I know, I don't believe it
All my life so scarred
What for, you can't conceive it
Everything you fear
I'll be, you couldn't live it
I whisper in your ear
So loud, why can't you hear it
I'm OK
You think, I couldn't find it
Pieces falling down
Shattered, nothing behind it
In my mind alone
Lost here, I'm separated
Crawl deeper in my hole
Safe here, from what I've hated
All the demons in my head won't leave me
I know, I can hear them
All the sacrifices made for nothing
Don't show, can't believe in
Wanna show you that I'm good for something
I can't, you won't let me
All your artificial words won't heal me
Because you can't accept me
And I hate my face
And I hate my world
And I hate my ways
I'm not OK
I'm OK
I know, I don't believe it
All my life so scarred
What for, you can't conceive it
Everything you fear
I'll be, you couldn't live it
I whisper in your ear
So loud, why can't you hear it
I'm OK
"Trust in me can't trust I know, I don't believe it "
..uh ...WRONG. It's "Trust in me can't trust I'm the whore, I don't believe it"
.....o_o fuckaaaas.

Sounds like a guy who hates himself because he cant fit in with anybody. Sending him deeper into depression and making him hate everything about life. Kind of relates to alot of people.
dislike in ones self the dislike in ones self pride. Not being about the relate to anything, being low on a scale.
When you arent accepted and no one attempts to like you or gives you a chance and you hate yourself for it.
self hatred...not just a "i think im fat" dis-liking...but a self hatred...that burns you and everything around you up..
the writer has been so hurt by many people he doesnt trust anything or anyone anymore.. all he wanted to do was fit in but nobody would accept him for who he was.. he want's to 'show people that he's good for something' but nobody will listen or pay him mind. It's about acceptance.. and he WANTED to be accepted but he never was.. so he thought there was something wrong with him and learned to hate himself and everything around him ' i hate myself, my face, my world, my ways'. -- ie an elaboration on tool.freak's ( maybe I should start reading other peoples interpretations before I start to write a paragraph of my own )
This song is mostly self-explanatory. But some people have asked me what the "I'm not OK" "I'm OK" parts mean. They are representing the nonstableness of pyshcohological state.
i know exactly how aaron feels. never has a song expressed my feelings so well.
In my opinion, this song has the single greateast, single most perfectly written, probably the most relatable lyrics of any song I've ever heard.
"And I hate myself and I hate my face and I hate my world and I hate my ways."
I don't know about you guys, but when I hear this, it's like, everything that I am not, all my imperfections, all my shortcomings, everything that makes me not good enough, it just makes me hate myself even more.
I love this song and this CD is probably getting more playtime in any of my radios that any other. Aaron Lewis uses simple, plain, ordinary words and makes myself and millions of others feel terribly inadequate as people and it is sheer brilliance.
Staind fucking rules.
