This is my favourite slipknot song. It reminds me of purity a bit (the story behind it)
I think the song starts after the climax - the murder.
"Relax...it's over"
The guy now has her all to himself because no one can take her away from him now that she is dead. (Now that she is dead, no one else will want to love her. He can)
"you belong to me"
When he ‘fills her mouth with dirt’ he could be burying her (as in purity - but purity was alive - and fictional) Or he could be bringing such a perfect icon down to his level. He is personalising her. Making her so that no one else will want her because she is his toy now - his love; his fantasy.
"I fill your mouth with dirt"
The line; "I take your second digit with me... Love...", may be referring to the wedding finger (second from the end) digit meaning finger. Because she now belongs to him and she can’t belong to anyone else - the wedding finger being the symbol. He is trapping her from being with some one else by killing her; burying her and removing the symbolic representation of partnership. Either literally removing the finger or just metaphorically speaking it emphasises the guys possessiveness need to feel that she will always be his.
The fascination with the dead body becomes intense (he might think she is still alive - like in Psycho?) ;
"You are...my first,
I can breath
I find you fascinating
You are...my favorite,
lay you down to sleep
It's all that I can do to stop...Love..."
Showing that he was driven to kill her for his long dying love for her - he realised she was unatainable. He can "breath" maybe showing that he shows no remorse for his actions.
Other lines might just represent the guys love and fascination growing.
The lines;
"So blue...so broken,
paper doll decays
I haven't left you yet
So cold... subversive,
tour eyes are full of bleach"
Might show his reactions to her in weeks to come. He now feels sorry for her; he might not be as attracted to her; his love may have weakend a bit because of her appearance. She was such a pretty icon now ‘broken’ and polluted like him. Paper doll decays is an analogy just going over the line above. She was a beautiful girl that he fantasised over now she is rotting and decaying and she isn’t what he expected of her now that she is twisted like him. He tells the corpse that he hasn’t left her yet - showing that he was tempted to leave her.
"so cold… subersive " shows that he thinks she has tricked him with her looks; she led him on hinting at a better life with undying love; he thinks of her as twisted and treacherous making him fall in love with her. He is blaming it on her.
Her eyes are full of harm. He is describing her as being evil.
The end of it shows that he prefers to lust after people and stalk them because he is living in a fantasy but as soon as he tries to make it reality the girl isn’t what he expected making her subversive for leading him on?
Anyway the song makes me horny - I don’t want to have a relationship like that - but I like twisted music.
