Hes real 4:30 Just have to have faith IN THAT
My dad took his life and in his letter to me and my brother he asked we always listen to this song in remembrance of him! I write this with tears rolling down my face. Such a meaningful song we love u dad
Man, that's really jacked , no disrespect, but that was crushing to me, just to read it. Give it too either children or parents that make the profound mark on one's life, you'll be in my prayers
@@brandonenergychanneling thanks buddy just makes perfect sense to me with all my dad went through in life. And to hear it's always raining in my head , that's exactly what my dad was facing. Haven't been the same since my dad left us thanks again
If you have never suffered from depression , you don't know how dark a night can be. It makes me mad when people say "it's the cowards way out " when they have no idea the pain it brings. For anyone that truly knows , we know the strength it takes to go on ONE MORE DAY.
it really is the cowards way out.. wth are you on about? if I didn't push myself to go out of my bedroom and touch grass after living in obscurity for 11 years, I would've stayed mad and probably lost it by now. thank God for covid, bc of that, people went inside while I did the opposite. the lockdown was all it took for me to find courage to walk out again. damn I hate people still but I am learning not to mind them now.
35 here and this song brought me to my knees tonight. Mental health is no joke, and there’s no real systems in place to treat it. Hospitals aren’t designed for most of the depressed population, outpatient would be just fine, but trying to get someone GOOD or someone AT ALL these days is trash. And expensive. Most of us who suffer live check to check.
Yes it will. I've been in dark places that I hope most will never know. Nowadays, I spend most days with a smile on my face and happy for the most part. Just keep pushing forward and try to find something that makes you happy. For me, it is my kiddos and being able to play golf again. The little things and all
I remember listening to this as an angsty teenager. It hit me in the feels then and it hits me in the feels now in my 30s. Break The Cycle was a masterpiece.
This song is the anthem for anyone with high functioning autism. It perfectly captures that feeling of always being in love, but never saying things right and always being confused.
Yeah 😢 things never seem to come out right, or we are attention seeking or weird, or other.... add in depression, adhd, anxiety, complex ptsd, and more... music is my only outlet that is powerful enough to get my words out and say what I can't. ❤
If you ever suffered with depression you would know that it's always raining in our heads like we always want to try to feel the happiness of our families but sometimes our family members don't understand how we feel so for the people going through depression and bipolar and all the mental illnesses out there I really send my blessings out to you
I couldn't agree more..I lost my wife to suicide 2 yrs ago she battled bipolar disorder and depression.Just when u think everything's OK you lose the love of yur life..This song and video brings to mind the heartache and darkness I've felt since losing her..I wish I had the courage to be with her..But im guna have to wait till my time comes..1 day at a time
I've been dealing with Complex PTSD from childhood to present trauma. I had been to counseling since in my 20's after trying to take my life. No Dr ever diagnosed me properly or ever asked about my childhood until 4 years ago and once I researched what it was I finally understood why I felt the way i did my whole life. Sad that no dr. got it right for that long. I missed out on feeling normal my entire life!!
I love you my wife we will see each other again until then I cry still after 8 years oh I miss you...to anyone else who lost their heart I'm sorry but your not alone...
this is one of the sonsg that you sing at the top of your lungs and no matter how terible your voice is, it sounds beautiful... this is exactlly what modern music is missing.
ain’t that many songs out there that give you the type of feeling this song gives especially if gone through a lot of shit like a lot of people including myself
I lost my daughter in a car accident six years ago...She was nineteen...I always think of her when I hear this song:...Aaron's voice expresses how I feel so well..I will just listen to it on repeat for hours...
Sorry moma I call every woman in my life mom you're you're story breaks my heart 😢 I been trying to read everyone's comments and it's so sad. But God bless you I love ya
Lyrics Your words to me just a whisper Your face is so unclear I try to pay attention Your words just disappear [Chorus] Oh 'Cause it's always raining in my head Oh Forget all the things I should have said [Verse 2] So I speak to you in riddles 'Cause my words get in my way I smoke the whole thing to my head And feel it wash away [Verse 3] 'Cause I can't take anymore of this I wanna come apart Or dig myself a little hole Inside your precious heart [Chorus] Oh 'Cause it's always raining in my head Oh Forget all the things I should have said [Verse 4] I am nothing more than A little boy inside That cries out for attention Yet I always try to hide [Verse 5] 'Cause I talk to you like children Though I don't know how I feel But I know I'll do the right thing If the right thing is revealed [Outro] 'Cause it's always raining in my head Forget all the things I should have said
I am also and I have a hard time trying to admitting it, I get so in love just because a girl gives me a slight sign, I tend to love so intensely and suffer the same way that life seems imposible at times in a world of cheap feelings and aspirations. God less.
My wife and I have been married 6 years. I have borderline and I'm on the spectrum too. This song explains what she deals with on a daily basis. I love her more than words can express.
@queenprules1724 Let these comments be a testament to how humanity needs to be kinder. We can’t tell what struggles a person is dealing with, but we can understand that everyone has a struggle. People need love and I feel we all could be loving towards each other. But, I’m an old man now, so what do I know? Lol
I literally lost both my parents on Thanksgiving day unexpectedly. They passed within 14hrs. Of each other in the same bed, same hospital. I miss them more than anything. Mental illness is real and music is my therapy. Thank you Lewis for helping the ones that are struggling with mental issues and I (we) appreciate you!!!
I almost took my life to this song, but I learned to tolerate myself enough to keep living some sort of life. Then I met my wife who gives me purpose. With out my wife, I am nothing more than an empty shell.
When I was growing up my mom would always listen to this song after her father passed away and now I listen to it because she’s gone and it always reminds me of her.
My father. A really great man passed and I buried him today. And I still hear his voice when I hear this song. He sang his heart out when he would hear the song play. He was 50. R.I.P Mr. Lee
My husband took his life 16 yrs ago and this was one of the songs he use to play. Every time I hear this song it's bitter sweet. He n I both had depression. I still struggle with it everyday. I miss him more than words can say. But I keep fighting because I have 4 kids n 2 grandbabies that need me. Stay strong it really is worth the fight. Love n peace sent 💕✌️
Christy, both the takers and the survivors are truly a rare breed. It's difficult to understand both sides , so I'm sure your husband was in his own battles that only he knew all the answers. Sorry for your loss!
I'll listen to this song all the time. I lost my daughter. And This song makes me think all the time. Nobody knows the pain I go through. I try and stay strong but I don't know how much more I can love and miss her.
Mary... Hang in there! You are not alone! Millions of people suffer everyday, me included. Just look for the sun each day, and say you can overcome this!
The vocal dynamics to this song is what makes it such a masterpiece. You just listen to Aarons voice and it takes you on this uplifting ride out of your depressive comfort zone and into normality, if only for a moment, and then the song ends.
I deff remember it,I was going wild at the time. I guess it helped tame me a little,along with alot of other great music,and my own contributions to the local music scene
@@goldielocks2720 Oh. My bad. I just thought I had a unique case of really uncomfortable gas, but was somehow pleasant and satisfying. Most definetly the kind of thing you would never tell your family or significant other about, but is perfectly appropriate to share with countless strangers online. Yup. So essentially, it wasn't gas, it was my soul. My Staind soul. 😳😁😉😄
@ Annie Watson Coventry i feel the same way i lost my dad due to a stroke and depression in January of this year 3 weeks short of of his 75th birthday and i was floored when he started playing Staind and i told him 'Dad I didnt know you liked Staind' and he said 'you play them enough and couldnt help but like them' and i smiled a secret smile inside and was like yes i finally turned him onto good music and this was 1 of his favorite songs and it still makes me smile and cry at the same time :) and ive still got so many unanswered questions that only he can answer that i will never have an answer to
Break the Cycle was on repeat on my playlist, this gem was probably all I listened to for an hour at times. It calmed my angst, help me cope with multiple losses, and cleared my lungs on account of all the screaming. Thank you for this album, most importantly this song that has spoken and resonated with me for 20 years!
All these comments break my heart. I've always had a sadness in me, but would never take my life. Withh all the downs, there are ups. Moments of happiness. A sunset. A hug from your child. Please know you are loved. And you may end your own pain, but never the ones left behind who would miss you.....
You know, when you lose someone you love, it haunts you, the fights, the things you say that you don’t mean, it hurts, then you lose them, and you can’t take it back, your left with a hole ripped outta your soul, but, you move on, you have too
I lost the best relationship because of my adhd. Untreated it's so hard to Express your thoughts. Dont neglect your mental health. You will miss out on alot
Know the pain buddy, where I live there's no support for adult mental health so even if your medicated as a child once you become a adult your on your own
I am convinced I have undiagnosed autism. Or only child syndrome. I have a very hard time expressing my thoughts and emotions. I come off cold, calloused, and quiet. In my head I just don't know what to say, or how to say it. I have communication issues. This is very straining on my relationship.. we have kids together and she's had about enough of me. I don't know how to be a better partner
@@beezybeez7231 I've never heard of them but from skimming these songs, one of them I noticed screaming and not too big a fan of songs that do that so unless there's enough about it that I like and that is a pretty minor part about the song, I'm not sure I'll like it.
I lost my wife, she past away in my arms. This song is everything I'm going through. My girls was there screaming daddy save her, and I couldn't 😔. Rest in peace my beautiful Angele💯❤️
It’s always tough to see a loved one pass away, I’ve even I too many situations where I was either the only one, or had the respect to be the one to close theirs eyes. It haunts me to this day, so I understand and intended no disrespect
I'm so sorry for your loss, I'm going through it now myself. Really don't know what to do! I don't want to live without her, but I can't do that to our kids. My heart just hurts.
Thank you Aaron Lewis, for helping me not feel so alone when I was in my darkest place. I’m no longer living in darkness. 2 years free from the prison of addiction and alcoholism. Aaron saved my life with his music.
This is chickenneck and I want to say with a great big HUG, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW LIFE!!!!!! You deserve such a sweet life and I TRULY HOPE THAT YOU ARE KEEPING UP WITH YOURSELF.!!!!! You are a VERY special person never forget that!! Much LOVE, from chickenneck
I'm fighting the fight now.. I'm in dacco.(a drug rehab) in Florida.. I'm fighting so hard.. I haven't seen my wife our kids in 5 months it's killing me inside.. but my addiction is not going to win. Opiate's addiction is real hard to fight it's won for 15 years but not no more...
Grief is one of the hardest fkn things I've experienced so far. I lost my mother in 2000. She was my best friend, she was a down to Earth person. A flower child of the sixties, smart as a whip. Mean as a tiger ,there were so many things she taught me. I miss her so much ,she never let me down. Ever. She was the most tranquil soul I've ever known. A good natured spirit. I could go on and on. I still cry to be with her. She's checked on me every now and then. There is no words really. My mother was a very precious gift to this short life. Sadly the curse of this life is to loose everyone you truly love,and we can't do a dahm thing about it. We just moved forward through it. Accept it. Let go ,but never ever forget. I know she would want me to keep on going. I just hope she is proud of me. I'll love her for all eternity. If there was a award for best mom. She would get it. It gets better. It takes a while. I cried for seven years till the tears ran out. What gave me the strength to carry on ? I got unstuck when I stopped drinking alcohol and doing hard drugs. It was suppressing my healing process by burying my feelings. Clarity unblocks everything. I feel her around me sometimes. I dream and she's with me in my dreams. She still teaches me good wisdom. She was my best friend here. Always will be. Forever.
This song is a powerful way to express pain you have inside which maybe hard to put into meaningful words to someone that cares about you and is trying to help and understand.
There are people who make music, and people who Are music. Lewis is music and I'm glad to be alive at the time he existed and created music for us to listen to.
@@annc7739 funnily enough... I was first introduced to staind by my older brother and he showed me its been a while and a bunch of other songs when I was a teen. Somehow we went from this to rise against, then old skool happy hardcore. How on earth we got to old djs like Scott Brown and dj hixxy I have no clue
I have played this out at my own funeral countless times. Truly one of the songs that speaks to me inside my soul- close your eyes and listen to the words
Same... Also... The irony of your profile name being "FullMetal Alchemist" themed, especially when I was JUST talking about it. All time favorite anime admittedly.
Arron said it cost a million dollars to make the film! Worth every penny. Every penny for someone to say how I feel inside. We miss the ones we lost, every day its raining.
I was a rebellious teenager when this song first came out and my mom despised the music I listened to EXCEPT this one. She died in 2003, and since then, this is the song I remember her by. She would go on eternal rants about how crazy I was for listening to what I used to listen, and how this song really was different, well composed, emotional, and she even liked how it ended with "heart beats". 18 years later I still miss her, and for a good part of those 18 years I'd cry listening to this; now it makes me smile because it brings back fond memories of when she was alive. Thanks, Staind, and kudos for writing the only song both me and my mom agreed was good. That is an accomplishment in and of itself.
An instant classic, and songs like this... This is what I appreciate Staind for the absolute most. Way too much secular music focuses on subjects that... Really don't hold meaning in the true world, like sex and drugs and money... None of that holds the real meaning in the world that people are always searching for... However... Songs like this, Home, Fade, It's Been Awhile, Outside, Open Your Eyes, Falling, So Far Away, Warm Safe Place, even their current songs like Here and Now... This soulful music is what makes me appreciate Staind the absolute most, and because of that... I'm praying for them all, along with their families and friends... Genuinely, our Father who is in Heaven, hear my prayer for them all... In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray this, amen. 🙏 To those who also are fans and, also men and women of God, please join me in this prayer for them. ✝️
Stained was my band back when I was 14-18 Ah the memories. Without good music I'd be dead. Feel sad for the kids today not having songs that can change their day.
Im 34. When this song came out. I always played it as a cry for help. But was never heard. Idk how i made it till now. I still have my lunch box. That i fill with things every morning to help me survive everyday. I just keep my blue collar up. And keep the checks coming for my kids. Without any thought about myself. I just remember the promise i made when i was a kid that I'll be better than my dad
I was driving into town this morning, I'll be honest, I was in a bad mood. Then this song came on the radio........it changed my mood immediately. I love this song. The words for me describes what we all feel inside from time to time, but we'll never acknowledge it. Thank you Staind.
I’m a high functioning autist with clinical depression, and holy shit, this resonates with me like crazy… the feelings of regret and confusion are all consuming some days. “I know I’ll do the right thing / if the right thing is revealed” has got to be one of the strongest lines, imo
As someone who suffers from high-functioning autism, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and anger issues, this song helps me when i hit my breaking points and can't take anymore. To anyone else who struggles woth mental health, keep fighting, i know its hard, but your not alone, I'm fighting too 💔
I lost my mother in 2000. I reached a pretty dark place during that time. I found the Dysfuntion album right around the time I lost her. Aaron's feeling in his songs helped me through it all. As the years passed, and my feelings changed, Staind released Break the Cycle, and 14 Shades of Gray. The tone of those albums fit with where I was emotionally during that time. I owe Staind, like so many others, for keeping me centered during this time. So, thank you to this fantastic band. And I'm still listening in 2022. It helps me remember her.
I love my dad I hope he never leaves me... We used to listen to this at his house... I just want you to know I love you dad... You did what you could for me and my sisters! It's ok I love and appreciate you everyday! Your mental illness is not your fault you did what you could... You never had anything you worked your ass off for nothing but you understand that love is all that matters! I know you couldn't buy us the world but I love you anyway!!! Love missy I hope you pull through this I love it when your happy!
I struggle everyday with depression on top of being homeless not knowing what my life will be like today just hoping for the best each day but I get through don't no how but I do but the inner strength some how having one person believe in u is the most amazing thing in the world and I thank u Bridget if not for u n my son I'd have given up on me
I took guitar lessons from my pastor son just so I can play all of Staind and Aaron Lewis Music😊 He is a legend to me ...their were times in my life in my past that his Music saved Me 🖤
I read so many who have lost by suicide, I too have been to the edge of that abyss darkness, a nearly silent whisper and I didn’t do it. The next day I lay in a cell surrounded by the hardest of the hard murders only. I awoke to hear one sentence above all the jail noise, “One day God is going to knock you flat on your back, so that the only direction you see is straight up”! I was told that when I was just 17. The angels carried that statement aloft until when I reached 30 they delivered it to me in my crossroads. I know now, for those who are called today to believe, only the harshest is hurtled at them, we, us, you and I. We are truly that important that only the worse is used to stop us. I’m 61 now, disabled just this year and suffering even greater right now than I was way back then, but I’ll never walk up to that edge again. So to you out there, life is only going to match you in this fight, that’s the only way to really be a champion. Take a knee, an eight count but whisper while your down there a single silent prayer for strength. Now that I’ve shared this whisper one for me too, I just broke the rules so here comes the kitchen sink again.
Truly poetic my friend, I was in a cell when I spoke to the one above to prove to me that He was there for me and I would be only for Him. Well He proved it and continues every day. Have faith!
Oh my Lord, my heart breaks at the sight of this place. What horors they do to each other. There is no regusrd for YOUR TRUTH. please give me strength in this hour for i am so tired. Do with me as YOU WILL DESIRES
I had forgotten about this song until now. I just listened to it 12 times on replay and I have goosebumps all over! Absolutely unbelievable tune 🤘🏼🤙🏼🥰🥰🥰
It sounds so fucked up to type, but this song reasonates with my life more than I ever could. Mental illness is tough
Mine too!!
Depression sucks,so damn bad.I wouldn't wish these feelings upon anyone ever. Yes its really that damn bad.
I'm not well, and don't have the answers, but I have a support system that keeps me going. You aren't alone, reach out, even if it's a comment on here, I'll answer. It can't get better if you quit.

He lives on in you and your brother. Depression is an awful condition that needs so much more awareness and support. Much love to you buddy. X
I'm so sorry
If you have never suffered from depression , you don't know how dark a night can be. It makes me mad when people say "it's the cowards way out " when they have no idea the pain it brings. For anyone that truly knows , we know the strength it takes to go on ONE MORE DAY.
Truth brother 🙏
it really is the cowards way out.. wth are you on about? if I didn't push myself to go out of my bedroom and touch grass after living in obscurity for 11 years, I would've stayed mad and probably lost it by now. thank God for covid, bc of that, people went inside while I did the opposite. the lockdown was all it took for me to find courage to walk out again. damn I hate people still but I am learning not to mind them now.
im glad you found a way out of the depression.
I agree but it takes balls to follow through with taking your life
Its never a cowards way ever. Depression is real. Im saying this as tears fall down my face. I struggle with it everyday
Im 38 and this song still hits hard. Depression and anxiety are no joke!
I'm 53 and feel your pain/agony, it's not a joke at all. Let's remember what the song was originally written about which is ADHD.
Why do people always say how old they are??
Mental illness is mental illness regardless of age.
35 here and this song brought me to my knees tonight. Mental health is no joke, and there’s no real systems in place to treat it. Hospitals aren’t designed for most of the depressed population, outpatient would be just fine, but trying to get someone GOOD or someone AT ALL these days is trash. And expensive.

No they are not😢
Exactly!
Can we talk about how beautiful this video is?

This song still hits hard in 2024! ❤❤❤
I quit my corporate job because of this situation. I took my mental health first.
If you don't suffer from depression its hard for people to understand how you feel. That's the f****** truth and it sucks.
That's definitely true because I go through depression all the time and get judged people say I'm weak but it means we've been strong for too long.
PTSD is worse.

Lyrics
Your words to me just a whisper
Your face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear
[Chorus]
Oh
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Oh
Forget all the things I should have said
[Verse 2]
So I speak to you in riddles
'Cause my words get in my way
I smoke the whole thing to my head
And feel it wash away
[Verse 3]
'Cause I can't take anymore of this
I wanna come apart
Or dig myself a little hole
Inside your precious heart
[Chorus]
Oh
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Oh
Forget all the things I should have said
[Verse 4]
I am nothing more than
A little boy inside
That cries out for attention
Yet I always try to hide
[Verse 5]
'Cause I talk to you like children
Though I don't know how I feel
But I know I'll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed
[Outro]
'Cause it's always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said
It's very deep

The video fits perfectly, it is a precious video
one of the greatest songs ever written. As a bipolar sufferer this speaks to me. Beautiful
Same dude i feel ya pain
I am also and I have a hard time trying to admitting it, I get so in love just because a girl gives me a slight sign, I tend to love so intensely and suffer the same way that life seems imposible at times in a world of cheap feelings and aspirations. God less.
I agree, I'm bi-polar and in tears every time i hear this and remember all the horrors of my past :-(
Same brother. No one else understands this shit in our head.
My wife and I have been married 6 years. I have borderline and I'm on the spectrum too. This song explains what she deals with on a daily basis. I love her more than words can express.
Staind has helped me tremendous on the darkest parts of my life.....truly greatful to this amazing band!!
ME TOO 😭💔
@steven laughs thank you so much for the kind words Steven....really means a lot to me....Depression can really be a motherf**ker...
This band has and still helps me through hard times. Everything about this band is so beyond beautiful.
@@Tgunns81 i do agree Tommy, hope everything is fine to you now...i am truly grateful for this band.
Same got me high school and college.
It’s crushing me reading these comments
Dgaf get off my comment section human
@queenprules1724 Let these comments be a testament to how humanity needs to be kinder. We can’t tell what struggles a person is dealing with, but we can understand that everyone has a struggle. People need love and I feel we all could be loving towards each other. But, I’m an old man now, so what do I know? Lol
@@josephpena6181Cleary you gave a fuck 😂
Reeee
It's okay. We're fine.
Here in 2024, this song still ❤
I love this song
Oh yes. Love this song
Still fire. After 24yrs

Always loved this song lot suicide in my family
lucky one hit wonder
I literally lost both my parents on Thanksgiving day unexpectedly. They passed within 14hrs. Of each other in the same bed, same hospital. I miss them more than anything. Mental illness is real and music is my therapy. Thank you Lewis for helping the ones that are struggling with mental issues and I (we) appreciate you!!!
sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss...
That is very tragic to happen at the same time. My deepest apologies to you, my friend
So sorry for your loss... I wish you good health including mental health..
OMG I'm so sorry for your loss that's unimaginable and heartbreaking 💔🕊️🕊️❤️🩹
To everyone listening to this: you're stellar. Perfect. Wanted. Valued. NEEDED.
Thank you friend ❤❤❤❤
Thank you too
im drunk
You too 💚💚
Thank you! Needed to see this
This song just sums everything up when you're in a dark place. To everyone out there in despair hold on in there.❤
What do you admire most about Staind
The way the songs speak to you when you are at your lowest ebb.❤
I'm lost in purgatory despair is inevitable just how long will it take before my warrior spirit can't keep fighting
When I do my therapist, I struggle to express myself. So I share my thoughts in music. This explains it so well .
I almost took my life to this song, but I learned to tolerate myself enough to keep living some sort of life. Then I met my wife who gives me purpose. With out my wife, I am nothing more than an empty shell.
When I was growing up my mom would always listen to this song after her father passed away and now I listen to it because she’s gone and it always reminds me of her.
So sorry for your loss man
I’m so sorry for your loss brother.
God Bless you, bro 🙏
Sorry for your loss. Take care
keep myself thank you for support 🙏
My father. A really great man passed and I buried him today. And I still hear his voice when I hear this song. He sang his heart out when he would hear the song play. He was 50. R.I.P Mr. Lee
I'm so sorry. R.I.P Mr.Lee
😢rest in peace to your father 🙏💔❤️🩹
I'm sorry for your loss.
I lost my Dad 👨 due to negligent care. 😪 I understand.
This song has held a special place in my heart for at least 20 years.
My husband took his life 16 yrs ago and this was one of the songs he use to play. Every time I hear this song it's bitter sweet. He n I both had depression. I still struggle with it everyday. I miss him more than words can say. But I keep fighting because I have 4 kids n 2 grandbabies that need me. Stay strong it really is worth the fight. Love n peace sent 💕✌️
I hope you are still going well and holding on
Christy, both the takers and the survivors are truly a rare breed. It's difficult to understand both sides , so I'm sure your husband was in his own battles that only he knew all the answers. Sorry for your loss!
I'll listen to this song all the time. I lost my daughter.
And This song makes me think all the time. Nobody knows the pain I go through.
I try and stay strong but I don't know how much more I can love and miss her.
Mary...
Hang in there! You are not alone! Millions of people suffer everyday, me included.
Just look for the sun each day, and say you can overcome this!
@@dayax68 ty
The vocal dynamics to this song is what makes it such a masterpiece. You just listen to Aarons voice and it takes you on this uplifting ride out of your depressive comfort zone and into normality, if only for a moment, and then the song ends.
I feel it's not the case it's only in its entirety it achieves masterpiece status
G go i
Staind is the best! But you need to listen to "Live Not Survive" by SLT right now -//- !!! You're missing out !!! :)
Still gives me goosebumps 22 years later.
doesnt give me goose bumps cuz it sucks

One of their most underrated songs. This dude can flat out sing
That moment when you can relate to a song..14 years later..jesus Im old
I know that feel!
Being old is better than the alternative my friend :)
16 years ago. indeed, time flies.
Am artist can pound the real hearts of this life respect to words of many! !
awze87: I'm possibly older than you my friend, but it's still a great song. I was 20/21 when this song came out
This song hits the very core of one's soul..... and most of us feel this way rather they're willing to admit or not...
when Break The Cycle came out it basically saved my life, the whole album was so good
I can relate to this also 😬
U to
I deff remember it,I was going wild at the time. I guess it helped tame me a little,along with alot of other great music,and my own contributions to the local music scene
If you can’t feel this song down deep inside, you don’t have a soul.
Technically it means you have a unique brain 😂❤ But i feel ya.
@@goldielocks2720 Oh. My bad. I just thought I had a unique case of really uncomfortable gas, but was somehow pleasant and satisfying. Most definetly the kind of thing you would never tell your family or significant other about, but is perfectly appropriate to share with countless strangers online. Yup.
So essentially, it wasn't gas, it was my soul. My Staind soul.
😳😁😉😄
That's me than.

Thanks for being a dick. I'm autistic.
Such a delicate and fragile song I can't help but feel it emotionally and cry every time It comes on.
@ Annie Watson Coventry i feel the same way i lost my dad due to a stroke and depression in January of this year 3 weeks short of of his 75th birthday and i was floored when he started playing Staind and i told him 'Dad I didnt know you liked Staind' and he said 'you play them enough and couldnt help but like them' and i smiled a secret smile inside and was like yes i finally turned him onto good music and this was 1 of his favorite songs and it still makes me smile and cry at the same time :) and ive still got so many unanswered questions that only he can answer that i will never have an answer to
Break the Cycle was on repeat on my playlist, this gem was probably all I listened to for an hour at times. It calmed my angst, help me cope with multiple losses, and cleared my lungs on account of all the screaming. Thank you for this album, most importantly this song that has spoken and resonated with me for 20 years!
All these comments break my heart. I've always had a sadness in me, but would never take my life. Withh all the downs, there are ups. Moments of happiness. A sunset. A hug from your child. Please know you are loved. And you may end your own pain, but never the ones left behind who would miss you.....
See me not, but I still remember
@erikdraven2109 nice name. Can't rain all the time.
You know, when you lose someone you love, it haunts you, the fights, the things you say that you don’t mean, it hurts, then you lose them, and you can’t take it back, your left with a hole ripped outta your soul, but, you move on, you have too
Well said
His music always have a way to strike at the inner part of my soul
I lost the best relationship because of my adhd. Untreated it's so hard to Express your thoughts. Dont neglect your mental health. You will miss out on alot
Know the pain buddy, where I live there's no support for adult mental health so even if your medicated as a child once you become a adult your on your own
It's hard man, think that why music like this is here to help us
so did i your not alone i feel terible about it
@@southerngal9087 Sorry to hear that.. be strong.
I am convinced I have undiagnosed autism. Or only child syndrome. I have a very hard time expressing my thoughts and emotions. I come off cold, calloused, and quiet. In my head I just don't know what to say, or how to say it. I have communication issues. This is very straining on my relationship.. we have kids together and she's had about enough of me. I don't know how to be a better partner
I've always liked this song.
@@beezybeez7231 I've never heard of them but from skimming these songs, one of them I noticed screaming and not too big a fan of songs that do that so unless there's enough about it that I like and that is a pretty minor part about the song, I'm not sure I'll like it.
@@beezybeez7231 I like their overall sound though.
Another song that reaches into your soul. I can relate to this song and I hope we all get though the sadness and pain life brings
I lost my wife, she past away in my arms. This song is everything I'm going through. My girls was there screaming daddy save her, and I couldn't 😔. Rest in peace my beautiful Angele💯❤️
It’s always tough to see a loved one pass away, I’ve even I too many situations where I was either the only one, or had the respect to be the one to close theirs eyes. It haunts me to this day, so I understand and intended no disrespect
Stay strong, brother! I pray for you and your family. Great from Belarus!
I'm so sorry for your loss, I'm going through it now myself. Really don't know what to do! I don't want to live without her, but I can't do that to our kids. My heart just hurts.
@@michaellong7649 wish u the best it's a long road and pain never really goes away. Seeing your kids only makes it worse seeing her through them. ❣️😔
Keep going strong my friend, for your girls & yourself. Yur wife will always be there in spirit. Memories and love last forever. God loves you 🤍
Thank you Aaron Lewis, for helping me not feel so alone when I was in my darkest place. I’m no longer living in darkness. 2 years free from the prison of addiction and alcoholism. Aaron saved my life with his music.
This is chickenneck and I want to say with a great big HUG, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW LIFE!!!!!! You deserve such a sweet life and I TRULY HOPE THAT YOU ARE KEEPING UP WITH YOURSELF.!!!!! You are a VERY special person never forget that!! Much LOVE, from chickenneck
I'm fighting the fight now.. I'm in dacco.(a drug rehab) in Florida.. I'm fighting so hard.. I haven't seen my wife our kids in 5 months it's killing me inside.. but my addiction is not going to win. Opiate's addiction is real hard to fight it's won for 15 years but not no more...
I think it's amazing how percussion sounds like a heart beating! It's beautiful beyond any words.
Hello There, how are you doing
Grief is one of the hardest fkn things I've experienced so far. I lost my mother in 2000. She was my best friend, she was a down to Earth person. A flower child of the sixties, smart as a whip. Mean as a tiger ,there were so many things she taught me. I miss her so much ,she never let me down. Ever. She was the most tranquil soul I've ever known. A good natured spirit. I could go on and on. I still cry to be with her. She's checked on me every now and then. There is no words really. My mother was a very precious gift to this short life. Sadly the curse of this life is to loose everyone you truly love,and we can't do a dahm thing about it. We just moved forward through it. Accept it. Let go ,but never ever forget. I know she would want me to keep on going. I just hope she is proud of me. I'll love her for all eternity. If there was a award for best mom. She would get it. It gets better. It takes a while. I cried for seven years till the tears ran out. What gave me the strength to carry on ? I got unstuck when I stopped drinking alcohol and doing hard drugs. It was suppressing my healing process by burying my feelings. Clarity unblocks everything. I feel her around me sometimes. I dream and she's with me in my dreams. She still teaches me good wisdom. She was my best friend here. Always will be. Forever.
They say our loved ones are actually visiting us when they come to us in our dreams. Your mom is still checking in on you 🫶🏼🌻
This song is a powerful way to express pain you have inside which maybe hard to put into meaningful words to someone that cares about you and is trying to help and understand.
Staind is the best! But you need to listen to “Live Not Survive” by SLT right now 🤘🎸🎹! You’re missing out!!! -//-

😭😢🥺this is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard
Nutshell from alice in chains too
In fact, this song talks about his schizofrenic disease.. Poor aaron
💙
Cristy Dunn naaaa
Cesar Ramos yeah it’s ok but this is slow af and idk just something about it
There are people who make music, and people who Are music. Lewis is music and I'm glad to be alive at the time he existed and created music for us to listen to.
Apollo2003 yes I agree. This is my favorite bands. It helps me so much.
Apollo2003, I’m glad I was 12 when “It’s Been A While” first came out on the radio in 2001 and that song was what introduced me to Aaron Lewis’ music.
Apollo2003 omg yes
he stills exist he plays to his true calling old school country you should try to listen to his country u might like it like I did
@@annc7739 funnily enough... I was first introduced to staind by my older brother and he showed me its been a while and a bunch of other songs when I was a teen. Somehow we went from this to rise against, then old skool happy hardcore. How on earth we got to old djs like Scott Brown and dj hixxy I have no clue
This is not just a song it's a masterpiece ❤️

Yes it is❤
I have played this out at my own funeral countless times. Truly one of the songs that speaks to me inside my soul- close your eyes and listen to the words
Same... Also... The irony of your profile name being "FullMetal Alchemist" themed, especially when I was JUST talking about it.
All time favorite anime admittedly.
I just told my partner to play this for me when I die
Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 🙏 Anoist da most crushed,hurt,all around,embrace everything cuz it's journey,steps to success to life.Amen
Arron said it cost a million dollars to make the film! Worth every penny. Every penny for someone to say how I feel inside. We miss the ones we lost, every day its raining.

@@josephpena6181That doesn't make any sense.
Staind after all these years still puts out good shit.
Aaron Lewis is pure heart when he sings.
Depression is a mf. Be glad if your happy. Try not to judge others because you never know what they are dealing with or going through.
Truth there what u are saying
I was a rebellious teenager when this song first came out and my mom despised the music I listened to EXCEPT this one. She died in 2003, and since then, this is the song I remember her by. She would go on eternal rants about how crazy I was for listening to what I used to listen, and how this song really was different, well composed, emotional, and she even liked how it ended with "heart beats". 18 years later I still miss her, and for a good part of those 18 years I'd cry listening to this; now it makes me smile because it brings back fond memories of when she was alive. Thanks, Staind, and kudos for writing the only song both me and my mom agreed was good. That is an accomplishment in and of itself.
This song gave me the power to beat addiction
PROUD of YOU. Most ppl don't understand. I got you!!
An instant classic, and songs like this... This is what I appreciate Staind for the absolute most. Way too much secular music focuses on subjects that... Really don't hold meaning in the true world, like sex and drugs and money... None of that holds the real meaning in the world that people are always searching for...
However... Songs like this, Home, Fade, It's Been Awhile, Outside, Open Your Eyes, Falling, So Far Away, Warm Safe Place, even their current songs like Here and Now... This soulful music is what makes me appreciate Staind the absolute most, and because of that... I'm praying for them all, along with their families and friends...
Genuinely, our Father who is in Heaven, hear my prayer for them all... In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray this, amen. 🙏
To those who also are fans and, also men and women of God, please join me in this prayer for them. ✝️
Stained was my band back when I was 14-18 Ah the memories. Without good music I'd be dead. Feel sad for the kids today not having songs that can change their day.
Staind got me through a tough time of my life…this song is so underrated.
Im 34. When this song came out. I always played it as a cry for help. But was never heard. Idk how i made it till now.
I still have my lunch box. That i fill with things every morning to help me survive everyday. I just keep my blue collar up. And keep the checks coming for my kids. Without any thought about myself. I just remember the promise i made when i was a kid that I'll be better than my dad
I was driving into town this morning, I'll be honest, I was in a bad mood. Then this song came on the radio........it changed my mood immediately. I love this song. The words for me describes what we all feel inside from time to time, but we'll never acknowledge it. Thank you Staind.
thank you all u people for helping me
I’m a high functioning autist with clinical depression, and holy shit, this resonates with me like crazy… the feelings of regret and confusion are all consuming some days.
“I know I’ll do the right thing / if the right thing is revealed” has got to be one of the strongest lines, imo
It says on song facts that he wrote about his ADD so us it makes sense how we can relate.

there are people like you, hope you doing better now
It hits that certain spot
This song is about loss. Losing the one thing important to you
This may be the most beautifully sad song ever written. Absolute perfection!
Hits you right where you need it!!!
As someone who suffers from high-functioning autism, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and anger issues, this song helps me when i hit my breaking points and can't take anymore.
To anyone else who struggles woth mental health, keep fighting, i know its hard, but your not alone, I'm fighting too 💔

@Jason Powell he's a Phantom, I tell ya 😉. If we were to discuss his first roles, we'd have to go Back to the Future!
I lost my mother in 2000. I reached a pretty dark place during that time. I found the Dysfuntion album right around the time I lost her. Aaron's feeling in his songs helped me through it all. As the years passed, and my feelings changed, Staind released Break the Cycle, and 14 Shades of Gray. The tone of those albums fit with where I was emotionally during that time. I owe Staind, like so many others, for keeping me centered during this time. So, thank you to this fantastic band. And I'm still listening in 2022. It helps me remember her.
I love my dad I hope he never leaves me... We used to listen to this at his house... I just want you to know I love you dad... You did what you could for me and my sisters! It's ok I love and appreciate you everyday! Your mental illness is not your fault you did what you could... You never had anything you worked your ass off for nothing but you understand that love is all that matters! I know you couldn't buy us the world but I love you anyway!!! Love missy I hope you pull through this I love it when your happy!

Aaron is a lyrical genius
I read so many who have lost by suicide, I too have been to the edge of that abyss darkness, a nearly silent whisper and I didn’t do it. The next day I lay in a cell surrounded by the hardest of the hard murders only. I awoke to hear one sentence above all the jail noise, “One day God is going to knock you flat on your back, so that the only direction you see is straight up”! I was told that when I was just 17. The angels carried that statement aloft until when I reached 30 they delivered it to me in my crossroads. I know now, for those who are called today to believe, only the harshest is hurtled at them, we, us, you and I. We are truly that important that only the worse is used to stop us. I’m 61 now, disabled just this year and suffering even greater right now than I was way back then, but I’ll never walk up to that edge again. So to you out there, life is only going to match you in this fight, that’s the only way to really be a champion. Take a knee, an eight count but whisper while your down there a single silent prayer for strength. Now that I’ve shared this whisper one for me too, I just broke the rules so here comes the kitchen sink again.
Truly poetic my friend, I was in a cell when I spoke to the one above to prove to me that He was there for me and I would be only for Him. Well He proved it and continues every day. Have faith!
I want this song played at my funeral...
Yessss!
Legends never die, they're just missing in action
Thanks Aaron. Live this song.
I played this song over and over at my brothers memorial. He took his own life in my house in 2008. Miss ya bub. Thanks
Forever Stained. Forever a fan and glad to have been growing up while you guys started out. 🙏
Oh my Lord, my heart breaks at the sight of this place. What horors they do to each other. There is no regusrd for YOUR TRUTH.
please give me strength in this hour for i am so tired.
