Description "I don't need you to do it for me. I don't need you to understand. I don't need you to hide it from me. I just want to feel like any other man.
I won't show you the whole story. I won't show you the aftermath. I won't show you my allegory. Don't look away, here's an unexplainable one."

I owe my life to SlipKnoT. They taught (and still teach) me how to use my pain, hatred and sorrow as fuel for my art, rather than succumb to them. That it's okay to feel, to love and hate, and to express it. It doesn't matter how dark, pretentious or trite the result is, as long as it's from the heart.
I've recently dug deep into Corey's struggles with depression and sobriety and found them hauntingly similar to my own. Knowing that I'm not alone in this battle with these far too common demons is, in some fucked up way, empowering.

This is for the Maggots. For Paul. For Gabrielle. For all of my brothers and sisters who didn't make it. I'll see you all on the other side, one day. <3

"I've never stopped trying, I've never stopped feeling like family is much more than blood. Don't go on without me, the piece that I represent compliments each and everyone. Till we die."

Stay (sic), Love Always,
