To me, this song is something that lies close to the heart. Not just cause Staind is my favorite, but because I can relate. In my eyes, this song is just about all the faults you see in yourself and all of the times that you just want to scream and yell, but you can't. Not in front of that one person. They seem just so beautiful in your eyes...their soul, their mind...and you don't want to ruin that by what you feel you hold inside. And although it's so hard at times to do, you know you have to. Everything that you know you've done wrong is darkened in their eyes for some reason, and you can't understand that. You can't see why they don't find you hideously dark. I know that other people out there had to have felt this some time. But it's something hard to let loose. That, or maybe Aaron Lewis is the only one that can put it into words so well.
