	corey taylor has a big penis

No Picture Jay Dizzle Wanna Be	#2 by Jay Dizzle holden at Mar 6, 2006 at 9:29 PM EST
	this song is reacting to all of the shit fed to slipknot! prelude is just before it and the transition between the NOOOOO and the insane drums flows perfectly. prelude is the blister and then this is them being pissed off about it. (bones in the water and dust in my lungs!!!!) this is exploitiing and complaining about the damage done and that he is now uneven and that something will probably be done about it.

No Picture katie Average	#3 by katie focner at May 14, 2006 at 10:58 PM EST
	i think the two main things that shine the most in this album are the drums and vocals. and this song proves it. if anybody here listens to korn, i remember jonathan saying that he really loves this song.

No Picture floyd Lead Player	#4 by floyd lloyd at May 29, 2006 at 10:11 AM EST
	well... i wuld just guess that this song is about being what you are and not changing around people. like when girls are best freinds when they are next to each other but hate each other every other time "Another number that isn't equal to any of you " -- i'm different "I control, but I comply" -- i can choose to do new things... but i dont always

No Picture jga Average	#5 by jga qup at Jul 9, 2006 at 2:17 AM EST

No Picture Gladis Wanna Be	#7 by Gladis McHumphry at Nov 13, 2006 at 10:50 AM EST

No Picture lewi Wanna Be	#9 by lewi broadway at May 13, 2007 at 9:35 PM EST
	If there's one thing wrong with KnoT, it's that they're TOO ADDICTIVE!! Blister Exists has to be one of their very best, most innovative, most listenable songs EVER - the drums are just absolutely topnotch, the lyrics are pure poetry - it all sounds like an army marching towards victory, which is just what SlipKnoT is!!!

No Picture bobby Rhythm Player	#10 by bobby volm at Aug 1, 2007 at 4:29 PM EST
	thissong is so much amazing sound refined and armoured with decent lyrics. i love it.

No Picture slapslappopslap Badass	#11 by slapslappopslap at Aug 5, 2007 at 7:07 AM EST
	I could be wrong but i think this song is about people stereotyping you constantly and you overcoming those stereotypes he's also saying dont judge me when he says "i'm a number that isn't equal to any of you hes saying im better than you.
