Thx for doing this videos, now i understand what the songs rly means, and your explanation help me to solve or at least have a guidance how to face feelings
This song is actually about his ex wife Scarlet. Scarlet is a shade of red and so is vermillion. Hence why the song is called Vermilion. It’s about getting your heart broken and realizing that the person you fell in love with and built your entire life around isn’t real. The first one delves into those darker feelings of obsession and possessiveness that we sometimes experience when we love someone. Part 2 is about acceptance, letting go, and the pain that comes with that.
A song that no one sings…
I just discovered this channel and that song is… well… connected to many things. I didn’t expect to find it here, as it isn’t as famous as other songs covered.
I appreciated to encounter it, as internally complex as it can be. Thanks.
Everyone learns & music teaches when people listen to honestly understand the meanings. Slipknot is awesome!
Your analysis is soo good. Cory may be writing about about whatever specifically hes writing about, but your first take analysis is just as valid as anything. That the beautiful thing about music.
When I was younger and I used to drink, this was my song of sorrow at night before going to bed. Now that I’m sober an older of course. I’ll take it how you understood it, because it sounds very true to what I am dealing now. I look back at other relationships, women that I couldn’t be with and I wanted to. This makes so much sense. The fourth step tells me that, this is just one root of my problem. THANK YOU. There is so much for me to figure out and work out and I am glad that I have the rest of my life to do it. Being human is, so much interesting now.
I love this channel! The way you broke this down, even though I’ve been a fan since I was in high school was incredible. Divorced six years ago and watched my family go through hell and have done everything to force my external world into something that I need it to be for me and my kids because I still can’t understand what happened to the life I had in my hands…damn

I’m being sarcastic !
Thank you I appreciate this video so much. I’m going through a rough breakup rn and it’s really helping
My favorite part “A catch in my throat. Choak, But I won’t let this build inside of me.” The realization that it’s just a fantasy and it is reality that he needs to face.
To me it’s always been about perpetual loneliness and rejection. It’s about feeling unwanted and wanting to have someone, but “she isn’t real”, “she’s a myth that I have to believe in”, the “Unrequited dream”, “The unattainable”.
I don’t think it’s about one specific woman, but rather the idea of there being someone to have “for myself”.
