Fail to see how destructive we can be
Taking without giving back 'till the damage can be seen
Can you see? Can you see?
[Chorus]
The more you take, the more you blame
But everything still feels the same
The more you hurt the more you scream
The price you pay to play the game
Then all you see and all you gave
And all you step on will know shame
There are no rules, no one to blame
The price to play the game
Empathy, the chosen way to be
Blindly look the other way
While you waste away with me
Can you see? Can you see?
[Chorus]
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
[Chorus]
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game
What you pay to play the game

How About You
If someone else showed you the way
Would you take the wheel and steer?
It hurts me that you're not ashamed
Of what you're doing here
If they jumped off a bridge
Would you meet them on the ground?
Or would you try to claim
That it never made a sound?
Chorus
Everyone plays the hand they're dealt
And learns to walk through life themselves
Not everything in life is handed on a plate
When people think your words are true
It doesn't matter what you do
I sold my soul to get here
How about you?
So you choose to force your hand
What a strange way to make friends
And you always change the rules
So the drama never ends
And you blindly go through life
Judging only by its worth
Just try not to forget
That the meek inherit earth
Chorus
So please don't take offense
This is just a point of view
'Cause I'm the only one who
Will say these things to you
Chorus
Would you take the wheel and steer?
It hurts me that you're not ashamed
Of what you're doing here
If they jumped off a bridge
Would you meet them on the ground?
Or would you try to claim
That it never made a sound?
Chorus
Everyone plays the hand they're dealt
And learns to walk through life themselves
Not everything in life is handed on a plate
When people think your words are true
It doesn't matter what you do

So you choose to force your hand
What a strange way to make friends
And you always change the rules
So the drama never ends
And you blindly go through life
Judging only by its worth
Just try not to forget
That the meek inherit earth

So please don't take offense

So Far Away
This is my life
Its not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I'd never lived before
Somebody shake me
'Cause I
I must be sleeping
Now that we're here
It's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All in the mistakes
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day, and I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be the person that I am today
These are my words
That I've never said before
I think I'm doing okay
And this is the smile
That I've never shown before
Somebody shake me 'cause I
I must be sleeping
Now that we're here
It's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All in the mistakes
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day, and I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be the person that I am today
I'm so afraid of waking
Please don't shake me
Afraid of waking
Please don't shake me
Now that we're here
It's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All in the mistakes
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day, and I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be the person that I am today
Its not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I'd never lived before
Somebody shake me
'Cause I
I must be sleeping
Now that we're here

All the struggle we thought was in vain
All in the mistakes

Yesterday
You don't know what you've put me through
It's okay, I've forgiven you
But in some way, hope it f*cks with you
Hope it f*cks with you
Pre-Chorus
That I'm okay and I've made it through
But who's to say
What you're going through
I say no names
Though I've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like...
Chorus
Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And I wonder how's your brother
Did he end up f*cked up like me?
Lost in himself, crying for help
It's safe to say
I learned to live without a pride
Just a shell, with me stuck inside
A prison, not a place to hide
Not a place to hide
Pre-Chorus (altered)
But I'm okay and I've made it through
But who's to say
What you're going through
I say no names
Though I've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like...
Chorus
Chorus (altered)
Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And I wonder how's your brother
Did he finally pull through like me?
Finding himself, not needing help
I'd like to say
It's okay, I've forgiven you
But in some way, hope it f*cks with you
Hope it f*cks with you
Pre-Chorus
That I'm okay and I've made it through
But who's to say
What you're going through
I say no names
Though I've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like...

Fray
I know that it never goes away
All I feel, Everything I'm not today
So I try and I try
To make everything right
I don't feel like I'm doing it, it affects me
Chorus
You wouldn't listen even if I told you
Who the f*ck am I to say?
You're too busy with the lies they sold you
Another cure to fix the day
Open wide for all the shit they feed you
While the TV defecates
And blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
I know that everything can change
What I need is to open up again
So never again will I look back in vain
'Cause today's not the past
I don't need to relive it
Chorus (altered 1)
You wouldn't listen even if I told you

And blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
Are you satisfied?
I've given all I can
And are you pacified
Or do you want more from me?
Chorus
I've learned that this life's
Not just a game
Just a line between
The pleasures and the pain

Zoe Jane
Well I want you to notice
To notice when I'm not around
I know that your eyes see straight through me
And speak to me without a sound
Chorus
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things
I've already endured
And I want to show you
Show you all the things
That this life has in store for you
And I'll always love you
The way that a father should love his daughter
When I walked out this morning
I cried as I walked to the door
I cried about how long
I'd be away for
I cried about leaving you all alone
Chorus
Sweet Zoe Jane (x2)
So I wanted to say this
'Cause I wouldn't know where to begin
To explain to you what I have been through
To explain where your daddy has been
Chorus (altered)
So I want to hold you

Fill Me Up
I just had to let you know
'Cause I don't always let it show
You give me needed room to grow
And I just had to tell you so
Chorus
You fill me up, you're in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
It's just like poetry inside
To hear you breathing by my side
Like I'm in heaven and I've died
So glad you're with me for this ride
Chorus
I see your face to start my day
Makes all my bad dreams go away
And all the stupid games we play
Wouldn't have it any other way
Chorus (x2)
'Cause I don't always let it show

Layne
I heard today that you were gone
I had to stop and sing along
The song they played to say goodbye
A song that gave
Gave me back life
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
And on that day a child was born
To someone who you helped along
And helped see through his darkest times
Because of you, this child, she is mine
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
The words you said
You made me feel like they were all for me
The words you said
They will always be a part of me
The words you said
You made me feel like I was not alone
The words you said
You gave me all the strength to carry on
So to me you'll never fade
Your life you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
I had to stop and sing along
The song they played to say goodbye
A song that gave
Gave me back life
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
And on that day a child was born
To someone who you helped along

Falling Down
What's happened to you?
It's obvious you've changed
Something deep inside you is probably to blame
Must be lonely up there
With your head out in the clouds
Even though you got there
What does your conscience tell you now?
Chorus
It's never the same on the way down
How does it feel
When your feet finally hit the ground?
When all of your bridges aren't around
And the sandcastles you built are falling down
You had us all sitting right there in your hands
But you had to fall
Because that's how this life is
Got your fingers burned by burning candles at both ends
Now the table's turned
And now your demons are your friends
Chorus
Bridge
So now I question what you're gonna do
Now that everything's caught up with you
You believe the shit you say is true
But everybody's on to you
Life remembers everything you do
Your karma has caught up with you

Reality
The lights are on but you're not home
You've drifted off somewhere alone
Somewhere that's safe, no questions here
A quiet place where you hide
From your fears
Chorus
Sometimes when you're out of rope
The way to climb back up is clear
The walls you build around yourself
I guess they also keep you here
Are you afraid of what they think?
Whoever 'they' happen to be
Or are you hiding from the scars
Of your own reality?
So you sedate and drown in vain
You've got a pill for every day
A suit and tie to mask the truth
It's ugly head is starting to show through
Chorus (altered)

Of your own reality?
Bridge
The monster you're feeding, your lack of perception
The things that you do to fulfill addictions
The light at the end of your tunnel is closing
What is it that you're so afraid of exposing
You'd give it all up
For what's there for the taking
Whatever it takes to keep your hands from shaking
The same things you're thinking might make you feel better
The same things that probably got you here
Chorus (altered)

Tonight
Just try to understand
This isn't what I planned
This ride's out of my hands
So now I'm forced to be something I cannot be
If only I could make you see
Chorus
Tonight, I'm alive
I've watched you all grow up and so have I
Inside this isn't really what I had in mind
I no longer relate to this world of hate
It's forced upon my plate
I tend to disagree, I hope it's not just me
Alone if only I could make you see
Chorus
I had in mind (2x)

Could It Be
Well I don't know what to say
Because there's truth to what you say
I know it kills you I'm this way
There's something different everyday
Chorus
Could it be that I never had the chance to grow inside?
Could it be that my habit is to find a place to hide
Could it be that sometimes I say things just to disagree?
Could it be that I'm only being me?
Not easy living in my mind
A little peace is hard to find
My every thought is undermined
By all the history inside
Chorus
Bridge
I know I hear the words you said
Over and over again
I just can't get them through my head
There's just too many voices
Must be like living with the dead
Waiting for me to begin
To do the things that I have said
And for this I'm sorry
So there's some truth to what you say

Blow Away
Live in my head for just one day
I see myself and look away
The road is showing now on my face
Soon I'll disappear with,
I'll disappear without a f*cking trace
Chorus
Faces that I've seen turn old and grey
I've lost too many friends along the way
Memories I never thought would fade
They fade and blow away
I wish that I could disappear
Unzip my skin and leave it here
So I could be no one again
And never let nobody
I'd let nobody, I'd let nobody in
Chorus
So now the walls are closing in
Because in life you sink or swim
Sometimes these shoes don't feel right in my head
Feel like a book that can't be,
A book that can't be, a book that can't be read
Chorus
I see myself and look away
The road is showing now on my face
Soon I'll disappear with,
I'll disappear without a f*cking trace

Memories I never thought would fade
They fade and blow away
I wish that I could disappear

And never let nobody
I'd let nobody, I'd let nobody in

So now the walls are closing in
Because in life you sink or swim
Sometimes these shoes don't feel right in my head
Feel like a book that can't be,
A book that can't be, a book that can't be read

Thank you to the people in my life

And thank you for the time you sacrificed
All on account of me

F*ck you and the judgments that you make
We're not all perfect just like you, like you, like you

14 Shades of Grey is the fourth studio album by American rock band Staind, released on May 20, 2003. The album continues to develop a post-grunge sound as seen on the band's previous album Break the Cycle, but the songs on 14 Shades of Grey have fewer pop hooks, focusing more on frontman Aaron Lewis's emotions. It is the band's last album to be released from Elektra Records.
The album featured four singles and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, with first week sales of 220,000 copies. By July 2003, 14 Shades of Grey had been certified gold then later platinum.
