A história começa na área da Nova Inglaterra, quando o vocalista Aaron Lewis e o guitarrista Mike Mushok se encontraram em uma festa de Natal em 1993. Mushok trouxe consigo o baterista Jon Wysocki, e a ligação de Lewis com um baixista (que posteriormente saiu da banda e deu lugar a Johnny April) completou a banda.
Levou tempo até a banda se estabilizar, e concertos intensos na parte nordeste com outros astros do rock ajudaram a banda a vender mais de duas mil cópias do primeiro álbum.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
This is my first tab. I'm sure of 95%. It's one of my favorite song of Staind and nobody transcribed a tab for it. This is the acoustic version not the studio of this song and very easy to learn. For the who wants the album version I'll try to tab it soon. If wants this song or other b-sides of STAIND message me at [email protected] btw I speak french, sorry for my bad english J'AIME LES PATATES EN TABRNAK!

And for the bridge it's the same thing than the chorus.
Lyrics:
It's 3 AM it's cold outside and you can't sleep Is it from your conscience talking to the skeletons you keep Every time you try to speak only craziness comes out And I can't turn the other cheek And you can't help how this comes out
(Chorus) So when did you decide to embrace what you hate to survive Cause that's not what got us here
It's 8 AM and still no sleep But you don't care I don't know why I keep on calling Does it get us anywhere? Cause every time I try to speak You never let my words come out And I can't turn the other cheek I can't help how this comes out
(Chorus) So when did you decide to embrace what you hate to survive Cause that's not what got us here
(Bridge) Honestly I don't know how you could see Something you once saw in me Just another volunteer To wonder if you ever lie awake in bed and think about the things you said Your dedication shows that you can't see you're eyes are closed And all the promises you made to me they seem to fade and leave me with this disappointment That these words can never show
When your ride is over and you're hanging by a thread When your house of cards is falling just remember what I said
(Chorus) So when did you decide to embrace you hate to survive Cause that's not what got us here
(Bridge) And Honestly I don't know how you could see Something you once saw in me Just another volunteer For you to bleed
