    Of course I noticed. I think that the message was in the cuts. Personally, I think that the song is talking about self-injury. It is a very real addiction. Sometimes, people do that, to make sure that they are really there, that they can still feel. Depending on the person, the reasons may be a bit different. Sometimes, it is a way of release. Rather than hurt others, you hurt yourself. Or rather than keeping your feelings inside, you are expressing them outwardly. :'( SCary as it is, it really happens. If you have any questions on self-injury, please ask. I will give any information I have. :)

    My friend used to cut o.o now shes going like 8 months solid and no cuts, and yeah the cuts DO spell Numb, they stand out on the classroom, very much so do they spell NUMB that just adds soo much affect to the video and the vid does strike me hard and deep and i have a new definition for Numb now... :chemist:

    I noticed that too, and I personally found it rather disturbing. I mean, I don't think that any teenager is going to see that and think, "Hey, I'm going to be just like that girl and cut my arm," but I found it oddly exploitative in a way I can't really describe - it was like zooming in on a car crash...

    ...and whilst we're on the topic, I was similarly weirded out by the Crawling video, which seemed to have some odd undercurrent of abuse of some ilk or other, which is a veeeerrry sensitive topic to cover, especially in a three-minute pop video!

    Chester was sexually abused as a child...the video reflected upon that.

    Rock video. ;)
