I was a younger boy back then when this came out that was the only white boy living in the hood where I come from and I had to do a lot of f*****-up things to keep me in my family safe that I am far from proud of things that I could never ever tell anybody no matter what imagine living with something so and then knowing your whole life don't nobody would ever understand knowing that you could just never ever say those words to a single person ever there's only two ways to turn you either get depressed or you get angry because there are no other emotions

As a rock / heavy metal musician of 25 years (I know guitar music). This is a master piece of art. This is so underrated unfortunately because it’s not like a painting that most can see. This is coming to the heart through the ear. Not the brain through the eye. So not a lot of people will see what this actually is. This is a masterpiece. The MonaLisa of acoustic music. It will never be topped. There will be other sounds that will have the effects on the heart and mind. But not like this. It can’t bring this same type mirrored pain in all who can relate. This rips open any old wound in a lot of us. It’s proof even tho times heals some. It never goes away. And this is a tapped IV right to the source of our worst heart aches. Very powerful piece of music that will always be underrated.

Song describes a broken soul whose purpose is nothing but only living for that one person and details the struggles of anything for that matter. Addiction, Depression, Lies, Suicide and more it is one of those songs you can relate to in almost any instance. Im one of the many people to relate to this song i suffer from depression,addiction, and suicidal thoughts. Its a hell living inside you that you cant seem to get rid of no matter how clean you think you are, no matter how happy you are, you always live with it as its a part of you and grows on you with everyday and gets harder to ignore and easier to accept. For anybody thats suffering from something they cant help but just want to break down and cry. Find somebody that you can talk to it wont help relieve you of what you have but it will help letting out balled up feelings. Because at the end of the day we are only human we all have our problems that eat us up within but we have a voice to let people know of the hell that comes with these things. Maybe one day there will be a permanent solution but for now we wait and hope to make it another day.

The damage inflicted by narcissistic abuse. They tear you down with the mental, emotional, and physical abuse that you no longer know who are, who you used to be. Taken away your faith, hopes, joy, dreams. Hurting you to the very core of your being. When this is done, now they can show the world how SICK you are and ALL that they had to deal with trying to HELP this person that they love with all their heart and soul. They become the down-trodden victim at last.

I'm an adult survivor of child abuse that extended literally from as far back as I can remember until well into my adult years. I have no self-esteem today, at 37; and I can't look in the mirror without seeing my father's face, because God apparently thought I should look just like him. The only thing I know how to live with is pain, and it never goes away. Sometimes I'm not even sure it dulls over time. I've just gotten so used to it, day in and day out, that it has become my entire frame of reference for "normal." Last night I listened and sang along to this song for the first time in probably ten or twelve years, and every word, every note, every breathy delivery of each raw admission, pummeled me until I completely lost my voice and began to cry at the line "When you look at my face / Does it seem just as ugly / To you?" I virtually never cry. It's not weak or wrong or shameful or anything; I've just hurt so badly for so long that I don't even remember how to let go. But this song broke me instantly. I don't know what to say, except to thank Aaron for this beautiful and profound song; because when I was still too young, scared, angry, self-destructive, and voiceless to put it all together, he was weaving my life story--a stranger's story--into this song. Today, my eyes still ache a bit as I listen once more; but I haven't felt this calm and alright in what feels like years.

Because he's "free-styling"... if you listen to the whole thing, you hear him just plopping down in the studio and with a drink and letting it out. Same story for Outside... when him and Durst went out on stage to perform it, Aaron had the chorus and the first verse done, and that was about it. Or so the story goes. The Legend.

I dedicate almost every song that Aaron has written and performed to everything, and everyone that has tried to destroy me. I s, STRONG, I can have a smile on my face, but be literally broken and dying inside. I Thank God for this man's ability to put the pain that I, and others, carry inside of our souls every second of every day. God Bless Aaron and God Bless each and Everyone that can easily relate to his pain, and the talent that he has been Blessed with to put it into words and music. ♥️♥️♥️

Been a fan for 15 years and Arron lewis and his his band mates insightful music has helped me through the toughest years of mtly life I can honestly say I would not be here today if my brother hadn't played their song for me and handed me the lyric sheet during my darkest day as a teenager it instantly made me feel like I was not only not alone but I did have a voice and it just came out of another person. I want to thank stains from the bottom of my heart for being who they are and sending their music to the world. It has encouraged, helped sothed and mended so many people in more than one way. They were , are and always be the music in my heart and I hear them even when the music's not playing. So to all the hearters of stains I feel nothing but pity and saddnes that they can't get past the shit that is blocking their vision and mind and heart from not seeing the beauty and words that have touched so many. I wish u all luck in ur journey called life cause I will make it through thanks to this amazing band called STAIND. I LOVE YOU

I will never forget meeting him at a small hotel. He was one of the nicest guys. He was thinner then i expected not that he was ever thick really but i just kinda felt the feeling down vibes. It was 2017. Chester just passed and so did chris cornell. He hid in this small town hotel for the night and they kept the bar open later. We were the only ones in there. Beside this guy that I realized later was his manager and his right hand security guy. I didnt know it was him at first. Had a great conversation with him and bought him a drink. Told him I was waiting on my husband. But he probably was one of the more down to earth humble guys. He had a way of bsing with you that you felt like you knew him your whole life and not as an artist/musician. I realized it was him by the way his long sleeve plaid gave away a signature tat while he showed photos on his phone. Photos of his wife Vanessa and his recent concert trips (hes a country fan btw). And river fun with his family. But all that star struck never hit me. I think its because it was just us in there and it felt like you connected with a long lost friend in a dive bar.

Robert Wilken you have nothing to be ashamed of. nevee trust a man without a story. a person with out scars or tattoos has something to hide. my son was born with a rare brain injury called west syndrome. prior ro his birth i was kidnapped as a child, molested and beaten. for years i was a cutter and had no selfworth. drowning the pain in drugs is all i could do and in the end it left me more unstable more often then not. it wasnt till i have my son and saw his struggle that i found out who i was. now people comment on my old cut marks and i wear my heart on my sleeve. im not afraid of the scars and i love who i am. learn to love yourself too. everyone has value and a light to share with the world. if they try to tell you otherwise I SAY FUCK THEM. i hope things will get better for you friend.

When my depression hits, mental illness and sexual abuse I have lived with it is crippling sometimes. I actually find comfort and peace listening to him because he understands the pain he has learned bed it. People tell me why do you listen to such sad, negative music but they just don’t understand it, don’t get it when you hurt how bad it truly feels. Much love and peace to all who are suffering and hurting you are not alone!

Amazing song.... the pain and scars can heal. I was the 9th child born to two chronic alcoholic parents. I was born at home in the worst housing projects in town. Pulled out by DHR at 2 years old due to neglect. Put in a foster home that beat the shit out of me everyday for no reason. Pulled out and put in another foster home. Was finally adopted at 5 years old. Never was told I was loved.. ... went through my my own drinking and drug issues to bury the pain. My wife fought me how to love and be loved at 35 years old. I pushed everybody away because I could not allow in body in my life because I couldn't stand anymore scars mentally or physically. My wife held on when I pushed back for the first couple of years. She loved me unconditional and helped bring the walls down I had up for so long. Took me a long time to seek mental health.... I beg you not to wait. As a man I didn't want mental health help because I didn't want to expose my scars. I am alive today because I finally sought help.... I never thought life could be this good. Men you are not weak because you ask for help. Real men seek the help they need. Nothing will every be so bad that you don't want to live... everything can and will get better no matter how bad it seems. Live a full life and try to find the joy in life and if you help another person it will bring you more happiness than anything you will ever do..... I wish you PEACE, JOY AND LOVE my friends.
