Staind is a four-piece alternative band from Springfield, Massachusetts. Staind self-released their debut album, Tormented, in November 1996. Their second album, Dysfunction (produced by Fred Durst and released on Elektra Records), was their breakthrough record, and has sold more than two million albums in the United States. However, it was the release of the single "Outside" off of The Family Values Tour '99 compilation that sent Staind into superstar status. With heartbreaking lyrics and great acoustic guitar, the single garnered massive radio airplay and was a major force behind sending Staind's next album, Break the Cycle, into multiplatinum status.

Schizophrenic Conversations Lyrics
Staind
Are you afraid
Afraid of the truth
In mirrors staring back at you
the image is cracked
but so is the view, yeah
and the strength of a tree
begins in the roots
that I tenderly buried into you
At least now the storm
Can blow me away
(Chorus)
So crawl inside
my head with me
I'll show you how
it feels to be
To blame like me
Should I be afraid
Of this face that I see
In the mirror staring back at me
So cold were the days
When I listened to you
And you SAY THAT I'M WEAK!
So show me the proof
Because I still exist in spite of you
But I won't compete
With you every day
(Chorus)
Schizophrenic conversations
that I'm always having with myself
I hear these
voices in my head competing maybe I could use a little help
I still have schizophrenic conversations when there's no-one around to hear
And I long for solitude and peace within me
Pouring out all the anger and the fear
So crawl inside
My head with me
And I'll show you how it feels to be
Fucked up like me
I'll show you how it feels to be
To blame like me
And change like me
