Slipknot snuff what is it about

She "refused to fight" for their love. Just like you said, 'what he really wants is for her to stay with him and "fight" through the battles and obstacles of the relationship - to make it work no matter how hard it might be'.

This interpretation leads to a twist in translation for the next line as well. I think It made it very clear. As discussed already, she more or less just left and didn't put up much of a fight. Now she's trying to either justify herself to him or just smooth things over. Either way, he's had enough now that he's seen her true colors, and she can just save her breath. That could explain the constant repetition of "love" and "hate" in the lyrics.

He wants her to leave him for both his and her own good. But he doesn't want to be there when she runs away. Even though he wants to hurt her, so she will hate him and leave him, he doesn't, because he cares for her. He wants to remember her- only the good. He also doesn't want to know if she cares because he doesn't want it to inspire thoughts of her, which would make him feel love for her again- which would bring him rage. He believes that because of things he has done, although he cares for her, it is his fate to be alone.

He doesn't want his smile to return because he doesn't feel he deserves it. He is punishing himself by purging his life of all hopes at happiness. Kinkcesity on July 03, Just some of my own ideas and interpretations. That was brilliant Leoncurts on April 06, Great insight it helped me I was thinking the same he doesnt want to bring her down to him and destroy her light. Everything probaly turns to ashes 5fdp. Leoncurts on May 12, I think this song is about the other person cheating, and I dont think he is the bad person I think she is So save your breath, I will not hear I think I made it very clear You couldn't hate enough to love Is that supposed to be enough?

I can relate to this song at the moment although the roles are reversed I'am the woman being cheated on. I think it is indifference toward his significant other that he is talking about He wishes he could at least hate her so that he could walk away and not care the pain it would cause.

However, like a platonic friend, he doesn't want to hurt her I get the feeling that through the course of the relationship she was actually the one who was indifferent and never truly cared for him and now that the roles are reversed, she is the "angel" who is granted the ability to twist the past to fit her current stanse About the death of hope and love and the wish that the other walks away because you are tired of being the bad guy.

General Comment Well, i love this song too, it's beautiful and i really think the song is about a guy who was in a relationship but they broke up she broke up with him and he had the worst time forgetting her, letting her go, and then after months or maybe years she's back and she tells him that she loves him but he remembers how hard was it to forget her and he thinks "i won't let her hurt me again like the last time" so he's telling her "so if you love me let me go, or run away before i know" because he knows he will fall for her again but he does not want that, he's suffered enough That's what i think!

I may be wrong but the beautiful thing about songs is that we can make our own interpretation : vosem on July 30, Link. General Comment I'm gonna drop some knowledge on everyone saying the song's about Paul Gray: The album came out in Paul Gray died in You guys think Corey wrote a song for his deceased friend, Paul Gray, while he was still alive?

Just because he's dedicated it to him posthumously and in live performances, doesn't mean it had anything to do with Paul while he was alive. I, personally, think the song is about letting go of love, and the pain that accompanies that. General Comment I wish more of their songs were like this. Doomsquad on August 21, Link. Song Meaning First i want to say that this song means a lot to me.

It's really deep and since the first time i heard it i couldn't stop doing it over and over again. For me, it's about wanting to have something that's already slipping through your fingers. It's about something that is over and it hurts to be over. It's a goodbye and final confession. It's about loving so much that you cant separate yourself from the person you love - you are so close, know each other so well. You become almost obsessed with the smell of the loved one, of their presence and you want it badly.

You can forget who you are and what others see you when you're with me - i think that's what it means. It's a plea from someone who wants to be wanted. Corey Taylor is actually the primary writer of this song. This song is very special to Slipknot considering it was the final single they released before the tragic death of their beloved bassist Paul Gray. Gray actually died less than a year after the song was released.

Corey went on to pay an emotional tribute to Gray with an acoustic version of the song. He would perform this emotional version on many of his solo shows. Say it fast like you really talk. Music is life for a 14 year old.

Not metal for me in my opinion. Snuff also means to extinguish. Like a fire with wind. So Corey might have named it Snuff because his unrequited love for the girl with no heart snuffed him out emotionally. Or it could have multiple meanings on purpose. I love your voice, the emotion you have and the beautiful but sad lyrics. Its another personal one. Again, not naming names its about someone who helped me through a lot and I thought she felt the same way that I did and she really let me down.

At the same time, it was good that she did, because it was that final push to me figuring out myself. I don't know exactly which one but to me it sounds like the fight he put up hoping we weren't just humans walking around for nothing or something that isn't what he thought.

This song carried me without a doubt through one of the worst break ups i have ever had. That helpless feeling of missing someone and then you slowly start to realize you are better off, become angry and realize "it took the death of hope to let you go" That to me is the most powerful lyric in the entire song.

The absolute low you have to hit, to let that glimmer of hope die. I think this song is about a relationship that's obvious, he loves a women but feels like hes not good enough, he just wants to support her but she keeps using him, he pushes her away, but then misses her; but then again pushes her away, soon realizing what shes done to him, and how shes made him depressed and angry he ends up leaving for good, yet still loves her.

I'm going through this situation as I'm typing this out and I've got to say He captures the way I'm feeling like he is here goj,g through it with me and if anyone's been through or goj,g through this then I hope you find your way out of this as quickly and with as less pain as you can. I loved this girl with my all and she always leaves me and I get the part of feeling being used because I feel so fucking used up right now. My love for her had turned to hate.

Even with the hate I miss her and it's fucked up to be honest. I won't be broken again by her or love again.. Fuck that shit!!!! It's a song about getting out of the Darkness after being left alone.

The First Part, is the initial Darkness and not knowing what to do next. I myself know this sting, Being left suddenly and unable to do anything but sit by and watch it happen. Okay I have a bad memory with this song but I still love the song my ex bf told me to listen to this song and it explained what happend to us and in one of the lyrics it "if u love me let me go and run away befor I know my heart is just to dark to care I think he's trying to say that he wants this girl to get out of his life bc he's wants what's best for her and he thinks he's not good enough for her bc he's changed so much but love is also a pain in the ass In another lyric it says if I can't change I hope I never know I think it's saying that he wants to change but he can't figure out how another lyric says you sold me out to save urself she used him Okay one more lyric it say I still press ur letters to my lips he misses he alot but can't have her back.

Its a theme album, therefor it must be about the end of the world or about our creators the alien gods. Its about God. Anonymous the ex-H addict Your post was on Well done for cleaning up!

Still going strong? This song is about how he tried, and gave, and sacrificed and then realized he was only being used. All his effort for nothing, he was, in the end, worthless to this woman. This song captures the pain of loving someone and them not loving you back.
