Vermilion Songtext
von Slipknot

She seems dressed in all the rings of past fatalities
So fragile yet so devious, she continues to see it
Climatic hands that press her temples and my chest
Enter the night that she came home forever

Oh, yeah
What am I doing here?
She′s my imagination come alive
What am I doing, what am I doing here?
She's my imagination come alive
What am I doing, what am I doing here?
She′s my imagination come alive

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 that makes me sad
What am I doing here?
She's my imagination come alive
What am I doing, what am I doing here?
She′s my imagination come alive
My imagination come alive, come alive

Hard to say what caught my attention
Vixen 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

Oh, I'm a slave, and I am a master
No restraints and unchecked collectors
I exist through 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


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
She isn′t real
I can't make her real
She isn′t real
I can't make her real

You still with us out there, my friends?
There′s a lot of people that did not believe in this band
There's a lot of people who tried to destroy it and tried to cheating it
And tried to say we′re something other than what it was
Was basically the noise of all the people who've been misunderstood for too fucking long
Say, "Fuck you, you will not control my fucking life"

So, I would like to dedicate this song
On behalf of all of us to all of them
Because they'll never understand, they will never understand the way we do it
Is that right?
So here we go
