I'm on hospice, I am 43 years old. I remember listening to Staind in what I realized later was an abusive home. This song touched me in the same way their songs did those many years ago. Dysfunction was my first disc. Obviously their sound has slightly changed but they are still the same Staind I grew up listening to. Getting through the hard times looking forward to better days. I'm still looking for them... Soon... Soon.
How are you doing now? Hopefully when this message gets to you everything is good with you and your health and family my friend!!! Sending you mad love From Newark NJ!!! Stay safe out there and God bless you and your family!!!✌️
I am sorry for your life struggles, Music has gotten me through many hardships. Just remember God stands beside you daily and there will be better days.
I've overcome addiction, abuse, attempted suicide and watched my friend die in my arms which caused me to relapse for a time after. There have been some very dark times in my life that I wouldn't wish on anyone but I'm here to tell you...things can and will get better. Talk to someone. It doesn't have to be a therapist. Talk to a friend. Talk to your family. Look yourself in the mirror and say out loud that you need help and that's ok. The first step to the rest of your life is yours to take. Staind has been with me since my teenage years and Aaron's vocals have always spoke to me on a personal level. I chose to live again 13 years ago. I'm now 41, sober & happily married to my best friend, own my home and have a very healthy family life. I wish nothing but the best to every one of you. You're not alone. Your feelings are valid and you can do this. Much love to all .
I've dealt with addiction, being abused, and trauma to. Dealt with betrayal and rejection to. All for the entirety of my life except the addiction. I got past the addiction. My ex friends I tried to talk to didn't help and only made it worse. They called me a faker with no proof and everyone believed them. Ik they didn't have proof because they made public posts with no proof. All it was, was the conversation we had. Just how it goes though. I stand up for myself I'm suddenly the bad guy but if someone is abusive with me "it's just one of those things." I'm about to try trauma group therapy since I haven't got a call back from my clinic so I think I'll be able to go. I really hope I'll be able to open up maybe even relate to those who have been through similar things. I'm tired of being in my own hell...
Everyone unsure of themselves in life should read your post. Most people will recognize their struggles while intense to themselves could be worse without a course correction. You found yours, amen to that, while all boats rock you can find better days if you stay the course and find calm waters.
45 years old and have more than I could have ever asked for...... and this song left me crying. No amount of things can cover up our pain. Im so grateful to have had Staind at all points of my adult life to help me through it all. Never would have made it.
I'm 32. I should have been dead a long time ago. But now, I listen to Staind with my wife and we push through the hardships together. I wouldn't be here without her. She is my "better days", when I think back to the time when I didn't pull the trigger. I sincerely hope you find a light, brother
I can always count on Stand ttalking to my heart with every new album.. I am a 58 year old addict that has been clean for 3 years from pills and even worse Fentynal. i dont know how many times I had to pray to God because I know I was overdosing...Some how I made it to rehab and spent some time in the hospital sick for weeks. I now depend on a addiction clinic wherecI piss in a cup to get my next box of Suboxone films just to keep from getting sick. My health between my high blood pressure issues to hwving 4 back surgeries since 1987 and in the last 2 years I was naking coffee in the middke of the night standing waiting for the pot to fill up to poor me a cup.. I feel asleep standing up which sounds crazy. i reinjured my back and I have slowly not been able to stand up and now walking with a cane.. I listen to this song from time to time and juat cry... Dreaming of better days... I just think its to late...Besides, there are others in worse shape than me...
Just keep pushing forward and praying for healing...it is real. If i could tell you my story of multiple overdoses, then i got clean and at 10 years got hit head by a truck going 55 while on riding my harley. They i waa dead on the road, brought back, followed by 41 straight hours of surgery, living through it to be told i would likely not walk, have colostomy bag, lose sexual function due to how severe my pelvis break was, etc, etc. Spent 4 weeks in hospital, refused morphine upon release and learned how to take pain. 2 years later, i walk, work and have all my facultys. Saturday i was seeing tool with my beautiful woman. Bro....my point is......your mind and body is capable of overcoming more pain that we can realize. Taper off that shit when you are ready, and if you have to use the miracle leaf of kratom....i promise its a much better life when some doctor is not in control of hpw you live it. Stay strong
@@phillipmccutcheon4937 Thank you brother for replying.. I can't imagine being nailed by a truck and all the surgeries with all those injuries along with the colostomy bag and all that come with it. I wish you the very best and thanks fore sharing with me. Prayers brother...
I've been dealing with depression and anxiety pretty much my whole life, I'm 35 now. Feels like it's never going to get better... Just a dream that will never come true.
Suffering from really bad episodic depression that makes me really wish I was rather dead this song speaks to me. hoping for better days as you live in the sorrow and try to scavenge something out of the horrible pain you feel while quite literally the only break you get from this feeling is sleep and dreaming of better days ahead. But thanks to family and my amazing girlfriend I've beaten it 3 times in the last 2 years and is hopefully getting better. Love you Staind!
Every day you wake, believe in you and your family and girlfriend! What you believe in will become Better Days! Stay positive and overcome each day, 1 day at a time! 👍
I can promise you NO MATTER WHAT....my friend, there's always something to look forward to. Take it from someone that lost their dad at 18 and am now 43 and wishes he was here to see these kids he helped create 🍺
It's strange how a man like Aaron, who is living a life so many people would envy, still can write these beautiful lyrics that hit home with so many of us. You're songwriting is unmatched, please stay with staind making bangers!
The life people envy is really the life they'd get and never want if they could second chance it. Don't be deceived. Pleasure is temporary... Misery is forever.
4 years clean ! I escaped the clutches of meth addiction. I lost everything including myself. One day at a time and dreaming of better days I get through!
Their ability to mix some of their heaviest songs to date with almost Chapter V type songs and it doesn’t feel choppy. They all feel like they belong on the album. Worth the wait so far
Aaron you have saved my life for over 23 years now. You have never failed to tell true life stories through your lyrics that hit home. From finding your music in 2000 and then actually meeting you in 2006 was one of the BETTER DAYS of my life. 39 years old now and here we are in 2023, still listening to you pushing me forward. Thank You Aaron 🥹
Oh my freaking gosh! Every I mean E V E R Y TIME I hear this song my eyes leak profusely. There are no words I just can't describe what this song lyrics, tune, his vocals ALL of it does to me. Needless to say, it TOUCHES MY SOUL. Thank you!! BTW since a lot have commented on their ages..I'm 63
This brings me back to 1999, thank you Staind, through my life and struggles your music has ALWAYS been a staple in my life. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication and of course your words..
I just lost my sister this past saturday. We listened to aaron our entire lives since we were young, i am 44 and shes 40. Staind is one of our favorites. My sister and I were best friends. She suffered from addiction and mental illness most of our life. I was always there. I had to love her from a distance over the last year or so because it was effecting my children and I to much. And i had to pray she would find her way. She did not find her way out of her darkness. We dont know if it was an overdose or if she commited suicide. Idk if we will ever know. Im sitting and turned on music for first time and 3 songs we loved played right from start and then THIS. THIS HIT ME. i feel like she wanted me to hear it. I know that she is at peace. I have to hope for betters after I wake up from this nightmare. Thank you for this song. I needed it.
Every Staind album there has been a song that has resonated with me. This album this is the song. There is a reason that Staind is this black man's ALL time favorite band! Lyrics that transcend all ages and races. Thanks Staind for all you've helped me through during the years...............
As someone in my mid 30s, wanting forever to be married and have kids and having better days. Life has really beaten me the hell out of me, been through the wringer financially and honestly my body and my mind and me have reached our breaking point, of “I’ve had it and just went better for myself” been fighting for years to get my life on track. I have 3500$ of debt to pay off and a personal loan and I just want to put all of it behind me and move forward. Song speaks to me, don’t we deserve better then the pain? Yes we do
Yess this song hits different. Your not alone I’m going through the same thing except for the marriage part that must be hard and can say I wouldn’t have made it this far without faith. Seriously it took me a minute to realize the debt I have doesn’t define me (just continue paying it off) and neither do the circumstances in life. We got to keep pushing…onward and yonward friend💚
How touching this song is things have been so hard and sometimes it feels like nothing will ever change but we have hope and dreams for better days hold on to faith
Over ten years of chronic pain and everything Dr’s have tried has failed. This song has put together the words I never could! I’ve been a Staind fan since my teen years and was lucky enough to see them live. This one will definitely be on repeat in the playlist!
This song has so many different scenarios. Hits on so many levels. It just depends on what you're going through or dealing with that catches you. The words are so powerful.. if this song gets to you it's like telling you to reevaluated you're life and how can you get back on track with feeling normal/satisfied with the life you live.
This hit home for me way too hard. I almost lost my dad a few years ago and besides years of being angry with him for things that were long over with I learned to forgive and enjoy the time we have together. Enjoy every moment you have with those you love as you never know when they will be gone.
Of all the songs this absolutely incredible band has written, this is by far one of the best for me at a time where I am going through a very difficult part of my life. Thank you Aron, Mike, Johnny and Sal.
I'm 40 years old. I have A 17 year old son and a 6 year old daughter that are both autistic. There my entire world. I don't know what I would do without them in this world. I recently started The most beautiful woman in the world She is my rock I love her so much. Even though I made a lot of bad choices in my life a lot of my I wish I could take back. But I thank God everyday for having my kids my girl my family and awesome friends that I have. I meant a lot of heartaches and a lot of pain in my life and even though life got me kind of rocked right now I pray to God every night for a better day 😢😢😢😢
Miss you dad, cry every night wishing we had talked before you died. Now I got this burden for the rest of my life, Aaron Lewis was your favorite singer. I know you’re somehwere out there ❤️
You guys saved me through so much this life gives and takes away from you. Thank you for coming back and making this record and for this song. RESPECT!!!!!
I keep sayin it this album is one of Stainds best yet ive listened to this cd since i got it and its still in my player! the best album thats came out of 2023 Staind please stay togetherand keep giving us awesome music like this !!!❤❤❤❤
I've been feelin' outta control There's no healin' between all the roads And there's no comfort, am I losin' my soul? Is it too late to just let 'em go? And someday I will wake up And everything has changed Until then, I will dream of better days Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain Until then, I will dream of better days I tried to hold on, but it slipped through my hands Do you believe in a second chance For all we've been through? Don't you think we deserve so much more than this hurt? And someday I will wake up And everything has changed Until then, I will dream of better days Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain Until then, I will dream of better days Of better days I've been feeling so out of control There's no healin' And someday I will wake up And everything has changed Until then, I will dream of better days Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain Until then, I will dream of better days Someday I will wake up And everything has changed Until then, I will dream of better days Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain Until then, I will dream of better days Of better days Of better days Of better days
OMG. What an incredibly beautiful song. If anyone here has been moved to tears like me listening to this, Hello to you and keep holding on,better days are coming.
Thank you so much for this amazing beautiful song this is helping me so much right now as I'm going through the hardest time of my life I just lost my sister to brain cancer last week so I say thank you for this song 😢
Trust me l'm now living in better days but my god it was a hell of a fight & this song can come true what ever you do don't give up because 17yrs ago l did & waking up in ICU 3 days in a coma l woke up so angry because I did wake up that wasn't my plan but now I'm so grateful I did because now I'm living my better life see it does happen!!! Hung in there ok!!! ( Fight ) 1434 Staind!!!♥️
This album is perfect, IMO. Every song on this album hits in a personal way like no other Staind album has. Kind of sad in a way, but helps me in it's own way I suppose. I can't wait to hear you guys live for the first time in October. Please never stop.
I hope you will come to germany, when you would come, I will be there. Thank you STAIND for your music. Now I‘m 37 and I listen to your songs till I was 16. Greetings from Würzburg, Bavaria/Germany
You know I feel that all these talented artists and with all the songs I've ..posted amazingly make me feel like they wrote these songs just for me. Thank you, my friends
Currently going through difficult times and I just can't hold my tears every time i listen to this song... I know for fact that can always get worse but, someday I will wake up and everything has changed Until then I will dream of better days.
Cry out to God, he will show up, give you strength, self control and joy...i promise, he did for me. 25 years of shame, depression and suicidal thoughts....erased, wiped clean
Ten p.m. Hey I just gotta say Damn right guys u fellas Keep on keeping on ..U r rockin us plumb down here in the BootHeel in Big Mo. state..Tanks a Mil!!!!!!!!!
I am dreaming of better days now. This song spoke to my soul and yes had me in tears, it just resonated through me. Beautiful song, sung by the perfect person. Thank you, I needed this.💙
80% of the time, I'm a zombie, stumbling my way through life. But hearing this song for the first time in the car while driving my wife home, I broke. She held my hand as I pulled over and ugly-sobbed for the first time in months. Thank you, Staind, for helping me let it all out

You’ve got this😊
Way to go!
And Staind does it again... always find a way to emotionally connect with their fans. I will always think Staind is the greatest band of all time.
My dad was a big fan, he passed a few months ago and this song, and the rest of the album has been helping tremendously.
Sorry for your loss, I hope you can find peace in the great catalogue Staind has to offer.
Holy shit… RIGHT in the feels. 4 years with depression/anxiety have not been easy, yet another Staind song that leaves me in tears…
Just know, Better days ahead, are facing you now 😊
I've been dealing with depression and anxiety pretty much my whole life, I'm 35 now. Feels like it's never going to get better... Just a dream that will never come true.
All the emotions i thought i didn't have left in me are right here in my heart as i listen to Aaron's voice..This song is Beautiful 🖤❤️
It truly is amazing how Aaron's voice with the lyrics to a certain song can hit you in the soul at the moment in your life.
Aaron's voice is soothing to my soul!!!
He has such an amazing voice. He never disappointed. Not once
Hold those emotions dear to your soul. Even tho they hurt at times that is what keeps us from becoming monsters.
I guess you haven't heard of Pete Murray because this must be a cover of Pete's version or Pete's version could be cover as well
I can not get enough of his voice. Fan since 1995
Suffering from really bad episodic depression that makes me really wish I was rather dead this song speaks to me. hoping for better days as you live in the sorrow and try to scavenge something out of the horrible pain you feel while quite literally the only break you get from this feeling is sleep and dreaming of better days ahead.

@@allstarscopepoor is absolutely not a fucking blessing wtf?
A very humble man that's battling demons of his own. That's how he can write lyrics we can all relate to somehow ❤️
The life people envy is really the life they'd get and never want if they could second chance it. Don't be deceived. Pleasure is temporary... Misery is forever.
Every walk of life deals with ups n downs and the Better Days in life!

11 years sober from meth and other drugs. Keep up the good work! One day at a time.
It's a hard road but when you are sick and tired of being sick and tired you can make it happen.
Congratulations happy 4 years
I'm 3 years clean from the same horrible addiction, very proud of you because I know how difficult that was. ❤

He always connects in every single word he sings. Just amazing. I wanna see him live so badly.
Saw them in July my second time never disappoints!!🙌🙌😀😀✌️✌️✌️
I have seen Staind several times and love them. Seeing Aaron solo and playing his acoustic music is my favorite! Great voice!
I couldn't recommend it more. His voice sounds even better in person

This & Here and Now are my favs right now. Hits my ❤ hard. Beautiful
Both of these almost made me cry just remembering life. Those better days do come though thankfully.

I have a hard time sharing my feelings. I feel weak and useless. I just keep thinking I'll get there. And it'll be ok. No matter what!
This hit home for me way too hard. I almost lost my dad a few years ago and besides years of being angry with him for things that were long over with I learned to forgive and enjoy the time we have together. Enjoy every moment you have with those you love as you never know when they will be gone.
This is everything I didn't know I needed from Staind. It's my life. Not ignoring the pain we live with, but always ready for tomorrow
Yes Yes Yes just Yes!!! Y'all are still doing it!!! Thank you!!! Love it!!!
Of all the songs this absolutely incredible band has written, this is by far one of the best for me at a time where I am going through a very difficult part of my life.
Thank you Aron, Mike, Johnny and Sal.
This is the "Everything Changes" of this album. Well worth the wait guys.
This is "Take This" for me. I ugly-sob
He has touched my life in so many ways...love his writing.
I'm 40 years old. I have A 17 year old son and a 6 year old daughter that are both autistic. There my entire world. I don't know what I would do without them in this world.

I can't stop listening to this song......you guys hit it out of the park again with this new album!!!!
You guys saved me through so much this life gives and takes away from you. Thank you for coming back and making this record and for this song. RESPECT!!!!!
This is the one song I wanna hear acoustic from this album. Such strong song writing throughout this whole album. Goddamn this is solid.
thank you for this.
His songs are so emotional. So real. This is life. I love everything about Aaron and Staind. ❤️
I'm so happy Staind is back making music.
I can't watch this or hear it without crying. They always know how to reach a place in my soul
I keep sayin it this album is one of Stainds best yet ive listened to this cd since i got it and its still in my player! the best album thats came out of 2023 Staind please stay togetherand keep giving us awesome music like this !!!❤❤❤❤
We can connect with them by their music. This is real music
I've been feelin' outta control
There's no healin' between all the roads
And there's no comfort, am I losin' my soul?
Is it too late to just let 'em go?
And someday I will wake up
And everything has changed
Until then, I will dream of better days
Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain
Until then, I will dream of better days
I tried to hold on, but it slipped through my hands
Do you believe in a second chance
For all we've been through?
Don't you think we deserve so much more than this hurt?
And someday I will wake up
And everything has changed
Until then, I will dream of better days
Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain
Until then, I will dream of better days
Of better days
I've been feeling so out of control
There's no healin'
And someday I will wake up
And everything has changed
Until then, I will dream of better days
Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain
Until then, I will dream of better days
Someday I will wake up
And everything has changed
Until then, I will dream of better days
Still living in the sorrow and learnin' from the pain
Until then, I will dream of better days
Of better days
Of better days
Of better days
I can relate to this song so much. My heart got broken by a man i loved very much. Just trying to get thru the pain. My favorite song on the album!
The BEST is YET to COME~
Make America Godly Again!

I'm glad that you recovered! Yes, better days will come! Keep on Fighting no matter what! I hope you have a Blessed day!
My favorite one off this new album. Should be all over the radio.
This album is perfect, IMO. Every song on this album hits in a personal way like no other Staind album has. Kind of sad in a way, but helps me in it's own way I suppose. I can't wait to hear you guys live for the first time in October. Please never stop.
This is the album of the year!
one of the best song in the album,amazing album,still my one of my fav band.❤🤘
Crying like an idiot off this. So sweet, sad and beautiful. Damn it Staind
I hope you will come to germany, when you would come, I will be there. Thank you STAIND for your music. Now I‘m 37 and I listen to your songs till I was 16.
Greetings from Würzburg, Bavaria/Germany

I know for fact that can always get worse but, someday I will wake up and everything has changed
Until then I will dream of better days.
I love staind
Been a massive staind for 25 years. Staind is one of my favorite bands.
Aaron as always makes my exact feelings and situations into a song
This is the one! This is the one that brings out my emotions and feels like old staind to me. This is in my forever playlist, thank you guys!
My favorite “non-single” song on the album. Easily.
Heard this on 106.9 Rocks in Columbus, GA. I dig it
Cry out to God, he will show up, give you strength, self control and joy...i promise, he did for me. 25 years of shame, depression and suicidal thoughts....erased, wiped clean

@cath hello, how are you doing it's nice meeting you here.
Now I don't know if this or "Here and Now" is the saddest song on the album...
Well done.
As the World grows cold and darkness spreads over the land, Staind comes back to show us the way to the Light
80% of the time, I'm a zombie, stumbling my way through life. But hearing this song for the first time in the car while driving my wife home, I broke. She held my hand as I pulled over and ugly-sobbed for the first time in months. Thank you, Staind, for helping me let it all out
Perfeita a música amo staind 🎸 🎸
This freakin man... what a great writer and vocalist
Staind always with amazing music 👏🏻🤙🏻
Gives me hope living at the bottom barley getting buy every month this gives hope and restores the soul there's better days ahead
Another one song that you could have written for me... thank you so much Staind
