Alone I Break

this song also means a lot to me since i can relate to it and so can probably lots of other people..

This has to be about suicide. No doubt about it. Lovely song though.

My friend says he relates to this song..i asked him what he thought n he told me this "to me, it means like, you take so much shit from people, and you take on all their shit, but when it gets to big, and yuou gonna break down, they bail on you, "alone i break" and it just about that and trying to find away to help yourself with holding teh same shit, you know you can't, but you gotta, for some fuckin reason, you gotta" ... he was too la-z to sign up so i posed it for him =)

P.S. If you "care" about the band as much as you claim to; instead of ripping their album offline, or from the back of a truck, support them and lay down the thirteen bucks for their CD at an actual store. Novel concept.

this song is MINE arrgghh how many times have i broke alone??? love this song!!!!!!!!!!!

This has got to be one of Korn's most underrated songs. I think many people don't talk about it because it doesn't sound as hard as their other songs, and that's a real shame because the lyrics to this song are some of the most powerful to yet!

This song touches on a very heavy topic, the thought of just ending it all, the feeling of "I could die right now and I wouldn't care". Suicide... It also touches on male depression, and the fact that society expects men to "act like a man". Whenever they show signs of weakness, or depression, the are immediately frowned upon, mucked at, ect. This, of course, can be represented by the line "Does this make me not a man?"

The line "leaving doesn't seem so strange" encapsulates PERFECTLY what it's like to have suicidal thoughts. For normal people, death is something scary and something they want to avoid, some don't even like to think about it for too long. Normal people might see suicidal people and ask themselves "how could anyone want to die?", and what those people fail to realize is that suicidal people probably thought the same thing too at one point. When you're depressed beyond what's normal, or when you find yourself in a shitty situation that seems to have no end, the thought of ending it suddenly starts to become comforting... The fact that they could just escape everything by pulling the trigger... It's a very scary hole that not many people can get out of, and that's exactly what this song represents, the thought of dying suddenly not seeming that scary anymore.

I first heard about this song when going through a break down, alone in my room (fitting I know). The lyrics felt so fucking real, it was as if my thoughts were pulled out of my brain and turned into a song. It legitimately touched my soul. This song helped me a lot, and for that it will always be one of my favorite Korn songs.

Disassociation

this is a great song... IMO, it's a LOT better than a lot of KoRn songs, no matter how different it sounds...

I really love this song, it's so different than everything korn has ever made. With here to stay, it is surely the best song of the album

It is my favourite korn song ever it is like korns different song of the album like linkin parks in the end and P.O.Ds thinking about forever they are just godley songs that the creators of should be worshiped for
