Slipknot: Vermillion Meaning

Song Released: 2004

Vermillion Lyrics

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 (She's the only one that makes me...

   Corey said in an interview with songfacts.com that vermillion is about the building of relationship problems. Its all the bullshit you put up with and vermillion pt.2 is about the fall of it. what is left after the harshness and what is left of you.

   Have you guys seen the video of this song.The girl is trapped in a world where everything is moving so fast that she is unable to keep up with it virtually everything is beyond her grasp It is as if she doesn't exist...she does however nurture a butterfly and sets it free but for a very sinister reason At the end of the song the butterfly stops fluttering and dies in her hands and the girl smiles she finally gets to Keep something...
   CREEPY!!!!!!!!!!!

   It's about a dream of a perfect girl. Then a realization of her not being real.

   i think this song is about how he wants love but he's only around groupies how do the dirty deed and split. i also thought it might be about a guy who was in love with a girl who had multiple personalities and the one he loved was not who she actually was

   This song is about recalling the initial feelings for that person you thought was the "one." It's about the enrapture and putting to words the power another person can have over you... How a single person can make you feel the entire spectrum of emotion and sometimes it's as if there is no way out.

   I think this song refers to the fact that it is very hard to find true love, and that one must always compromise their opinions and beliefs to make a relationship work, the perfect one can't exist, and it is an illusion that the one you are with is perfect, I gotta say I disagree, but its a cool song nonetheless.

   I think this song is a very frustrated song about the battle of one's obsession with someone they can't have and its killing them on the inside and if it continues they don't know what they'll do.

   It has been released in a statement (not sure who by I'm assuming Shawn or Corey) that this song is a Stalkers Love Song. Not sure how that works, but yeah.
