Staind – Reply (album: Chapter V 2005)

This song is by Staind . They are my favourite band in recent years. This is such an awesome song! I couldn’t find the meaning of this song anywhere but I’m pretty sure Staind wrote it for their fans “Thank you for the letter that you thought you wrote in vain and for the times you chose to stand out in the rain and wait for me, for me”
When I was in junior high, I was very naughty. I’ve spent most of my time outside of class, annoying all my teachers and interrupting other classes. I was picking on one particular teacher. I made up some stupid nicknames for him. He had a ridicules long beard. He used it to hide his crooked teeth. He was very short and skinny. He was a tiny man covered with lots of hair on his face. One day he was teaching another class and I was very bored because I got kicked out of my classroom by another teacher. While I was outside I kept opening his classroom door. He closed it and I opened it. This game lasted for a couple of minutes until he had enough and when I’ve opened the door again he slapped me in the face. It was quite painful, even though he was a small man, he was quite strong. I was in a complete shock. The entire class had witnessed it. Everyone told me that I should complain about it to the School principal and that he should get fired for hitting me. The following day my teacher was so scared that I’m going to report him that he took me for a chat and he kept apologizing and begged me not to say anything because he might lose his job. At some point I’ve stopped listening to what he had to say, I just looked at him and felt sorry for him with his shitty job and his shitty teeth and his tiny body and I’ve decided not to tell anyone about this incident. That’s probably the first time that I’ve realized that teachers have the crappiest job ever! Of course it never stopped me from humiliating the rest of my teachers all through high school. Check out this wonderful song…
