Staind - For You Lyrics
To my mother, to my father
It's your son or it's your daughter
Are my screams loud enough for you to hear me?
Should I turn this up for you?
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way too fast!
The silence is what kills me
I need someone here to help me
But you don't know how to listen
And let me make my decision
I sit here locked inside my head
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way too fast!
All your insults and your curses make
Me feel like I'm not a person
And I feel like I am nothing but
You made me so do something
'Cause I'm fucked up because you all
Need attention, attention you couldn't give
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way too fast
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you said
The silence gets us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way too fast

Staind For You Comments
I love skinny to lol sup
Silence is better than the fighting
Aawwww mommy and daddy didnt hug me enough...... Suck it up and move the fuck on
Don't be a whiny bitch. Everybody has problems so stop being an over sensitive pussy
Posers.
Think this song is relate-able on so many levels for so many. Growing up in modern times, parents' attention is diverted - rationed-off to the "important" stuff - work/financial provision, sports, friends, church...? How often do parents attend parent/teacher conferences, go to their CHILDRENS' sporting events and cheer them on. How often do we spend time with the family for meals, evenings in or just because? We all have 24 hours in a day - don't let your children suffer in silence, alone. Before you know it. They grow up to not want anything to do with you or your 'legacy.' It is them/the next generation who will suffer most for our selfish misuse of our time, talents and energy.
Was experiencing the slow death of a relationship and couldn't connect with anyone anywhere. Always said the wrong things, looked the wrong way. I wore this song OUT! Sigh! Memories...memories!
High School days!!
The music industry is a complete shell of what it used to be.
Who still listens to staind in 2020? Like it up
Saw him at Aftershock 2019. A fucking legend!
will mounts Staind will always be bad ass mo matter how much time goes by! Reminds me of my teenage days 🤘
Fuck you! The fucking thing is popular. Fuck your dumb like seeking post
Staind on the Disturbed 20th Anniversary tour this summer!!! NUMETAL IS BACK!!!! OOH AHH AHH AHH AHH
Greetings from 2020.
Suddenly remembering Staind. It's been a while.
Omg I thank god for my wife 17 years ago she made me buy this album cuz she said I would like it at the time didn’t really kno much about the turns out she was right we where teenagers at the time I’m bout to turn 37 and I’m still a fan
omg imcrying i forgot about this song...
Here for 2020
WhO iS lIsTeNiNg In 2020
*2020!!;)
Back in 2001 again boy was this song was meant for my parents.
Still better than new rock
I <3 aaron Lewis
Anybody that got hurt inside them guys I need attention you dum fuckin bitch
The silents Get us nowhere!!!!
What's with the terrible quality?
"this silence gets us nowhere" too damn true.
What girl. Wants me
Feeling this so hard today. Depression is no joke
This my everyday life 2019 struggles
If you guys are fans of Staind, may I also recommend Nothing More, P.O.D., Depeche Mode, Deftones and some Stone Sour as well? They help me unwind the way Staind helps me. Hopefully they will for you as well.
A few songs by Metallica as well; My Friend of Misery, The Unnamed Feeling, Fade to Black, Welcome Home (Sanitarium).
I can list more if anyone likes the taste and wants more.
I'm 31 and listening to this song still. Holding on to things more than half my life ago. Still unsure of how to let go of the times I was hurt, betrayed, scarred. It's nice to know that I'm not the only messed up person though (for lack of a better word).
I want to let go of the past so badly but nothing I've yet tried has worked. Sharing my feelings through this comment and empathizing with song lyrics are the closest I've come to finding peace so far.
I'm open to suggestions and conversations. I know this isn't a mental health website or anything, but odds are that if you're a fan of Staind you'll know where I'm coming from.
I feel ya brotha :(
Can totally relate to this post. About 7 years ago I was in a girl that turned out to be an alcoholic and pill abuser (sleeping pills) then shortly after we broke up my dad went onto develop COPD and alcoholism. I'm 37 years old and my family life is shit, not married nor kids and haven't had a normal and healthy relationship with a woman. Pretty sure mentally I'm fucked lol 😆
I know exactly where you're coming from. The love of my life just ended our beautiful relationship. She was such a stubborn ass. She has served two tours in Afghanistan, and had terrible things happen to her in her last relationship. I just wanted her to let me in, and she pushed me away. It's a fresh wound, and I don't know how to feel. I've never been so hurt in my life.
@R J Give time some time. You probably won't heal 100%, but you'll be able to function and feel happiness again.
@gmu_alum08 We're all a little mentally fucked up, but it's nice to know we're not alone. It's good to share feelings because it'll help others share theirs and we can start progressing into healing.
Remember that you're not alone and that time won't change things, but new experiences will help you see the past in a different light.
Who's listening in 2019 anyone
This reminds me of the relationship with my father. He was temperamental and an alchohol. He'd get in fights with my mother daily, calling her and my siblings names, threatening us, even making scenes in public or even family events. All of our road trips killed with bad vibes because of all the arguing. I used to lock myself in my room everyday because I never knew if he was going to be nice to me or not. I had to move into my car to escape the fear
❤
This Song is helping me to stay alive...
stay strong dude
@Kundi ❤
Don't forget to breathe... <3
I remember listening to this song back when my mother beat me until she saw blood. It gave me a voice when I had none. Ive not spoken to her in 14 years. Well now shes dying a slow death in a nursing home...karma is a bitch aint it?
My older brother used to blast this band on the way to school every day back in like 2001-2002. I remember thinking the band was whinny. My brother is a lot more sensitive than I am. I grew up in a very abusive household and bands like this spoke to my brother. I was angrier so I listened to other things. What I find interesting today is there's no music like this anymore.
When I was a teenager I used to play this song every time my parents stepped in my room. It was EXACTLY how I felt and I didn't know how to communicate. They ignored me for a while then played me a song. Basicly lyrics "get over it" repeated. That's cool. Turns out the cops were super interested in what I had to say and got me out of there. Years later this song brings me right back and I'm so glad I had it to try to reach out and ultimately realize it was a lost cause.
I'm picturing like some contraption that you rigged to the door to play the song when your door opened and another one to rewind the tape to the beginning.
I'm sure it was probably on your computer or something and you just clicked the play button, but until told otherwise, I'm gonna picture the former scenario.
The whole "cop" bit has me curious.
What a classic. I still rock out a ton to this in my car. Staind is so good. Should've seen them live dang
So sorry
"The silence gets us nowhere "
Are the teens today were okay? I mean back then we have music to represent social issues, and today music is all about unicorn and gold. I hope everything does okay for you
2077 cyberpunk listeners?
This song is how I was treated when i was growing up.. Made to feel i was nothing.
Emo with lots of angst
Your guys’ 2019 comments are making it difficult to disregard the video and only read comments.
I like how the cords are laid all strategic and angsty and stuff.
Damn.. just noticed how much I relate to this not even kidding
I love the fact that Arron isnt afraid to sing about autism. Living with autism all my life its hard to let people know you have it they always assume your fine. This song speaks the truth of us autistic people. Thanks Arron. And the rest of the stained band.
October 3rd 2019
💜💜💜 still my favorite band!
My birth parents left me at 3. I have autism and was diagnosed with anxiety, depression, and PTSD from childhood trauma and abandonment. I want to yell this song to them. I'm lost cause I needed attention that they didn't give
Whose here to remember the old days and also get out of the stuck into same stuff?
My shit!! Gets me everytime!!
Song reminds me of the good times when I'd be hanging out with the boys, and my girl, playing pool and just playing songs like this on the speakers
Murph Adventures Why past-tense?
Can't beat the 00's freaking epic
Pussified youtube has got to bleep out every fuckin cuss word acting like it offends someone..fuck your feelings..cry about it
i still love Aaron Lewis.
Still relevant 2019 🙋🏼♀️
This song describes my life(
2000 🤘
The silence gets us nowhere way too fast
I sit here locked inside my head...
Omg, relate to the MAX!
It’s amazing how he can sing both metal and country
I was abused as a child and I related to this too well
The anthem for every teen in the mid to late 90s and how we felt with parents
Anyone else here whose not the favorite child??
Nick Hill As humans, most of us believe we're not to favorite family member. It helps us to become better and better until the day we realize it never really mattered. Of course, this doesn't apply to people like Mayweather Jr., Kanye West, etc. who hold no regard for anyone but themselves. I can't help but laugh at the behavior of egomaniacs/narcissists. They're so absurd.
"All your insults an curses make me feel like I'm not a person". That hit home. These people aren't "cry babies". Unless you've been through it, you don't get to say shit. Unless you were constantly told no one would want you that's why they were stuck raising you. Unless you were constantly belittled an demeaned an insulted until you felt you were no better than the dirt on the ground. Hell not even the dirt because according to them at least the dirt could something. You have no right. "Don't eat that you'll get fat and who will want a fat girl to love, no one. No one will want you want anyways because you're to tall, females aren't suppose to be tall. Can you do anything right? How stupid are you?" It isn't home after that. Its hell.
Love the build up in this song
Censure is something horrible.
I bet the driver's name is Chad
⏳mtv when was a good Channel
2001 miss that year when i was started skate
1878 listeners?
Damn only 2 million hits in 9 years sad
great song!!1 check out my vocal cover in my channel!!!
Excellent tune I just cant get over the fact that videos from the MTV-TRL r sooo douchey & over the top
This song is dedicated to my deadbeat dad.
A.K.A. "GO F%$# YOURSELF DAD."
A song about physical & emotional abuse from you fucking PARENTS. The ones you're lead ti believe who love you & care for you the most.
Me and my dad had problems, i remember waking up to him yelling at my little sister who complained she wasnt happy & him calling me a goofball and not in a fun way.
I like to think i made it up to my dad in the last year of his life. I know he caught his parents arguing and never argued with my mom when me & my sisters were awake. They waited till we were asleep, sometimes waking up & hearing the argument, sometimes they waited till we were out.
I like to think I made my mom proud. I like to think my mom & dad were still happy when they died. I like to think me, Aaron Lewis & his daughter broke the cycle of fighting in our lives.
💜💙💚💜💙💚
Country boy
still here
yes any time always
2019 BR!!!
Absolutely love the intro to this song. Sounds so badass, good pump-up song.

Doesn't matter how alone you feel in this world there are people experiencing the same pain as you is.
Corerok Sebastian I needed that. Thank you.
A greatest band, omg that feeling
Last quality skid row album
Should’ve never gone to country music😂
Unfortunately one of those days were silence was broken and I heard words I can never forget
I wonder how many kids and young adults watched this video back in 01 and fuck it I'm not having kids and the friends say why didn't you have kids they staind for you video is the reason
Anos dourados. Saudades
Hey, Ms.Jemna, what's up? Yes, I know, I piss everybody off. It's a talent. Yeah, i know what yaw want me for. I know, what my Paremts here want. That isn't gonna happen. I am pissed and their isn't much you can do. I sent the messages. I am a God-killing psychopath they were torturing and whose life they are taking away. So, yaw wanted Lucifer, so fucking bad. Well, I crammed him up everyone of your asses. I was a terminal child. I have Battered Child Syndrome. I can't have children. They took my Drake and hurt him and laughed. So, I massacred everyone.
best song in its day
Not gonna lie this song has a place in my heart and will probably always make me cry
Wow. That was my shit when I was in my teens. Yessssssss I love this song.
This song is still the jam
How have I never seen this video before. It perfectly depicts the lyrics.
