other band than slipknot until april 1 2015 when i found out a really good friend of mine and the person he went with got killed at the club when i heard about it i told my friend it wasnt a good april fools prank and he shouldnt joke about that stuff. Unfortunately it wasnt an april fools joke at all and i lost a friend and family member that day. Then the friend that told me about it and showed me "looking through the glass" by stone sour and i realized he was the same guy in the mask in slipknot and i have been a huge fan ever since. If u have read this long thank u for reading i just wanted to share why i love corey taylor so much
But once I hold on
I won't let go 'til it bleeds...

Corey is simply the man. Love him and his music and I'm 57.😊
Don't worry, he's 50, and this song is over 20 years old. Music is ageless!
So many years later, this song still gets me every time. We all have that one soul song. This is mine.
Mine too... hits me Every Single Time
Every. Single. Time. ❤️
Yes so true. Nobody's Fault But Mine is a great song by Led Zeppelin
Corey can do Heavy metal and this, So much respect for him
A true musician speaks to all audiences always reflect singing along hits deep every time
Micheal Drew who cares if he does
This song is heavy too btw
Seriously. Corey is just an amazing vocalist
Definitely one of the very best ever.
One of the best of all time uncontested
Daniel Wells i beyond agree
absolutely
If he does not scream the yes
Corey Taylor's voice just sends chills through my soul, beautiful,yet powerfull.
I agree 100%. When you get the chance, look up Aaron Lewis 'Someone'...I mean, any Aaron Lewis song, honestly. You feel the emotion in his voice and it seems so effortless.
Who says a heavy metal band doesn't have a masterful singer WHAT Corey Taylor I adore his voice amaaaaaazingly talented WOW! Chills yes and a beautiful feeling too Corey touches the core of my being when he sings...
Probably just chills from COVID😝
Corey Taylor is such a fascinating man. He's so talented and multifaceted, a true musical genius that I've added on the top tier alongside a few others
Amen to that
💀 COREY TAYLOR made a crazy impact on my life.. He got me clean, several times. Ty corey#8
Yeah but he shouldn't wear eyeliner on videos anymore lol.
the best 👌
And intelligent too
It hurts me every time when all of the other band mates walk up and form a circle around Corey. In my eyes, this is a visual representation that even though you are never alone through depression. Your just too numb and broken to realize it. I wish the best of luck to anybody who is out there suffering. Always talk to somebody. And remember that you are never alone.
When I was a kid I saw these lyrics written on a bridge at a local lake:
"I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season. For this I gave up trying, one good turn deserves my dying."
For years I was haunted by this because I didn't know they were lyrics and thought I had found someone's suicide note. It only just occurred to me that these might be lyrics, so I googled them and ended up here. That's one big mystery of my life solved... I just hope whoever felt like quoting this song at the lake was doing all right when they wrote that.
This song is on the soundtrack to Spiderman 2, thats where I heard it - & check that soundtrack out. Some cracking songs.. Invisible Man especially. :) Peace.
Wow. Well said. The emotions were so real..I bet you can still feel them. Cant you?
very introspective of you. i hope so too
Cool how life is
@@Snarkathon bother is on the first Spider-Man soundtrack
I have so much more of an appreciation for this song in my 30s. So much music means more to me now than ever.
I suffer from depression and anxiety. This is the mental and physical pain I experience. It is excruciating and exhausting yet we keep holding on 'til we bleed because we know that letting go isn't the solution.
That's right, don't ever let go!! You are being stronger than you know. Even if you don't have anyone that loves you. Do this for yourself. I've been diagnosed with ADD, and this gives me anxiety also. All my life I've felt like I was never enough, now I feel different. I live for my family and my friends, and my wife. Good luck, hang in their. Just seeing the problem is half the battle. NEVER GIVE UP!!
Me to
I feel you brother.
Same
I feel you so much there.
This song is a pinpoint description of the pain and torment in a person's brain with depression and anxiety as well as substance addiction. So if you ever want to know what the thinking is like of someone with depression, just listen to the words of this song. Stay strong my friends! Always light at the end of the tunnel even though sometimes we can't see that light. One of my all time favorite songs. This song helped me through the roughest time in my life. I've beaten alcoholism by myself with zero support what so ever. I had not one friend left by the time I quit.Ive repaired most relationships that we're destroyed by alcohol but some still haven't been repaired. I've almost got my depression beat as well. I knew once I got rid of alcohol that my depression would slowly get better and it has.i never had depression before I started drinking heavy. No pills, no therapy, no rehab, just good ol fashioned will power but most of the credit goes to God for showing me the way. If you don't believe in God it's only because you have never had a spiritual connection or don't understand how. One day something will happen and you will just know there is someone watching over you and guiding you. Not trying to bring religion in this because I respect everyones own beliefs but respect mine too. Been well over 18 months and still feel better and better everyday that passes without booze. Don't think for a second that alcohol is safe just because it's socially acceptable. That was my mistake and didn't realize that alcohol is one of the most destructive drugs on this planet when abused. It destroys relationships in the long run and will destroy your life. Nothing will matter except getting that next drink and feeding the demon/addiction. You don't need rehab and you don't need medication to quit. You need to get angry to fight addiction. You got to get mad at the addiction and you got to hate it even if you like it. Hate it for all the relationships it's destroyed, hate it for all the potential it took away, hate it for making you sick, hate it for ruining your life. Once you build up enough hate for alcohol, then boom destroy your addiction and quit for good, then take your life back that the addiction stole from you. If you slip up, oh well that's part of the process, just start over but never give up ever. Took me six times over 2 years to finally quit for good. I never thought I could quit. If I can do it, everyone can do it! Eventually you won't ever want to touch it again. Alcohol will kill you just as easy as any other hard drug. Don't be a fool if your abusing alcohol or alcohol is abusing you. If your a responsible drinker, more power to you but wasn't that way for me. It takes months if not years to fully beat alcohol 100%. It takes a long time for your brain to repair the damage alcohol causes. It's easy after first 4 months. Alcohol will turn people into something their not or a different person. It brought out the worse in me. Don't know why I felt obligated to write this but if it helps one person it was worth it. Stay strong my friends! I'm sure I wasn't the only alcoholic that listened to this song when drinking. Now it's a memory of everything ive accomplished since quitting. If you can't do it for yourself, do it for your family and friends!
julious davis More than worth it. I got Bi-Polar Depression alongside a shopping list of other fucked up shit (I'm only 19 mind you so despite my experiences, a lot of which I'd rather forget, I'm sure there's more to come) and it's cool reading other people's stories. I can't share my story because I'm still fighting and it isn't over yet. I'm winning though and I always appreciate these stories because if someone needs to know that there's hope, I can tell them about someone who's overcome it all, that I'm fighting to do the same and the person in need can do it too. I am extremely grateful for your addition of doing if for your loved ones if you can't for yourself because a lot of people tell their stories but leave out that very important detail. The stories may help but if the person in need doesn't realize they're not alone and there's people who care about them, it could end up being told in vain. Thank you for adding that because that bit has such a harder impact in times like these than people realize. They get so caught up in the story they forget to remind the person who or what makes it all worth it. You weren't obligated to write this, but you're a good man with good intentions and you had the courage to act on that feeling. On behalf of the people you have and will help with this, I want to thank you. Take care my friend and keep fighting the good fight!
Goten Ittetsu Thanks my man for your kind words. Keep fighting bro! Never give up! I honestly thought when I was a heavy drinker that was my life for the rest of my life. I know now it was the alcohol talking. Unfortunately I had to hit rock bottom to see what a piece of shit I had become. I've done so many great things since quitting. I'm just so grateful to be able to quit and so optimistic about life in general. Sure things can still be hard from time to time but learning how to handle problems without substance abuse is the key. Eventually it becomes easy and in general I'm just a way happier person since quitting. I felt really alone when I was a alcoholic and I pretty much was. No one wants to be with someone who is destroying their life. I'm very fortunate that most of my relationships we're fixed. I know it sounds corny but I'm just high on life now a days. There is just so much I missed out on for so many years. I look forward to the future now but when I drank I dreaded the next day always. My body is so much healthier now! It's never too late to quit. The thing that most people don't understand is it takes your body a lot of time to heal itself after a addiction but it will get better and better everyday that passes. Well good luck and don't ever be afraid to reach out if you need someone to talk to.
julious davis there is no light at the end of my tunnel just more pain
DemonMutt007 yeah there is buddy! Even if you can't see it, trust me it's there. Positive thinking and a good attitude can go a long way. Talking heals buddy, don't hold in the pain anymore. Let it all out and anytime your ready for a fresh brand new start, it is waiting. Good luck bud! I do know how you feel because wasn't all too long ago I had same attitude. I was drinking heavy, pretty much a walking zombie, not a friend left to talk to. I was drinking fifth to half gallon of whiskey a night. Argue with anyone willing to argue back. When I put down the booze for good, that's when my life started doing good again. It will get better. Time heals pain! Trust me on that one buddy! Well good luck, wish you the best and don't be afraid to reach out if you need someone to talk to. I'm not a big pharmacuetical guy but everyone is different. talk therapy works really good. Most are good at organizing our crazy thoughts and understanding the deeper meaning behind them. If you go that route, find someone your comfortable with. Well good luck, it will get easier.
julious davis I wish I could say I believe you but I've had one hell of a life and I'm only 26 the past 4 it's just gotten worse and I'm also suffering from a addiction that I'v kept a secret from everyone no on know how fucked my heads right now I wanna die but at the same time I wanna live it's such a struggle each day
I feel this song is about depression and self loathing. How he's slipping further and further into depression and nothing can stop it except death itself. Personally, when I get depressed I always imagine myself thirty or fifty years from now. Old and too tired to care. Knocking on the door of my next home. This thought alone puts me in a depressed state. this song speaks to me on so many levels. Depression is one hell of a disease and is key for great songwriting.
Amen. I always had an intense relationship with the music written by the tortured souls of rock, metal, blues and even hip hop...... It seemed I always felt a pull towards the songs written by those suffering addictions, depression , suicidal thoughts , self destruction etc etc etc. dunno why I'm responding to you're comment beyond the "amen" , guess I just liked what you said ;-)
Oh please continue on. I always enjoy hearing peoples thoughts and emotions. Don't explain yourself darling. Always display how you feel or else it'll eat you from inside out. Thank you for the personal relations. Empathy is the greatest gift given for knowledge but at the price of inner peace.
i agree. its a sad song
But cool like it!! Listen every da ;)
No lie your explanation was beyond familiar great words bud.
I feel it
One of the best songs ever with the best music video ever. This is how you tell a story and I have lived through this
*Corey is a great vocalist and lyricist*
Central Iowa is a very underrated place. It kinda sucks but grows very real people.
He's got a great voice. Next to Aaron Lewis. Love them both
Yes sir he sure is
hell yeah
Yes!
This song and Snuff, shows that Corey Taylor is one of the greatest poets of our era.
Snuff gets me every fucking time. That and Zzyzx Road. 2 extremely powerful songs.
Not Long for this World falls under this category
You just like post-Grunge
1 of is accurately rendered
@@TroyTravels922 To infer that anyone is *"The"* best, is to be painfully subjective. Everyone has different feelings and emotional responses from what they've experienced, and personal tastes in music.
I always feel like this song is for guys whose dads were bad or weren't around. "I'll keep slipping farther" also sounds like "I'll keep slipping father" and it makes me cry for you who go through that 🤍
Yeah, I get that from it too 😢
I watched my father pass away earlier this month. This song is without a doubt how i feel. May all of us troubled soul's find peace before it's too late.
I am sorry for your loss. Sending prayers up for you and your family.
🙏MAY GOD SHINE IN EVERY SOUL WITH ALL HIS LOVE,💜🙏🌈💯
Sorry to hear about your loss.
'Snuff', 'Through Glass' and 'Bother'. I have been listening to these 3 tracks everyday for about 3 months now and still can't get over it. Corey Taylor you're a gem.

This song still chills me to my core...such powerful emotion and sound and message!!!
Both this song and snuff bring me to tears. They are terribly relatable and beautiful and powerful. Incredible writing.
This song and video still give me goosebumps. Amazing vocalist, writing, composition. This is the song that introduced me to Stone Sour.
My best friend Mike was a huge fan of this song. He used to play it often and sing to it because he was also a singer. He suffered from being Bi-polar manic depressant type two with schizophrenia. Ultimately he lost his battle within his own mind and took his life on his girlfriends grave. This song always has and always will remind me of him.
FONTENOT me also. I feel him.
FONTENOT sorry for your friend. Hopefully he's found peace now no longer in that battle of mental illness
I hope they both find peace. Stay strong.

Such emotion in Corey's vocals. Just an incredible song. An all time favorite of mine.
My brother died a week ago
We were pretty much inseparable
We were the same flesh
We were the same blood
We were brothers
Till i i breath my last breath,our memories are forever.
Blaine Farmer here, have some attention
@@RichardCranium69420 lmao
sorry for your loss man! couldn't imagine lossing my brother!
"We were brothers" you still are brothers even in death. Brothers are for life.
None of my brothers will speak to me. That shit kills me. Like all 5 brothers died at once.
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
[Solo: Corey]
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit

Impactful lyrics
I don't think truly gifted musicians and bands realize the enourmous power they posess to mold and shape the world. Their messages and the feelings they invoke in people are like electricity. ♡
Corey is also a hell of a good man!! Nothing but love for ya Corey!!!
one of the most beautiful songs ever written, would never get bored or fed up hearing it
My son just died in car accident January 7th 2022 and stone sour and slip knot are his absolute favorite bands he worships Corey Taylor and I'm gonna have some of his songs played at his service this Saturday 15 I can't deal with the pain of losing him he would have been 32 this February and he always said he never wanted to bother anyone I said you could never bother me you are my son I love you with everything in me rest easy son I love you so much I can't wait to be with you again❤❤❤❤❤😭😭😭😭😭😭

I’m very sorry 😞 🙏🙏🙏
This song proves how tragic some times people go through, suffering from depression and anxiety brings us down in the feels and it makes us sad I feel for all that suffer from depression and anxiety, you’re not alone ❤️
Such a great song...his voice with such haunting emotion...perfect
Havent heard this song in yrs!! Im really needing to hear it now. Some of rhe lyrics are hitting so close. I love Corey's work!!
Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support🎵💖
This is pretty much how I feel since my Mom died of cancer. I play it on guitar now and then. So damn sad, yet so powerful at the same time. I love you Mom 💜

Lots of hugs❤
I know it's been a year since you posted this . I lost my mom in 2016 also due to cancer . I won't say it gets easier .
The first year was the hardest.
But you do get better at coping with such a heavy loss.
You'll be okay .

A little song dedicated to my buddy who after he passed away I haven't stopped listening to this song I also performed this song as a tribute to him
I was often called quiet. Little did I or anyone know that I was holding on to so much hate and resentment from being emotionally abused as a kid. My voice often didn’t feel valuable to me. However, at 38 I hit rock bottom and went to therapy. I found God and I’m going on my 3rd year of college trying to rebuild a life I never knew existed. If I can do it, so can anyone else! I believe in you! The words from this song that hit me every time: “never had a voice to protest, so you fed me sh*t to digest!” Your not alone my friends!
To this day, this is still one of the most creative music videos ever produced. Great reflection of the lyrics of the song
in the late 90s and early 2000s musicians spent millions per video, made the best of it, unlike today.
Beautiful. And always touches my heart. I relate so much. “Wish I was too dead to care, if indeed I cared at all.” The line of the century.
This song reminds me of the pain I endured in a 5 year abusive relationship and now I have finally escaped and can be free from that pain.
Same. We got this!
To both of you, I am proud of you for getting out of that! Many people in this world feel as though they are trapped in such relationships and situations. The bravery you two showed by breaking out of such a dark place is inspiring to me, and most likely, many others. Peace and love ❤

good to see you got out, i hope you get stronger and rise up dude
Feel this song down to the very core of my soul.. helps every time!
😢 the pain dulls but I don't think it ever stops even when you find a little bit of happiness it's still there in the pit of your stomach and it's changed you no matter how much you say it hasn't you will never let yourself get hurt that way again, I spent 20+ years protecting myself and when I finally was convinced that she was never going to hurt me I let go and I'm sure I shouldn't have now, still in love with someone who has completely cut me out of her life, I keep telling myself I should have never let go and kept myself guarded so that I wouldn't have to feel like this but I know that I can love someone like that again, myself I never understood what people were talking about because I just never cared that much about me, I was more concerned about making everyone around me happy only to find myself heartbroken and lonely looking for someone who was like myself who would give me back what I was giving them, now I know that the only person who is capable is me, I haven't figured out how yet but I know that drugs and alchohol only make it easier to live without that pain for a short period of time and then you just have more pain and more problems to add to your hollowness, I can't imagine what it must've been like to have loving supportive people in my life I think I would be happier but I know I would be weaker because you only gain strength through strif. Good luck making peace with your demons I would say turn to God if I could forgive him myself but maybe one day I will understand why I have had to go through so much pain
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades

Thank you!
Man does this bring back them good ole day memories!! Awesome song hands down. 2018 rock on !!
Some real shit right here. Touches you on a personal level. I've always wished there was another version of this song with a hard breakdown.
You don't touch perfection
One of the most emotional songs ive ever heard...makes me feel....everything
I remember listening to this song all the time when I was at my lowest... makes me reminisce the feelings I had but now that I overcame and picked myself up from the hole I was in, remembering these feelings is kind of empowering... How I overcame such crippling sadness (both figuratively and literally)
Just the right amount of depression and loss in a song. Corey's soul is like no other. Really shows his vocal range and commitment to what he writes about. 3:18 Is my favorite part in this Masterpiece.
My dad loved this song, he passed away last week. I should be Lucky for the time I got he was 71, but it's never enough. I'm 35 now and it's going to be a long time until I can see him again.
Miss you dad.
I know that a lot of us can FEEL this song. For many years I felt like it would be my last breath. For so many years I "wish I died instead of live" but I'm still here. And I don't want loose this fight. Anymore
this ballad is truly timeless. ive had it on repeat for two days now- so so so good
As someone with bipolar depression, I feel like this song is talking about what it is like to be depressed, particularly the apathy and lifelessness described in the song.
I feel like this is Left Behind's gentler little brother or somethin.. they're both similar in ways if you read the words.
yes I believe your right about that and only those with depression will really understand what this songs about
+Lacie Baskerville You can be bipolar, or you can suffer from manic depression. I guess you ordered one of each...
The song is about his struggle with addiction and not quite having a hold on it yet. But once he does he wont let go till it bleeds
I happen to have both mania and depression, hence the meaning bipolar, meaning two poles or spectrums. I didn't order it, I've been diagnosed with it since I was a teen and am on meds for it, so I'm not making it up. I just identified a lot with this song since it fits my ever-changing mental stability.

Yessir, took me back to 2002.
i miss you daddy, even though you are still alive, time ticks and we don't speak and it breaks my heart to bits and pieces, this is our song.
in the same boat. my father is the biggest piece of shit to walk the earth. have not seen him in 11 yrs..but i miss so much.he dont know his only grandson.my wife says to reach out to him.i tried.but only cried when i heard his voice.i need to forgive him and make piece..time is short.so make that call and say { love you dad} before the sand runs out.
Corey's lyrics bring out what many of us bury deep inside. Listening does help us deal with our inner demons. When you face your past and move away from painful memories, you realize your strength to live. Self-preservation can be a struggle throughout our lives.
Sometimes I feel like I would die without this song. Its beautiful.
song makes me cry every time I hear it. beautiful
same here
I am just stunned, when i hear it ...
It's overwelming.
I could be having a fun day and all my emotions happy but when the song plays I instantly have to go to the store to get an extra supply of tissues.
GAVIN IS ME i do the same thing when i log onto pornhub
Played at best friends funeral...feel ya
well Im on this ptsd, heavey depression, adhd, band wagon, and its been awhile since I listened to this song. and as I say " its comforting to see similar struggles, and appreciations" it reminds me of meeting my new room mate the other day, they say " I suffer from sever depression and anxiety" I was like " thats GREAT! me too ...ohh" lmao not that its great but its nice to have some one around that can understand the struggles we have , when it seems like anyone without an emotional or mental illness, just cant grasp the way we live or the suffering we endure, not to say we have it worst then the rest of the world, but as any of you with a struggle know, its not easy. good luck to one and all, keep your heads up. even a few small steps can be a leap ^^ one day at time

Fuck adhd 👍

This song helped/is helping me through so much, it has a wonderful meaning and it means so much to me. Thank you stone sour for making great music🤘🖤
This song was the lifeline between myself and suicide at the age of 16. Abuse survivor. Almost cut my own arm off in self mutilation accident at this time, lost 2 1-2 liters of blood in under 3 min. Over 9 hours of surgery and 2 blood transfusions I came out ok. Abuser was heard saying maybe next time she should try for her throat. This song was a sort of anthem before the arm injury. Still listen to it today when I’m feeling the same things. Music is so powerful. It has such an amazing ability to ground us, even when we feel there is no reason to keep going. This song saved me many of times.
How do you cut your arm off?
Jamie Dahlin I didn’t. I almost did. Self mutilation. Brand new top of the line kitchen knife meant for carving chicken bones. Slammed it on my arm, right below where it bends. Sliced into bone. Demolished my arm in a spit second and severed all my tendons, nerves, and major arteries. Blood sprayed well over 6 feet in the air. My entire outfit was soaked completely in blood in mere seconds. Went into shock.
You're a hero
Get it! Such a great song!
Your courageous, brave and beautiful. You deserve happiness and I hope you find it one day if haven’t already.
When I was suicidal years ago and depressed I would listen to this song and it would pull me through the pain I was in..

“I wish I had a reason my flaws are open season”. Beautifully worded.
February 2019 still listening, Damn..Corey's voice is incredible.
Same here babe
outside of his voice what do you appreciate about the lyrics my sister?
This song was played at one of my close friends funeral March 7th of 2011. Can't listen to it without crying of tearing up a bit anymore. It's a really good touching song though, I won't stop listening to it after the sad event that had occurred.
This tune is so dark and beautiful....I'm grateful that I'm not in this place anymore....spent so many years in intense pain and depression....almost anything is better than feeling so utterly hopeless and despondent....
My brother wrecked his truck yesterday, is in pretty bad shape. Broke his neck, his back, one of his arms and has severe head trauma. Dr said he may not make it. I've been listening to this song off and on all day to get me through what I'm feeling. Anyone that reads this, please say a prayer for my brother.
Got you covered on them prayers brother…be easy stay patient and positive man..God bless both you fellas and your families
Hope your brother is alright man
Whoa holy ish...sorry to hear that. I'll keep you all in my prayers as well. Keep us updated on how he is doin ok
I hope your brother okay, hon. Sending prayers and love out to you and yours ❤️
How's your brother. How are you
9 years clean and when the urge comes creeping I will put this song on and take deep breaths. When I was detoxing I played this on repeat and it still helps to this day. ❤❤
Stay clean. Sobriety is worth it. Never forget that the whole "one last time" shit always ends bad, usually with the user dead on the floor somewhere, like in a friends bathroom or something worse.
@@GrantWeddle yeah brother. My 2 kids and my wife are my drug now and I love it
Well done❤
@@jackiehibbard3696 thank you so much!! 🙏 ♥️♥️
You can do this, sending all my love ❤
So I havent heard this song in probably well over a decade and a guy last night at work was playing it and I forgot this era of insane good alternative music. The song has to be one of the greatest ever...if not one of the most underestimated songs ever. Corey Taylor is an absurd awesome talent.
Lol. I bet you was like "fuckin A" after you heard it.
Killer song. Always will be.
I have loved this song for 11 years now. Still has just as big of a impact on my soul today just as much as it did 11 years ago.
This has always been one of my favorite songs... But it takes on a whole new level of the feels after my husband took his own life... Some music that was my favorite now just puts me in my feelings so hard.
I'm sorry for your loss 😔 I've been thinking about it a lot more lately, everything just seems to keep getting harder and lonelier and I don't think it's going to get any better probably ever but definitely not soon. Even my therapist ghosted me 😔 I really don't see the point anymore
Thank you and I'm sorry. I know life gets hard, sounds like a crap therapist. Don't give up and find a new one..just because one sucks doesn't mean they all do.
Corey has such a beautiful voice!!! Such a beautiful song :D
and a beautiful face XD
Maggot 666 yes!!!!!
:D
listen to slipknot
you will know just how great he is then
LordAardvark42 that's how i found out about stone sour
Corey is definitely one of the greatest of all time.
Absolutely beautiful. Masterpiece. Corey Taylor is one hell of a talented person.
Corey Taylor is one of the most gifted and talented song writers on the planet
Amen
