  • Maxi thought this song was abt self harm for a long ass time tbh
  • Keith H. from VenturaThis is one of Korn's best songs ever. But this sanitized version sucks! It's "I f--ken hate you" and "shut up 'fore I f--k you up". Never even heard this primary school version before.
  • Zero from The Abyss, NjThis song is simple, most of it is played only on the low B-String.
  • Francesca from Bath, United Kingdomrecently I've just been wanting to kill everyone at work, and I sit there on my checkout, smiling and doing my job as I daydream about having a baseball bat with this song playing over the PA system....

  • Kelsey from Rustburg, VaYo Daniel! No one is forgetting what its about... You're the one who has no frickin clue what its about. obviously you liv in a perfect little world where nothing goes wrong. Well the rest of us live in the real world where we get hurt, and we don't get mad. We get even.
