Lyrics:
Hold your head up
You are not the victim
I’m not sure you will make the cut
I think you’ve lost the drive and will to win
Your resistance
Prophetic self-destruction
Creates the distance
Every time you get closer to someone
Mirror
There’s poison in my head and I don’t know what to do
The hole’s too deep for the drugs to get me through
Oh the city created my fears and took my mind
Oh Mirror
Give me back my time
Face your destiny
It was always only ever you and me
We can be anything we want to be
Make shit up and live it completely
I am alive, I am alive
Oh say it to yourself, say it to yourself, oh
Why do we need to function?
Why do we need to fit into this hell?
#IAMX #THEXID #FAULTLINES1
I HAVE RECENTLY QUESTIONED THE VALUE OF A VISUAL FOR A SONG DUE TO THE INSANE SPEED AND ATTENTION ISSUES OF THE MODERN WORLD.
I DECIDED IT'S STILL WORTH THE ENERGY.
I AM HUMBLED THAT, HERE AT IAMX HQ EVERYONE IS FULLY PRESENT, DEDICATED AND INVESTED IN SERVING THIS ART AND AUTHENTICALLY LIVING AN ALTERNATIVE LIFE IN MENTAL AND PHYSICAL FREEDOM.
THIS VIDEO IS A DOCUMENT OF THAT FREEDOM.
THE X ID IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A MAJOR PART OF MY PERSONALITY. IT IS MY BRUTAL, PROVOCATIVE GENDER BENDING SCREAMING INNER DEMON, MY MAGNETIC SWAGGERING HEDONISTIC EGO, THE DEEPEST DARKEST BEAUTIFUL ME WHICH I AM ABLE TO LIVE OUT THROUGH THIS MUSIC. ON STAGE, IN VIDEOS, THROUGH MY COMMUNITY.
OVER TIME I HAVE LEARNED TO EMBRACE, INHABIT AND WIELD THIS X ID. WITHOUT HESITATION OR GUILT.
AND I SEE IT AS MY DUTY TO ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO EMBODY AND EXPRESS WHO THEY ARE.
I'M NOT GOING TO LAYOUT A DRONEY CONCEPT OR LIE THERES A STORY FOR THIS VIDEO. IT IS JUST US, THIS GROWING X COLLECTIVE HAVING VISCERAL FUN IN THE BOUNDLESS BEAUTY OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SUPERBLOOM.
ENJOY THE EYE CANDY.

You are a gift to us! The Muses smile upon you Master!
It's absolutely stunning. Thank you for being and showing your true self. 🖤
The visuals make it all complete in my opinion, please don't change a thing. The style has always been awesome. Keep doing what you're doing!
I love that you all want to put together a visual feast to accompany the song. The span of art is simply so beautiful. It's also amazing to see the feelings played out and also seeing you guys feel free within the music. And yes, you definitely inspire and give me confidence to keep striving to be my true self. Love to all of you! ❤
This makes me happy. 🖤
Крис снова сошёл с ума))) Браво, маэстро!
идеальное описание
Thanks
nice to see that chris is still making music. I've been listening to him for 12 years,starting with clip bernadette
Same, around 12 years aswell I think, or even longer.
OH MY GOD FINALLY, I'M SURE THE WAIT IS GOING TO BE WORTH IT, THE VISUALS LOOK COOL AS HECK.
It was more than worth it.
Gets better each time I listen!!! I can’t believe I’ve listened to y’all since I was a teen (13 years!?!) and it’s still coming!! Amazing 🖤
Finally!!!! Hello from Ukraine ) Your music is something unbelievable...
Есть время музыку слушать?
@@ЛолЛил-в3ф авжеж є ;) чого б ні
черговий підарас. Голосу нема. Виглядає як нарік. Якщо б не труси в кліпі дивитися нічого.

💛💙😊
i needed this wild, fever-dream/acid trip artistic expression in my life. it's been really dark, so this burst of color and freedom is so welcomed. thank you
The more I listen to this album the more I discover the beauty of each song. Thank you for making my heart happy every time the needle touches the vinyl groove 🖤 one love 🖤
Я не знаю, как он это делает, но его клипы хочется пересматривать, а музыку - переслушивать. Просто магия какая-то.
Видеоряд и цветокоррекция в клипе - это эстетическое сумасшествие.
So addicted to this song
THis is about to be the only thing I listen to for the rest of the month.
I'm 32 and I'm a huge fan of all kinds of music but I'm feeling feelings I haven't had in years when I listen to your music. It's like I'm hearing music for the first time! You are a poet and a mastermind!! My God the way you express emotion in these songs my God again!!
After 10 years of distance, here i come back to the beautiful IAMX world. Thank you for being there, Chris. You show us what music really is. ❣️
You lost a lot of good music. He still making BOPs.
Just when the world feels dark and miserable these beautiful freaks arrive in full glorious colour and shower us with sexy insanity.
Oh wow, I'm amazed to the core. I was touched by this track, the text is very big and makes sense to me. I will definitely listen to it very often and can't wait for the rest! I'm excited!
New music from IAM{X} on the way!
I watched this one several times and it get's me through all the feels. Sometimes it's hilarious, sometimes frightening, instilling passion, sadness. I must say in the end it always hurts. It kind of questions if I'm in the right place. Which is a good thing, I suppose. My main thought during this time is "Why do we need to function? Why do we need to fit into this hell?" The answers are dark and nothing will soothe me. Thank you for being a shining light in this monotonous machine.
I fell in love with the music of late Sneaker Pimps and early IAMX. Truly. I love the emotion and the dark synths. Just as with many creators who embrace the dark side of mental anguish and the gnarly, gritty analogue world of synths and "industrial" vibes, the music speaks to me but as soon as the visual aspect is introduced, I'm left wondering if I've somehow misconstrued the ethos. I'm probably better off avoiding the visual content from now on. It's not aimed at me. I love the music.
Congratulations to you on this great new release! The "I'm alive!" part really hits with particular emotional force, and the voice just soars! I also definitely liked in the intro instrumental music.
IAMX is true art. x
Absolutely beautiful and I bet it's going to be an insane banger in a live setting.
The anticipation of a new IAMX record is such an awesome feeling.
I'm so fucking ecstatic.
I saw them last night. It was INSANE. ❤️🔥
Chris doesn't seem to age. Awesome song!
LOVE THE NEW SONG AND THE VIDEO :) - THE X ID - CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR IT LIVE IN KÖLN, GERMANY
Tak!
Thank u CC & Janine, u guys rock ❤❤
Как всегда невероятно ! Спасибо
Cant wait for this new album. Amazing stuff, Dark and Energetic along with etherial lyrics.
This gets deeper and more full of meaning each time I watch it with attention to the lyrics, and on a foundation of interpreting the wrestling women (no color) as the mirror and the poison he sees in his reflection. Sure, they are moving erotically, but they _look_ angry and scary and frightening. Then, the two (in color) hold him on a leash, underfoot, and holding him back. The scene where he gazes up at the one woman's vag with... what is that look on his face? A trepidation? Watching an accident just about to happen? Or is it an awe? This is where I came from. Is this a song about breaking free from narcissism and self-absorption? "Oh Mirror! Give me back my time! We can be anything we want to be. I AM ALIVE! I AM ALIVE!".... "Say it to yourself!" i.e. I am not what I see in the mirror, or don't have to be that.
IAMX always pulls up clutch when my heart needs it the most ❤️
Yes. Yes. Yes. You are in tune Chris. I hope to preform something with you one day. My soul is in your frequency.
So effing good.
IAMX never disappoints
This!
Hail these perverted pleasures
These sinful delights
The depraved moments
That see us through the nights.
Can't wait for the new album.
I LOVE THIS SONGGGG
OMG! After watching this and checking my heart again, I don't know if it's beating. I really loved this music video. 🥰 Kisses from Brazil.

I do not know how he does it - he is my drug. any album always touches and brings me to another "world"... thxxx for all - and do not stop - and please do not stop to do vinyl and CD...digital is nice for being on the way (high res and high res player of course ^^) - but your physical albums are gifts for the life... and I know and own a lot of music....Chris is simply TOP of the TOP - THXXXXXXXXXXX

Me and my Mom, we Love your Work!! ThankU so much!❤
I fucking adore you
I hope your hole goes away, it's been there for too long and it's super sad.
This. I’ve been a fan of IAMX since my teens, and even though I can love certain of his songs and expression, the very palpable hollow in his being disturbs me to be around or look at very long. It’s in his eyes, face, lyrics, energy. This is coming from someone not easily disturbed and no stranger to the darkness. He’s always seemed a bit narcissistic as well. Something is very “off” with this person. I hope peace and contentment for IAMX one day. Still, I guess we can say
Glory to the pain that resulted in art that has resonated for millions of us. I still think it’s a triumphant thing worthy of respect to have the kind of hollow Chris has and be able to turn it out into prolific creativity.
Woweeeeeeeeeeee! Just simply amazing and incredibly brilliant! Love it! 🖤🐈⬛🖤🦇🖤
Да, песня реально становится лучше с каждым прослушиванием.
Но припев меня сразу покорил.
I cannot wait to hear what else you have in store for us!!!
That is the sound. That is the way. That is why I’m hear iamx
love .
Fucking amazing
YESSSSSS!
Bomb as always :)
Damn, it was worth staying up until the middle of the night to see this! Beautiful and sooo hot. I love the voice, I love the music, I love the visuals. The whole video is a turn on for me. 🖤
I am a long-time fan of IAMX and it was this video/track that I did not like, I will describe the reasons below.
1 - the video is similar to "surrender", but unlike it does not have an action-filled plot, the same thing happens in the frame, it's boring to watch. We have already seen "surrender", "quiet the mind", which shine.
2 - the sound feels too simple, like a pop song that we've heard too many. Having lost the melodic variety, the listener could concentrate on the vocals, but will not be able to because of the effect imposed on the vocals at 2:14.
As a result, I would prefer any earlier iamx track (including tracks with live performance) to this one. But maybe it will feel better as part of an album or live performance.
Late disclaimer: I don't want to offend the performer or be annoying, I'm just describing my own feelings.
Полностью с Вами согласна, прям описали мои ощущения от просмотренного.
YOU, YOU ARE PURE ARTISTIC BRILLIANCE. Thankyou for feeding my soul with this delicious creation. IAMX cult forever
Chris Porner version 2.0
God this song is addicting, lyrics hit harder too.
X is the perfect drug 💕
You can always count on Chris 🖤
How many times did you watch it?
Yes.
Это так потрясающе и неожиданно видеоряд нереальный, и это сочетание цветов, фактур, текстур.. ах.. эстетика чем-то напомнила мне фильм "Аннигиляция" 🖤🤍💓🖤💓🤍💗 Недавно переслушивала старые альбомы IAMX , на которых я буквально росла, знатно кайфанула ну и прослезилась. И тут выходит новый невероятно крутой трек, который попал в настроение, не знаю, конечно о чём он дословно, но меня очень сильно тронул. Сейчас не самый лучший период моей жизни, и многие строки откликнулись так сказать, болью, борьбой и надеждой на светлое будущее.
I can’t wait to see you all perform at El Corazon in June! Much love to you from the Pacific Northwest! ❤
Chris is wonderful!! thank you from the bottom of my heart for always gladdening my soul. It is an honor for us to be here with you, to share all these fantastic and intriguing emotions and to be part of this fabulous cult. THE X ID is really very overwhelming, mysterious and makes me curious more and more, I can't wait to hear it, the title is perfect, I already know it will be fabulous and special like you. Unfortunately I don't know if I will be able to participate in the live broadcast because it will be two in the morning with us, but I hope in case I can still watch the video the next morning. i love you iamx!!❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Ahhhh soooo good!! Love the coloring and just watching you all live your best life! 😝
"There's poison in my head
And I don't know what to do
The hole's too deep
For the drugs to get me trough
Oh, the city created my fears
And took my mind
Oh, mirror
Give me back my time"
.... Fuck!!!!
This is fantastic
Черговий шедевр🔥🔥🔥🖤
Як приємно бачити в коментах брата українця)

The song Thanatos and Disciple as well s this one literally give me shivers.. Big thank you!! I truly hope ill will be able to see you one day in my country - ill be in the first line on the concert!
No way, I'm so excited! I love IAMX music, can't wait for the release!!!
So amazing!! Can't wait for the new album, IAMX is pure beauty. Love to all fans, Chris and his team!
Yessssss...🌌
Great song! Can't wait to see you live for about the sixth time. Must see live if you get the chance people
Oh, the scenery reminds me of the 'I Come With Knives' video 😊
So excited to see this live
A+ on the eye candy
You somehow never miss.
I sometimes get scared whenever it's time for you guys to release new music, in the chance that it might not up-to-par to your phenomenal past albums, but it's raw and amazingly constructed every. single. time. I absolutely cannot wait for what else in store :") ❣️
I love uuu. I can relate to the struggle in this song sm
the colours.
awesome
d e l i c i o u s
You’re awesome Chris. See you in the Germany gigs glammed up and glorious😻
Sublime, both visually and auditorily ❤🔥 The lyrics speak to my heart like they were written for me in this present moment - thank you so much for being and continuing to birth these fantastically authentic works of art! ❤❤❤
At Last some authentic decent poetry in actikn, some celestial sounds here in 3d, food for the SOUL in this wasteland of empty trash muzak MASQUERADING as sincere art.
Thankyou 🐐❤ 🐐❤ 🐐❤
