Given Corey's recent coming out about his sexual abuse when he was a child at the hands of someone older he trusted, this really gets an extra punch to it in terms of understanding his passion and rage. This song has gotten better with time but for all the "wrong" reasons.
When I saw Apocalyptica last year in Atlanta, I got to see this live for the first time since my abuser died. I had my entire childhood stolen from me after being abused from god only knows how young til the age of 14. While my abuser wasn't clergy, he was highly respected within his church. I didn't realize I was going to ball my eyes out while I was singing this at the top of my lungs. It was such a healing moment for me and the start of me healing from the inside out. I didn't know at the time that I needed that amount of healing and completely thought I was through all of it. How wrong I was. To Apocalyptica: You've always gotten me through the tough times. Thank you for making this song and allowing me to listen to it on repeat whenever I need to. You guys are amazing and you'll never truly know how much your music means to me. I cant wait til you guys come back to the states so I can do another 11 shows. ❤❤❤
Shitsticks. I'm so incredibly sorry you went through that. I hate even more that you're not alone in this. Far too many of us are survivors of abuse. I am so jealous that you got to see them live! One of these days, they'll be in my area and I will definitely see them!!! Keep on kickin all the arse and takin all the names!!!💙
@@nikkidimick947 please don't be sorry. It's nobody's fault but his and I can only do better for my kids. But you are correct, too many of us are survivors. Go see them though, even if you have to travel. I have traveled the entirety of the East Coast of the United States to see them live and have met tons of amazing people along the way in the last 15-ish years. It's always exhausting, but always a blast and worth the week long+ recovery period between arthritis from an old ankle injury and the post-show adrenaline letdown I go through every single time. When they come back to the States, I'll be going to the DC, Philadelphia, and Boston shows and I cannot wait!
@@nikkidimick947 even if you have to travel, go see them! They're absolutely amazing! They're never in my area so I've had to travel to all the shows I've been to. Closest was 3 hours away, farthest was from Central New York to GA and then to FL the very next day. When they come back next spring, I'm doing DC, Philly and Boston. I absolutely cannot wait!
"And the innocence you spoiled found a way to live." The whole song is amazing but that line is what hits me. Because that is what I take from this song: hope. For me, that is the greatest revenge to the people who hurt me, to show that it didn't break me. That I rose above it and I'm thriving despite what they did. My innocence may have been taken and my soul stained because of it but I am stronger than my trauma and I will keep moving forward and better my life because that is the ultimate win. You are better than what happened to you and you can find a way above it. ❤
This song hits me at my core. I had my childhood stolen from me when I was 10 by a church leader when he sexually assaulted me. The church knew he had a history of sexual abuse with his own child and hid it. Corey sings from his soul and I want to hug him and ask him who hurt him so bad.
It would be better if Ancient Humans never invented religion but instead focus their time on science, rationality, economy and social welfare Humans would have colonized the Solar System by 9,000 BCE!
@@tonka1434 the person who stole my innocence is on his death bed now and will soon answer for what he’s done. I take solace in the fact that he’s got a reserved seat in hell.
God. This song is so old now, but it still gives me chills-- it's such an incredible change to see victims of abuse portrayed as powerful and intimidating rather than pitiful broken birds. We're something that our abusers should be afraid of, living proof of their crimes, and that's... something VERY powerful to think about.
@vodkasvoice OMG, *Thank You* for this comment. It came when I needed to hear that most. Literally as I was trying to book trauma counseling, my abusers tried to break through the call. Because of my parents, I am permanently disabled due to spinal damage, head trauma, multiple fractures, and CPTSD. They were “respected deacons in their church.” Even had me exorcised, saying my pleas to others for help were pathological lies, and *they* were the true victims. Well, I’m not shutting up. “We are the evidence of their crimes” as Indian activist John Trudell once said. We own our rage, our pain, and our power. Much love to you, fellow survivor! ✊
@@melissawhite4620 Oh, I'm so glad to hear that my comment could help you! Yeah, exactly! We aren't wreckage, we're EVIDENCE, and in hurting us, they gave us the most powerful weapon against them. I hope you can find peace, comfort, and justice, friend.
They should fear us, because as hard as they tried to destroy us, we passed through that crucible, and they unintentionally made us into something unbreakable.
Well, when you have classically trained savant musicians that have been heading orchestral arrangements of adults since they were children, like Perttu, you tend to get absolutely insanely solid compositions. These guys understand musical theory better than people twice their age.
Nowhere else remotely appropriate to share this, so bear with me... I'm 34. At 14, I was in 8th grade at a Catholic boarding school in the middle of Indiana, and I had no friends save for one staff member, Mr Shannon. As I got older i got a weird impression of my memories of that time, and now I realize how badly I was groomed by him. He ended up getting fired for touching a kid, which my innocent young self associated with a fight, not a fondle. I was thinking about my time there, and remembered why he got fired and it all made sense, including the things he would say to me and how much time he spent around me. It's really disheartening, because I really thought he was a friend. I was 33 years old by the time I put everything together, and it really just hurts. Thanks for listening.
Thank you for sharing, so many of us have been thru this in our lives, it's not easy to be open and vocal about it. people need to know and learn so we can heal and NOT sweep it under a rug!!!
Right there with you 30 yrs old with 2 daughter's and facing the demons of my past....its hard to comprehend it's even harder to not let hate take control....stay strong protect the little ones!
Thank you for showing the children that have had trauma in life that they can have power over it. I love your strength Corey, you have my appreciation as an artist and strong child making his adult life even more stronger
When I saw Stone Sour uo close at the house of blues or eyes met and i thought I was gonna faint! The I caught Josh's guitar pic in my cleavage. Greatest memory ever!
I remember catchin corey and the knot in a small bar up in Iowa City. I mean small 200 capacity if that. Slipknot and mudvayne were just breaking. Mudvayne was handin out demo casette tapes with death blooms. I was early on. Didnt have a drivers license yet. My dad had to take me and a buddy. Ill never forget that night
“And the innocence you spoiled, found a way to live.” It has been 14 years and that line still gets me teary every time. Edit: Also it makes me so mad the censorship on “shit.” Interrupts the angst a lot.
This song helps with me not doing meth any more. It reminds me of a time before the addiction. Also during and after. But ultimately a sentimental song to empower my mental state.
Dude, words cannot describe how much I am proud of you. Meth addiction sucks. My mom was a meth and heroin user and let me tell you; it was hell living with her. I am so glad you found the power and courage to get sober. Rock on, man! 🤘🤘🤘🏻
I have always loved this song since came out, and one thing that has never changed for me is how I always think that Corey was really remembering something in the minute 1:41, like he did really had somebody in front of him that did him wrong. And Corey having a face of "now I got you" while the song says "do you remember?".
Comments like these always creep me out 🤨 stop reading to far into it & just enjoy the song 🙄 now you basically ruined this song for me 🤦🏻 everytime I hear it, my mind will immediately go to you talking about k i d r a p e 🤦🏻 & ruin it
One of my all time favorites! Awesome singer, awesome band, awesome video too! The whole "Worlds Collide" album is really great, but this song is the highlight.
This is a sad song but I get it. That SOB, if they hurt him, is awful. A child is messed up for the rest of their lives. I am so sorry Corey. No child should ever never go through that. They take away your innocence.
I love this song. When I was 19 my bf at the time sang me this song, without the music or anything to help him. I had never heard of before this. And here I am 17 years later still loving this song and the band. Thank you for such powerful songs ❤
Dirty little secret Dirty little lies Say your prayers and comb your hair Save your soul tonight Drift among the faithful Bury your desires Aberrations fill your head You need a place to hide And I am Do you remember me? The kid I used to be? Do you remember me? When your world comes crashing down I want to be there If God is looking down on me I'm not Jesus Jesus wasn't there You confess it all away But it's only shit to me If God is looking down on me I'm not Jesus I will not forgive No I won't No I won't I've thought you were a good man I've thought you talked to God You Hippocratic, messianic, child abusing, turned satanic Do you remember me?

Amazing song,great lyrics. And considering what Corey went through it's so special from him to be able to sing this song! He really is an amazing human being on another level from us all!
Powerful song which helps give a voice of healthy anger for survivors of child abuse. Has anyone else noticed he sings Hippocratic" in the lyrics "I've thought you were a good man I've thought you talked to God You hippocratic, messianic, child abusing, turned satanic"? Does he mean the abuser was a follower of Hippocrates the Greek philosopher or a medical doctor who pledges the Hippocratic oath? ...or does he mean hippocritical, but that word doesn't scan well? Even though hippocritic is not a word, it would still be more accurate than hippocratic, unless the abuser he refers to was a medical Doctor.
As an adult having to keep dealing with the trauma of my own blood paternal grandfather molesting them and knowing their own father kept making sure no justice will be served for me so they can keep receiving a check from them; this song hits so hard. Sure, forgiveness is suppose to be for those who have been wronged but, it doesn't subside the rage inside me. The rage only wants them to suffer as much, if not more, as I did. The suffering wants more than justice now; it wants vengeance.
And here I was just about to set the world on fire due to the fact that this video only has 30k views; then I came into the comment section. All is well again now
My cousins were abused by a Catholic priest in the early 70's. One cousin spent his life from just about 18 until he was 34 in the Kingston Penitentiary. His Dad did not believe him when he told him what the priest did. He ended up killing his Dad. They got a pension from the church for the abuse. He is gone now, but that is some of his story. This song acknowledges the rage that comes from helplessness.
@@amelb6247 My cousin was a wonderful man and father after he served his time. He died too young and more than paid for a crime that happened to him and his little brother and that he reacted to when he was 17.
I didn't listen to this song for a very long time because I was thinking this is blasphemy... But the stress, betrayal, mistreatment Brought me here I again And I realized this ain't blasphemy. It was wrong of me to avoid anger but then again anger saves me from depression instead of avoiding anger I should have utilized it instead.
@@corriedebeer799 I thought I remembered reading that the reason it was deleted and then re-uploaded was because some idiot was taking the video and claiming it as their own. Which is obviously wrong!
This is a song with a rather serious topic… but the first time I heard it I kept thinking it said “I’m not Jesus, Jesus wasn’t fat” and I can’t get it out of my head.
I'm 26 rite now, I was 7 when a older girl "took advantage" of me. I never realized she took my innocence from me until I got older. This song hits hard now that I understand the meaning.
My ex fiance would do it while I was asleep. And when I was about the same age as you were a teenage boy did it as well. You're not alone man. It can happen to us as well and I wish more people understood that
My friends older sisters best friend screwed my brains out all summer long, I was 14 she 26,ya hear me complaining? Shit man I got lucky, learned a lot that served me well in my adult years.
In headed to aftershock in October, slipknot will be there as well. Wonder if they will do a surprise song and play this?! Man I'd be 1 happy maggot! 🤘😎
As a MASSIVE Apocalyptica and Corey Taylor fan (and slipknot), I’d never been prouder to be Finnish when this came out. I was telling everyone to listen to this song. I was geeking out that Americans were LOVING Finnish rockers-and CELLO ROCK at that! Fuck yea, Apocalyptica… fuck yea.
“I've thought you were a good man I've thought you talked to God You Hippocratic, messianic, child abusing, turned satanic”! Gives me anger and chills everytime .
Seems unfair to Satan though. The guy never claimed to worship Satan only God, and the all powerful God did nothing to stop it despite it being done by a person claiming to represent him. Satan's getting a bad rap there
Anyone still listening to this hard hitting song in 2023/2024??
Always🤞🏻
Do you remember!!!
ofc :D
I listen to this all of the time. The feeling is just very relatable.

I just cried reading that and hearing this song after so many years.. it’s such a powerful yet painful song
I echo his feelings. When your own parents believe the abuser and your left alone with your pain, I feel every cord of this song.
I got that he wrote the song because of the abuse after the first few lines. Not very many good artists write things from a 3rd part perspective
@@sabiti5428 He never wrote this song

You hippocratic, messianic, child abusing, turned satanic"? Does he mean the abuser was a follower of Hippocrates the Greek philosopher or a medical doctor who pledges the Hippocratic oath? ...or does he mean hippocritical, but that word doesn't scan well? Even though hippocritic is not a word, it would still be more accurate than hippocratic, unless the abuser he refers to was a medical Doctor.
I think it was supposed to be "hypocritic."
Happy Easter
The idea,lyrics and theme of the song is beyond intriguing! 🔥
The artists always tell us what they know through their art. And they have been for decades.
As an adult having to keep dealing with the trauma of my own blood paternal grandfather molesting them and knowing their own father kept making sure no justice will be served for me so they can keep receiving a check from them; this song hits so hard. Sure, forgiveness is suppose to be for those who have been wronged but, it doesn't subside the rage inside me. The rage only wants them to suffer as much, if not more, as I did. The suffering wants more than justice now; it wants vengeance.
I feel you :(
Apocalyptica with Corey it's a Classical Music
The best collab I listened ever
Slipknot XIX
Another total classic 4 the our library.
This song didn't get the respect it deserves!
This just a Dam good song
And here I was just about to set the world on fire due to the fact that this video only has 30k views; then I came into the comment section. All is well again now
I love you, Corey 🖤
Ya habia olvidado la tremenda joya que era esta cancion!
My cousins were abused by a Catholic priest in the early 70's. One cousin spent his life from just about 18 until he was 34 in the Kingston Penitentiary. His Dad did not believe him when he told him what the priest did. He ended up killing his Dad. They got a pension from the church for the abuse. He is gone now, but that is some of his story. This song acknowledges the rage that comes from helplessness.
Wow what a story
@@amelb6247 My cousin was a wonderful man and father after he served his time. He died too young and more than paid for a crime that happened to him and his little brother and that he reacted to when he was 17.
@@KLoiswinning That’s so tragic. I’m sorry for your family. Thanks for sharing this story.
Saw them last night. They are amazing, and the guy they have singing for them is great, too. Will definitely see them again. 🤘🏻

@@con860 Live was Franky Perez. He really does a fantastic job with this song
@@Brianna.Crawford Yes, Franky Perez is great and really sounds like the different singers of the various songs, including this one.
I didn't listen to this song for a very long time because I was thinking this is blasphemy... But the stress, betrayal, mistreatment
Brought me here I again
And I realized this ain't blasphemy. It was wrong of me to avoid anger but then again anger saves me from depression instead of avoiding anger I should have utilized it instead.
i agree! i thought it was blasphemy too.

People have forgotten the voices of true legends.
It had many more views before RUclips deleted the old video, the band keeps on uploading it though
@@corriedebeer799 I thought I remembered reading that the reason it was deleted and then re-uploaded was because some idiot was taking the video and claiming it as their own. Which is obviously wrong!
If any song proves that God doesn’t exist, its this one.
I always loved this song!
This is a song with a rather serious topic… but the first time I heard it I kept thinking it said “I’m not Jesus, Jesus wasn’t fat” and I can’t get it out of my head.
😂
Forgot all about this song, never again!
Favorite song on that album
Espectacular!!
Love this song..love you cory
I'm 26 rite now, I was 7 when a older girl "took advantage" of me. I never realized she took my innocence from me until I got older. This song hits hard now that I understand the meaning.
💕😢
shit bro
My ex fiance would do it while I was asleep. And when I was about the same age as you were a teenage boy did it as well. You're not alone man. It can happen to us as well and I wish more people understood that
My friends older sisters best friend screwed my brains out all summer long, I was 14 she 26,ya hear me complaining? Shit man I got lucky, learned a lot that served me well in my adult years.
2023 hell yea still a top song on my playlist
❤️ Apocalyptica ❤️ Corey Taylor
In headed to aftershock in October, slipknot will be there as well. Wonder if they will do a surprise song and play this?! Man I'd be 1 happy maggot! 🤘😎
Simplemente arte
*"I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive"* ❤💪.
As a MASSIVE Apocalyptica and Corey Taylor fan (and slipknot), I’d never been prouder to be Finnish when this came out. I was telling everyone to listen to this song. I was geeking out that Americans were LOVING Finnish rockers-and CELLO ROCK at that! Fuck yea, Apocalyptica… fuck yea.
Yo corey dude love ya...this song is great ..
It reminds me of the native children bodies they found and discovering .. wicked tune guys cheers
That hoax? Especially in Canada. They never found a body but people still ended up burning down many churches
mucho con demasiado esta canción
Can relate to my ~core.
OH MY GOSH - this is JUST as amazing as the first day I heard it, such a great collaboration 🙏😍🤘🏼❤
“I've thought you were a good man
I've thought you talked to God
You Hippocratic, messianic, child abusing, turned satanic”! Gives me anger and chills everytime .
Seems unfair to Satan though. The guy never claimed to worship Satan only God, and the all powerful God did nothing to stop it despite it being done by a person claiming to represent him. Satan's getting a bad rap there
These collaboration are still gold
Is it just me or that was a reference to One-X album of tdg around 1:20?
