| Godsmack – I Fucking Hate You Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I know exactly how you feel. I had a horrible stepfather too. He was manipulative, controlling, violently abusive (both verbally and physically), and a filthy liar. Thinks my mom would be better off without me, when she's really much better off without him. | |

| I would like to dedicate this song to the Westboro Baptist Church. | |
| Metallica – Dyers Eve Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| My ex-stepfather was exactly the same way, but replace the cigarettes, weed, and beer with The Bible. Whenever he would verbally and physically pound his children, he would always use the Bible to justify it. | |

This Grim guy sounds like a douche. I never knew about that story until I read this comment, and I already hate that guy. R.I.P. "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott |

I would like to dedicate this song to two people in my life. First, my ex-stepfather. What a fucking control freak! His story goes like this: "I am your lord and savior. You will bow to me. If you don't like it, then get the hell out of my life." He's treated me, my mother, and even his own children all the same way. He's completely brainwashed his daughter, but my mom and I got out when we had the chance, and I am grateful for that every day. He's a hypocrite too. One day he verbally and physically assaults me to "protect his wife" (because I ended up in a behavioral rehab center for a suicide attempt), and then after I leave he verbally assaults her. How can he even get an idea of "protecting his wife from her own son" if he can't even protect her from himself? Second, this song is dedicated to a jerkwad who came between me and one of my best friends. This jerk started drama between us, trying to turn us against each other, which made people hate both of us for different reasons. Eventually, the drama escalated to uncontrollable proportions, and we eventually had to end our friendship. I have never seen a person single-handedly destroy a good friendship like this. I fucking hate them so much. |

| Journey – Faithfully Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I've never had a girlfriend, but this song still makes me think about a very good friend of mine. We were in a college church group together, and she was just always right there by my side, sharing the good times and fighting by my side through the bad. She was like a sister to me. But then somewhere along the line she just...disappeared, in a sense. Every time I hear this song I can't help but wondering about her. | |
| Garbage – As Heaven Is Wide Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Amberyeah's interpretation pretty much describes a situation I was in about 4-5 months ago. I won't get into it, but if you really want to know, read my comment on "Special" for more information. | |
| Ministry – Let's Go Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is basically a satire song about the war going on in Iraq sanctioned by President Bush. This album (The Last Sucker) is the third in Ministry's "anti-Bush" trilogy. Kickass song, I might add. | |
| Godsmack – Mistakes Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This song makes me think back to a friendship of mine that ended on a very bad note. I've never been able to forgive myself since. It's like normally everything's fine, but whenever I see her around again, I'm suddenly reminded of that fateful day 3 years ago and I'm again overwhelmed with negative emotions ("Free? I don't seem to be, my soul remains tied to your life"), so I can see where this song's going. | |

| Very empowering song. That's all I have to say. R.I.P. Dimebag. | |
| Sixx: A.M. – Life is Beautiful Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Man, this is an emotional song for me. There was a time when I got overwhelmed by academic, financial, and familial stresses to the point where I wanted to commit suicide. But I just toughed it out, went through a temporary period of hell, and then just a couple months ago I heard my brother's best friend killed himself. That night, I was up late when this song came on the radio. Then I found myself thinking about my own suicidal thoughts and thinking about how my brother must have felt when he heard about his best friend, and I just broke down in tears realizing that my life is worth living for the sake of everybody I care about. I cried myself to sleep that night. | |
| Garbage – Special Lyrics | 17 years ago |

The way I see it, a bad relationship can be with anybody, not just a boy/girlfriend. It could be with a sibling, a parent, just a friend, or in my case a stepparent. Issues have gone on with my stepfather about 3 months ago to the point where he ended up getting abusive with me, and at that point, I decided enough was enough. Around Christmas '07 I moved in with my dad and sought psychological help. A funny story is, just as I left one of my appointments, this very song came on the radio. I hadn't heard it before in about 8-9 years, but I instantly recognized it. Back then it was mainly the bass work and the sound effects in the first two verses that made me like the song, but now that I've gotten a chance to hear the song again, I listened to the lyrics, and I'm really starting to like this song all over again because the lyrics are basically everything I want to say to my stepdad but can't. Shirley Manson said it much better than I ever could have anyway. "I'm living without you" - I'm no longer under his control, and now I'm in the process of healing the scars he's inflicted and getting my life back. "I know all about you" - My mom (his wife) wasn't there when the incident happened, but I've seen his true colors first hand, and they were NOT pretty. "I have run you down into the ground, spread disease about you over town" - I've been seeking help all over the place, and everybody I've talked to agrees, this guy is a jerk! The entire second verse - He really seemed like a cool guy who was like a father figure in my life, until all hell broke loose 3 months ago. The chorus - I thought he was special, like a father figure in my life, but I've run out of patience with him and his ways, and now I couldn't care less about him. "Now you're here and begging for a chance, but there's no way in hell I'd take you back" - Pretty self-explanatory. He still wants to be a part of my life, but I will never let him destroy me again. The way I see it, this song is like therapy for me as well. It will take a long time for my scars to heal, but with this song on my side the process should be moving a little faster. Thank you, Garbage. Oh, and sorry for the long post, but this song just means a ton to me right now and I just felt like I needed to get a few things off my chest. |
