| its about parents...look at the chorus... You thought you were there to guide me You were only in my way You're wrong if you think that I'll be Just like you our parents think they are our guides in life. but to us they are blocking the paths we want to take. we want to take risks and if we mess up its our fault. when we grow up almost all of us do not want to be like our parents. it says your wrong if you think i'll be just like you. we have the choice to be different. i know that i am who i am and my parents dont really like it but too freaking bad. this song is about parents | |

| I took it as a song dedicated to their parents. Very good song, but the video is horrible. It is really funny, but it doesnt seem like it was intended to be. A friend & I were watching it the other day when we both just started busting out laughin, & 3 Days is one of his fav bands. I hope they make a new single/video soon("Wake Up", if i had my choice). | |

| ahahahaha, this is so lame. all of three days grace's songs are the same 'i hate u, and u, and its all your fault, boo hoo' throw in some heavy chords on guitar and spiky hair and you have yourself a chart topping band. what happened to the real days of music, where talent, hard work, and artistic quality really made music good. not this stupid pointless anger. | |

| How can you not see how it possibly has to do with parents? It's widely believed that kids grow up to be like their parents. "You thought you were there to guide me" what do you think that refers to? Parents are supposed to guide their children through life. This song reminds me of my parents. Trying to push me to be the way they want me and saying that everything I want to be is stupid. I get chills when I hear this song because it reminds me of my parents so much and how much better I'm doing now that I'm not letting them be in my way. | |

| dead on the inside, you are right on the matter of the song being about parents, and Aliceinwonderland your ideas of how music should be mad is right but the music industry is growing and new ideas a comming out, pointless anger is one of those types of ideas that have mad music, so DONT DIS THE BAND, OK | |

| here is what the video means: see how they wear the plastic masks on their faces? not just the band, but the other people in the video. mostly everyone in the world wants everyone else to be like them, what they consider to be normal. a person has the so-called responsibilty to be like their parents and follow in their footsteps for example, but they don't want to do such. they consider their parents to be fakes of the corporate world but in the end they might just end up like them. basically the plastic masks in the video symbolize everyone fake in the world, and everyone that tries to change everyone else so that they could be like them. overall, the video is not stupid, it actually has a point. | |

| yea although this song never mentions parents, its immediately wat I thought of when i first heard it. Maybe just cause Im a teenager... but your parents are generally the people you don't want to become but end up becoming anyway. | |
