I think the lyrics talk about a person who is suffering from a depersonalization disorder (one of the many dissociative disorders). It is often caused by strong feelings of anxiety, probably what Jonathan Davis felt after being abused as a child and then ignored by their parents (who thought he was lying). It is very common for abused children to experience this kind of problems in their childhood or even later in life. This disorder brings intense feelings of depersonalization and/or derealization, like the ones described in parts of the song such as: «I'm so blind», «a lost reality that I can never find», «a way to reach my inner self(esteem)» et cetera. The persons who suffer from the condition tend to create a place inside their minds where they "hide" theirselves and try to avoid reality at all costs for it being too painful to deal with, sometimes even losing control over what they do in their realities: «a lost reality that I can never find» |
