Vermilion, Pt. 2 Lyrics

She seems dressed in all of me
Stretched across my shame
All the torment and the pain
Leaked through and covered me
I'd do anything to have her to myself
Just to have her for myself
Now I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
When she makes me sad

She is everything to me
The unrequited dream
A song that no one sings
The unattainable
She's a myth that I have to believe in
All I need to make it real is one more reason
I don't know what to do
I don;t know what to do
When she makes me sad

But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me
But I won't let this build up inside of me

I catch in my throat
Choke
Torn into pieces
I won't, no
I don't want to be this

But I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I won't let this build up inside of me
(Won't let this build up inside of me, won't let this build up inside of me)

She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
She isn't real
(Won't let this build up inside of me)
I can't make her real
(Won't let this build up inside of me

What is the Meaning of Vermilion, Pt. 2?

Oh, the agony of unrequited love—Slipknot style! "Vermilion, Pt. 2" dives into the depths of longing for someone who's as elusive as a mirage in a desert. The protagonist is absolutely wrapped up in his feelings, wearing his heartache like a heavy coat that's gone out of fashion but he can't seem to take off. He grapples with the reality that his dream girl is more of a fantasy, an ideal he can't manifest into reality no matter how much he chokes on the effort. It’s like trying to hold onto smoke with your bare hands 🌫️. Ultimately, he resolves not to let this inner turmoil destroy him, repeating almost like a mantra that he won’t let it build up inside. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place! #UnrequitedLove #EmotionalTurbulence #InnerStruggle
