Slipknot | Vermilion | (Vocal Cover)

MEANING
'Vermilion' delves into the depths of a dark and complex obsession. The lyrics describe a female figure who appears to be the focus of an intense and possibly destructive fixation on the part of the narrator. References to 'rings of past doom' and 'climatic hands' suggest a mixture of past experiences and intense emotions being projected onto this woman, who is described as 'everything and more', and as a 'solemn hypnotic'.
The use of metaphors such as 'my dahlia, bathed in possession' and 'a pheromone cult to terrify' illustrates the almost sacred and yet terrifying nature of the narrator's obsession. The repetition of 'I won't let this build up inside me' reflects an internal struggle, a resistance to being consumed by these overwhelming feelings. The song also explores the duality of being a slave and master of your own passions, suggesting a struggle for control and emotional autonomy.
The song's conclusion, with the lines 'She's not real, I can't make her real', reveals the possibility that this obsession is with an unattainable ideal or an illusion, rather than a real person. The narrator's struggle is as much with his own inner demons as it is with the reality of his situation. Slipknot's musical style, known for its intensity and ability to explore dark themes, perfectly complements the tone and theme of the song.

LYRICS
She seems dressed in all the rings
Of past fatalities
So fragile yet so devious
She continues to see
Climatic hands that press
Her temples and my chest
Enter the night that she came home (forever)
Oh (she's the only one that makes me sad)
She is everything and more
The solemn hypnotic
My dahlia, bathed in possession
She is home to me
I get nervous, perverse
When I see her, it's worse
But the stress is astounding
It's now or never
She's coming home (forever)
Oh (she's the only one who makes me sad)
Hard to say what caught my attention
Fixed and crazy
Aphid attraction
Carve my name in my face
To recognize
Such a pheromone cult
To terrorize
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
Yeah
I'm a slave and
I am a master
No restraints
And unchecked collectors
I exist to my need
To self-oblige
She is something in me
That I despise
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
I won't let this build up inside of me
She isn't real
I can't make her real
She isn't real
I can't make her real
