Yes, I'm sure people still listen to this song. You don't have to ask every year...

"You flirt with suicide, sometimes that's okay", that might be one if the best lines in any song, everyone has these thoughts in life you are normal and you are not alone.

So, you grow up, you look back, and you realize the intense importance why music was there that you had no idea why you loved it or needed it. I was a suburban 13 year old kid who dealt with pretty severe house hold abuse growing up and we constantly pretended to be this shining beacon on happy catholic family. When the doors were closed there was abuse far beyond even what this video depicts. I know there are a lot of haters for this particular genre of music, I think the great divide is that this music is aimed at an audience who relates heavily to the source material. Like it our not, the fact that there was a band out there that described how I felt inside of my own head was life saving. This may not be the most positive band in the world but they let the lost and hurt know that they are not alone. And knowing your not alone is a huge step in moving forward with your life. Really just realized I'm grateful Korn put it out there the way they did. So thanks Korn.

I’m disabled now and live in a nursing home. I just discovered Korn this year. I love Jonathan Davis and Korn.❤❤❤❤

"The song is about domestic abuse and that there are ways to get help. Whether it's telling someone or calling a help line, there are ways to get out of those situations. No one has to be treated like that." -Johnathan Davis

20 years ago I was 11 years old and homeless. My mom and I fled from my abusive father and were squatting in a studio apartment with my aunt. One day I was visiting my grandmother and watching MTV. This video came on and after a minute, my grandmother said "Honey, I can't watch this". She told me the child abuse depicted in this video reminded her too much of the abuse she endured as a foster child. "I used to get beaten like that with a belt. I can't look at this". We changed the channel. I was obsessed with Korn as a kid and Issues came out as my family fell apart. In that moment though, 11 year old me realized how child abuse stays with you for life. Jonathan Davis, I'm fairly sure, knows this too. My grandmother died in 2009, but I still think of her when I watch this. I'm now a legal assistant and have made something of my life despite the hell I lived through. I hope she'd be proud of me.

Ironic how lot of people think that songs / musicians like these makes younger people commit suicide but actually they save lives.

Korn has a special place in my heart. Generally speaking, I do not listen to this type of rock. Something about Korn's rhythm section and launch pad style guitar loops gives it a hip hop vibe. The tonal choices compliment each other well, and ofc the front man sings with distinction. I also find the old mastering more digestible than the over produced stuff today. I'm high af, gonna stop talking now.

The critics of the 90s and early 2000s heard this music for 10 seconds and only heard anger and violence. The message is more emotionally powerful than any other music ive found. KoRn for life

Music is therapy

As a victim of domestic abuse as a kid, listening to this now really sinks in and the lyrics claw deep into me and it makes me appreciate that there are people that care and that you can get help and possibly there’s hope

Idc what nobody says korn has really made some phenomenal music this is definitely a certified classic and my favorite song by them 😊🐐

I'm literally crying about how beautiful this is

Every time I listen to Korn I cry a little bit while feeling an adrenaline rush into my body, all those feelings I had back in my childhood come back to remind me how far I am from that, people heard the word suicide in a song and thought they were the cause of people ending themselves without knowing that many times, these songs, saved many of us from some very dark days. I was not abused by my parents but I suffered severe bullying at school for years, and screaming to this lyrics in my room or listening to them on my headphones to scape reality for a minute got me through all of that. Thank you!

Jonathan didn't deserve to go through so much pain when he was younger and the pain he sometimes experiences nowadays he doesn't deserve too!! He saved so many lives...

Words can’t describe the artistry and natural sound of this band… Whether you’re a fan or not, it is truly unlike any other musical chemistry. They single-handedly created their own genre and listening back to it over 20 years later it has truly become timeless.. even in our modern day it’s still ahead of our time

2:57 to 3:17 that 20 seconds changed everything on how I see & hear music. respect for KoRn forever.

I was getting beaten every day from August 24th 2008 when I was adopted until I moved out in 2017 and the only thing that kept me from killing myself was going to a field and listening to music. I felt like I wasn't the only one there and everything hurt less. I love you Korn. You did so much for me. You saved my life.

Complete lyrics: Hey I'm feeling tired My time is gone today You flirt with suicide Sometimes that's ok Hear what others say I'm here standing hollow Falling away from me Falling away from me Day is here fading That's when I would say I flirt with suicide Sometimes kill the pain I can always say 'It's gonna be better tomorrow' Falling away from me Falling away from me Beating me down Beating me beating me Down, down Into the ground Screaming so sound Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground It's spinning round and round (Falling away from me) It's lost and can't be found (Falling away from me) It's spinning round and round (Falling away from me) So down Beating me down Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground Screaming so sound Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground Pressing me, they won't go away So I pray, go away It's falling away from me Beating me down Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground Screaming so sound Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground

🖤🖤Been here since 1999 🖤🖤This video has always given me Hellraiser movie vibes 🖤🖤 Without a doubt one of the best bands of all time! 🖤🖤

Gonna introduce my grandkids to Korn this spring break. I think they're gonna love 'em

I was going through this when this song came out. After a very abusive upbringing, I got into an abusive relationship. This song spoke to me in a deep way. It helped me to actually focus my immense rage into fuel. I left. Took our boys and bought a new house, moved up in my job and they are happy, well adjusted men. Not going to lie, I still have a hidden place with a lot of rage...Then I listen to songs like this and rock out, it makes me feel better. Love to every survivor of any abuse.

“I can’t always say, it’s gonna be better tomorrow” is actually deep

Here I am 28 years old. Been through a very unhealthy amount of stress and completely changed my life for the better. Music is one of the keys to coping stress.

How could anyone who takes music seriously say that Fieldy's bass tone is bad? That percussive tone is so perfect in the context of Korn's music and it's so rare to hear a bass guitar punching through like this in a metal mix.

I'm 37 yrs old been listening to korn since my teens, and when I'm on a rocking chair I'll still be rocking to korn

These Guys ruled. I’m glad that I was 11 in ‘99. Nu Metal, WWF attitude and being with my best friends. Miss you guys.

When the boy knocks on the window and she looks back, you see an empty room, gets me everytime. I'm no longer alone but I'll never forget what it's like, to be alone.

何百回、何千回聴いても心に突き刺さる。

It's crazy reading the comments and seeing all the stories of the people this band has touched and helped but also sad that the only other thing we all have in common is some kind of trauma. We all feel alone when dealing with the darkness but bands like Korn help us see the light and that we aren't alone, there are others out there that know the pain and are willing to listen and to help.

I call this a masterpiece. Really the 90s and 2000s are just awesome.

Today marks a year since my mom graduated to Heaven.. this was 1 of her favorite songs & I'm rattling the apartment walls as I type this. Not a day has passed that I haven't thought of her...R.I.P.🏴.. ✔️💯🎵⚕️🔥🤘

I’m addicted to kornography

My older brother committed suicide yesterday, at age 31. as a teen he loved Korn, Linkin Park, Pantera, etc. I would sit in his room listening to him jam out on guitar for hours. Simpler times. We didn't have a great life at home but he was always there for me and made things better, he was a good influence on me. I'll never know why he did it but listening to these songs helps me get through it a little bit. In the past 6 months I've been on meth and heroin, and I just wasn't there for my family when I should have, maybe I could've done something to help him. We didn't get to celebrate thanksgiving with him, say goodbye, or have one last jam together, it's like he just disappeared.

When this song released I was living in an abusive home. KoRn helped me deal with that a lot. Knowing I wasn't alone probably saved me from a mentally dark place. I would just get lost in the music and listened to it on repeat almost everyday.

Я только недавно открыл для себя эту группу, звучит очень мощно.

I may not be a victim of any physical abuse but, I'm still facing mental abuse. Thank you Korn for being here for me.

hands down of my favorite korn songs ever, such a powerful song and still sounds better than 75% of music today

We don't look for old songs, we look for the memories they carry. *KOЯN FOR LIFE*

One thing funny about these songs is that 20 years ago you taught how cool they are sounding but as you get older you actually start to understand the meaning and the message behind it....parents often told us how we are listening to "random trash" but only if they understood how big of a meaning they had and how many kids and people could confide in these songs, actually being understood. Metal and especially nu-metal really made us understand our pain and makes us grow into better people we are today. I just hope one day these bands will understand even slightly how much they helped us, will forever be grateful for them. ❤

My mom is 72 years old and Love's Korn she bangs her head with the best of them. ROCK ON MAMA

No matter how many times I listen to this song, it never, ever gets old. I always want to listen to it over, and over, and over again.

Jon's vocals in this song gives me chills 🤘🤘

Remek hangzásvilág a Korntól. A gitár a dob fantasztikus. A dal egyedi, Mestermű a javából.

Lyrics🤘 Hey, I'm feeling tired My time has gone today You flirt with suicide Sometimes that's okay Do what others say I'm here standing hollow Falling away from me Falling away from me Day is here fading That's when I'm insane I flirt with suicide Sometimes kill the pain I can't always say "It's gonna be better tomorrow" Falling away from me Falling away from me Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming so sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Falling away from me It's spinning round and round Falling away from me It's lost and can't be found Falling away from me It's spinning round and round Falling away from me Throw it down Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming so sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Twisting me! They won't go away! So I pray! Go away! Life's falling away from me It's falling away from me Life's falling away from me Fuck! Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming so sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming so sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground!

This music got me through a difficult time in my life back in the 90’s. Korn, Nirvana, Tool…. all this music still speaks to me today. Sometimes it’s hard to see where you’re going when you forget where you been. Even at 45 I still have these tracks in my playlist……

How fucking awesome would it be to have Korn show up in your room like that?

See you in Edmonton so excited to go see y’all there

I'm 50 years old. My sister committed suicide 5 years ago via heroin. It's amazing I'm still alive from my past (parental abuse, molestation, bullying, etc). Tonight I'm having "one of my nights." Thankfully I don't own a gun when these times hit. All this is a result of my parents' abuse and choice to not care what happened to Deb and I. At 50 years old it still has scars that "scream" sometimes. Korn is easily one of my favorite bands because their music so embodies / voices many of the feelings I still have, even today. Childhood abuse, from parents, parent's friends, and peers, is for life. It never leaves. Thanks Jonathan and team for making music that can at least express what I feel sometimes.

Я благодарен группе Korn за то, что они давали мне надежду на жизнь, я не знаю английского языка но их песни давали мне надежду, сейчас во взрослом возрасте узнал смысл этих песен и ужаснулся, они отзеркаливают моё прошлое, спасибо за то, что вы сделали.

The year was 1999......I can’t put into words how good life was......I was 14.....the music was fucking amazing.......WWF was fucking amazing.......thinking back I think we took how good them years was for granted!......Iam 35 writing this in quarantine lockdown from the UK. Appreciate every minute you have people! ✌🏻

Korn rocks 🧑‍🎤🧑‍🎤🧑‍🎤

Future 2025-ers, and onwards. Yes we are here, Korn is a timeless asset to music history. As long as it’s available there will be fans

Saw these guys last night, best night of my fuckin life

Hey, I'm feeling tired My time has gone today You flirt with suicide Sometimes that's okay Do what others say I'm here standing hollow Falling away from me Falling away from me Day is here fading That's when I'm insane I flirt with suicide Sometimes kill the pain I can't always say "It's gonna be better tomorrow" Falling away from me Falling away from me Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming some sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Falling away from me It's spinning round and round Falling away from me It's lost and can't be found Falling away from me It's spinning round and round Falling away from me Throw it down Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming some sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Twisting me! They won't go away! So I pray! Go away!

Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Beating me down! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground! Screaming some sound! Beating me, beating me Down, down Into the ground!

I’m here every year for Korn!!!

Korn saved me in my teens... went through extremely difficult things, now I´m 34 and survived my own demons. I really want to see them again, if they came back to Ecuador better yet

Korn helped me in my 20s and now helps me with my anxiety during my 40s.

I was in primary school with my brother who was 3 years younger than me..I will never forget the day my mum fell over when walking us to school. She told us to leave her and walk the rest of the way because she said she would be fine. That day, another family member came to pick us up from school, not our mum. Later on that night, our dad who returned from work grabbed us from our grandparents place and drove to the hospital where our mum ended up going after her fall (we had no idea). It was late at night and remember so vividly leaving the hospital with my brother and asking "Dad, where is mum? Isn't she coming home with us?", he replies "No, mum is staying at the hospital tonight". My brother and I balled our eyes out so hard that I remember struggling to breath. This was the start of my brother and I traveling back and fourth from our grandparents place every week while dad worked full time in the city and mum was in hospital for a long period of time. This was also the continuation and manifestation of our dad being abusive. Abusive to my brother and I. Abusive to my mother and her family. He was always an abusive psycho but got worse after my mum's injury. My brother and I used to sleep in my aunties small bedroom on the floor mattress. She was a teen and had all these band posters covering her walls and door. Marylin manson, Blink182, Limp Bizkit and many others. Most memorable was the huge Korn poster she had on the back of her door (the one with them on 2 bikes and 2 dogs). She would blast Korn all day long and play their music videos. Like my aunty, a few of my uncles listened to them too. Korn ended being a huge part of my childhood which I grew up liking and listening to their music in my own time. Our dad continued to abuse us years later. When I got to my teens, I was extremely emo and suicidal. High school was a nightmare because I couldn't focus on anything. I had to be a carer for my paraplegic bed bound mum at home, do all the house chores and look after my little brother (who was a little shit at the time) all the while being abused by my father. I fucking hated my life. I was terrified of my father. I rebelled against everything that I was told to do because all I wanted was a normal life at home and school but couldn't have that. No one at school could understand what I was going through. I felt alone. My mum was an angel btw. The sweetest person you could ever meet. She had nurses coming to the house in the mornings to help her shower etc........our monster of a father started to resent the nurses and didn't want their help anymore (for whatever fucked up reason). He was manipulative and abusive towards my mum daily. Trying to brainwash her into pushing her only family away and denying any help from the government. Life at home was hell. I remember when I would lock myself in my dark room, cry and scream into my pillow and would think about cutting myself. I was always too pussy to cut so instead I would pierce my arm with needles. It wasn't as bloody but it gave me the feeling of pain, some kind of relieving pain. Whenever I thought about ending it all, I would listen to a Korn CD my uncle bought me. Korn was my outlet. My friends. The friends that were there for me at my darkest moments. They made me feel...not so alone. They were an outlet for me when I felt so angry. They were there for me when no one else was because nobody understood. It's been about 11 years since I moved out of home to get away from the abusive psycho and Korn is still a huge part of my life. They're not just my favorite band but I see them as my angels who saved my life. I listen to them when I feel sad, I listen to them when I feel angry, I listen to them when I wanna rock out, I listen to them when I'm getting ready and wanna feel bad ass. They're my feel good music. I love them so much and want to thank them from the bottom of my heart and soul for being there. For being there for me when I needed someone most. Thank you Korn. You saved my life.

Korn got me through some fucked up times as a teenager.. 25years ago. Only therapy I needed 🖤

I miss 90's Korn so bad...

I'm 15 and I’ve just discovered this song from this band. I’ve always heard of it but never really cared. Now I do. I discovered this song during my ELA class, and I didn’t even finish doing my work because I just played the song on loop. I thank you KoRn for making such beautiful and relatable song.

Used to headbang to this when i was younger but now hearing it, it sent tears running down. Feeling nostalgic and remembering how hard it was back in the days, glad i listened to this song and others by Korn. We need to help people out there..

25 years later and this is still a banger!

I wish more people had taste in music like this

I cannot imagine the pain people have been through physically which is horrible... the world is cruel sometimes but everyone in the comments are all becons of hope and light because YOU are all still here, and i hope if you are reading this you are all loved by someone you just have to find your people ❤🙏

If you're still listening to this masterpiece, you've a good taste in music. KoЯn never let me down.

There are bands that are real..actually get the ability to become famous while pushing who they really are..Korn is one of those because their sound was and is so unique!!..not only does Jonathan Davis sing his feelings but they matched the music to the emotional feelings..fkn awsome!!

Almost 20 years later and my arms are still full of goosebumps. Such an unforgettable track

I was 9 when this song was released and I remember being so in awe by the music video after seeing it on The Box. I was so happy when her friends saved her. The message of the lyrics, and everything about this music video just impacts you differently as an adult. Thank you to KoRn for bringing awareness to such a very important topic.

This song made me confirm that metal is the best musical genre that exists

I wonder why this songs always been in my life

I remember being a teenager when this song came out. Korn was this eerie, forbidden music. You'd hear snippets of songs and be bewildered and ensorcelled. The music box chimes of the melody coupled with the visceral passion of the vocals. I didn't know what to think.

Can we bring this back? This music? This feeling? This vibe. The world needs more of this. *KoЯn FOR LIFE*

Tho I was not a victim of abuse, I absolutely feel the pain behind the lyrics and the people who identifiy with it. To create such strong music it's legendary. This band is legendary such as it's songs. Still, listening Korn every single day of my life makes me a bit more happy considering the twisted reality we are forced to live.

i just cried of how beautiful this song is.

its been a long time since I've needed Korn in my life.. I found this empowering once, and I am forever grateful to Korn for being there for those who have no one...

Dear korn, if you see this its special and deep, I have many struggles in my life with my best friend dieing and my parents fighting everyday after a bad day at school, then I get bullied and everything, but you music has always helped me in everything and I thank you for thay

I remember seeing this on MTV for the first time, back when MTV was actually cool.

Very emotional song wow I hate child abuse this song speaks loudly 😢

Korn makes that everyone feels great 💓

I'm 40 years old this song never gets old to me.

This band and this song man. That era was amazing. I still remember sitting in my room deciding what cover album to get when it came out. Time fuckin flies

This song saved so many lives 🖤🤘🏽

This song has aged like wine..I heard it for the first time at 12 years old..and 20 years later I still turn it on all the time!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

i was physically and mentally abused by my mother as a child. she would kick me on the ground , beat me and tell terrible things to me. i was 9 when this video came out, they were divorced finally, i stayed with my dad and he would always turn off the tv when this came on, because of the graphic content, yet i just wanted to watch it and listen to it because it was somehow helping me altho i didn't quite understand at that age why exactly. i would just tell him that the "boys are helping the girl escape from the bad man and she will stay with her friends now!" but as i was growing it made all the sense. korn is helping all of us escape the bad shit in our head/lifes. it's one of my favourite songs from them. i'm 28 and to this day i still can't stand when someone yells at me or even slightly raises their voice , because i get a panick attack and i have to cover my ears. louder steps trigger me too because there is an instant fear of something bad happening to me. depression and anxiety are on and off.. i guess it's all the unsolved shit inside me. but to get to the point: i tear up every now and then because i just am so grateful for korn, for growing up with them, they helped me through the toughest periods of my life and their music just simply understands so fucking much. it makes us who are lost at life feel more at ease and acknowledged. i hope they know how many lives they helped and saved through their music. certainly mine. i wish i could return what they did for me. forever thankful. ❤ to everyone who went through shit, stay strong, stay alive. you're stronger than all that happened.

First time listening to korn and this is as far the best one I have heard

Even tho my mom said this was too agressive for her my dad like it so much, I still listen to this day 24/7 This is my most fav rock song right now

This music video and just the song in general is so powerful. As a kid who suffered from child abuse this almost made me cry. It’s so powerful and displays how bad of a situation some people are in

Im 35 and still listening. This music gives me strength to live

Yo en los 2000 esperando que dieran este video en mtv exelente saludos desde Venezuela

Each of the songs touches my heart, and fills me with nostalgia. It's more than music, it's art.

The South Park episode 'Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery' served as the world premiere of this song which went on to become one of the band's most popular songs ever recorded. Now you know!

This has aged weirdly well. I came here for a nostalgia chuckle and was surprised by how actually good it is.

Born 1986. Used to "watch" this on my ps1. Just spittin visuals & lyrics before walking to my bus stop a mile away. Wouldn't trade it for a god damn thang

Shows how music saves and how the rock community can band together like no other. Yes the only reason I miss my Highschool days

This music video speaks to a generation of suppressed and depressed kids. Metal has always been my safe haven. I'm a hip hop head too, but the messages in metal and rock are just as powerful

Probably my favorite Korn song along with Shoots and Ladders

With all stress i feel about this world this song gives me cills 😢

The song that set me on my musical path in life. Every time I listen to this song it brings me back to 1999. This band has helped me during my darkest times, and I am forever grateful. I will always love this song, album, music video, and band. Thank you Korn!
