Staind – Something To Remind You lyrics

Staind – Something To Remind You lyrics

So this is it
I say goodbye
To this chapter of my everchanging life
And These mistakes
The path is long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone

When the day comes in
And the Sun won't touch my face
Tell the ones who cared enough
That I finally left this place

That's been so cold
Look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase
The road is long
Just one more song
A little something to remind you when I'm gone
When I'm gone

The road to Hell
Along the way
Is paved with good intentions so they say
And some believe
That no good deed
That go unpunished in the end or so it seems

When the day comes in
And the Sun won't touch my face
Tell the ones who cared enough
That I finally left this place

That's been so cold
Look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase
The road is long
Just one more song
A little something to remind you when I'm gone
When I'm gone

So this is it
I say goodbye
To this chapter of my everchanging life
And These mistakes
The path was long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone
When I'm gone

I'm 48 yr old man I cry evertime I hear the song, it hits you right in the heart. Your true heart, , I have feelings that have been eating me alive for few years and every time I hear this it always seems like someone with open mind would understand if they knew me why the sun wont touch my face, the guys of staind, , love ya Brothers you have rocked me literally to my soul. And to those who have lost people who gave up. . There waas a lot of pain. You just don't give up with blow of the wind.

Its about ever changing life no matter what the path we choose good or bad every choice has a consequence. Every beginning has an end and we all have goodbyes to say. So this is it. This is what it means to have one last song to sing, one last word to say, and in the end when there is no more sun upon our face we all want to be remembered and want our loved ones to understand our choices or mistakes. The song is subjective and will be interpreted by each individual its poetry. I absolutely fell in love with it the moment I heard it. Thank you staind.

This song is really good and just like most people I can relate to this sing; not because it reminds me of someone I lost; but because I could of been the one who was lost. I battle with depression and some other mental health issues and I also have other medical conditions that I deal with everyday. I'm not just someone that says I want to die for attention. I suffer from constant back pain due to my scoliosis and I also suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. I was in the dark for so longoing and saw no way out. I don't see myself as someone that would be missed by any body. It took me awhile but I found the light and got out of the darkness it was a struggle, it took what feels like forever. When I hear this song it reminds me of the struggle I went through battling my inner demons and that I'm still here. When I do die I want this song played on repeat at my funeral because this song means a lot to me. If you battling and trying to find the way through the dark don't stop fighting because there is a better place in the light and if your demons.
If your demons do win just know that most people don't know the struggle. However I do understand and if you chose to leave this earth by your own hand just know I don't blame you and I won't forget about you or anybody that has or will take there own lives. If this little story about my life helps you find some peace I hope you can help others just like I helped you.

My boyfriend of 6 yrs called me the day of killing himself and told me to listen to this song, I didn't think anything of it he always loved staind, but I would hope this means that when no gone no matter what had happened in your hard life (you did not deserve) the pains no longer there and you want all of us who cared for you that you finally left and are st peace.

When I heard this song the first time, I only found the guitarpart at the beginning beautiful. But then I listened it again and again. Later, I started to translate it in german (I'm form germany) and the meaning of this song is so profound. Since I know that song, I'm listen to it every evening to sleep well and it works. (: I think it appeases me and it feels like someone understands me (;

Another wonderful repentance song from Staind.
The main meaning of the song is pretty obvious. However, I think the specific message that emerges from this song is the fact that we will always have to live with the things we do.
"Look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase".
No matter how much we regret, what we do to atone them, our bad deeds leave scars, proof behind them.
Love it. I love all Staind ballads and this new one doesn't disappoint!
