STAIND
- For You Lyrics / with translationsTo 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?
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
This silence gets us nowhwere!
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 decisions
I sit here locked
inside my head remembering everything you've said
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 f*cked up because you are
Need attention, attention you couldn't give
'Cause I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
This silence get us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way to fast
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?
I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
This silence gets us nowhwere!
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 decisions
I sit here locked
inside my head remembering everything you've said
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 f*cked up because you are
Need attention, attention you couldn't give
'Cause I sit here locked inside my head
Remembering everything you've said
This silence get us nowhere!
Gets us nowhere way to fast

✔️
When we search for the deeper meaning hidden within the lines, the Staind song 'For You' is an exploration of the human heart angered by the fact of 'not being heard or valued', pretty much the lyrics show the vocalist's disappointment in not being understood or helped. The analogy of 'locked inside my head' is a hard to do without one suffer and total isolation, where indeed, a person's total worth is determined by the attention and acknowledgment they get. 'For You' mostly talks about agony, loneliness, heartbreak, despair and self-examination. Simultaneously, the song brings up the issue that battle over communication, emotional suffering and neglect and comprehension seekers are still the main aspects of the story. It is told through the lyrics that the character is going through emotional suffering, family disputes and self-esteem problems, situations that might not be appropriate for children younger than thirteen years. The intensity of the situation is signaled by the extensive use of foul language as well as the expressiveness in being 'fucked up', therefore a PG-13 rating is justified.

Its about a young person who's never been paid attention to, screamed at, neglected. Probably since birth. This is a song of deep pain.

To me the song means ;Anger, hurt, abandonment, selfishness, cold hearted...
When I was younger every time I was angry and hurt I would listen to this song. This song is to my parents. ...
