| Well, the Purity factor may mean innocence. I think that you're right Mr. Justanotherkydd (my brother). I love this song. Too bad it was removed off the album. | |

| Apparently, the whole story was fake, but this is what Corey had to say about it: "I still think its real. See the thing whether it's true or not, it's a real story, that we read about, that fucked our whole world up. Can you imagine a girl being buried in a box and having all this lecherous bullshit drip down on her from this guy? and thinking that there is hope, because this kid is taking some bizarre note to this guy he doesn't even know- thinking that you are holding on to the shirt of hope and you wake up and you're dead you're buried in mud -they find the note about a week later shoved in a library book for gods sakes -it just hurts your head- it's a case of what is good and bad in people- the box alone is reason enough to be like, 'I cant stand to be fucking human'- how can someone fucking do this to somebody? What is inside of us that is so fucking wrong? he had written quotes from Edgar Allen Poe and lots of fucked up things on the box" - Corey Taylor | |

| Great song! probably my favorite SlipKnoT song ever. i think it shows everything that Slipknot is capable of - great lyrics, awesome riffs, everything. plus this song has a lot of background behind it, fucking awesome. | |

| they have a couple songs on this crime stuff, like the prosthetics song about the guy killing women and all that in the '60s. it makes for good songs, though. | |

| one more point to back up my theory- purity is a later version of despise, which i believe was written before everything with purity knight; those lyrics have their own meaning, which later also became purity's story. | |
