Three Days Grace

Songwriter: Adam Gontier Neil Sanderson Brad Walst

[Verse 1]
Can't stay forever
I know it
Can't send for longer
Than I meant to
I breathe
In silence
Convince the thought
It's not
For you

[Pre-Chorus]
Strangely thought of all the things
Passing out and falling down

[Chorus]
To greet a day
When I can see two feet in front of me
To be free of life
If we can stand out in the rain
It's a great old time
For you to wonder why you are here
To be free of life
If we can stay

[Verse 2]
It's not resolving
In all these words
The same
Congruent
And it's not the strong in
In my man's hand
That weighs
Me down

[Pre-Chorus]
Strangely thought to all the things
Passing out and falling down

[Chorus]
To greet a day
When I can see two feet in front of me
To be free of life
If we can stand out in the rain
There's a great old time
For you to wonder why you are here
To try to greet a greater life
If we can stay

[Pre-Chorus]
Strange thought to mourn the flies
Passing out and falling down

[Bridge]
To greet a day
When I can see two feet in front of me
To be free of life
If we can stand out in the rain
It's a great old time for you to

[Outro]
For you to
Wonder why you
Why you
Why you
Why

Three Days Grace is a Canadian alternative rock band formed in 1997 and now based in Toronto. Consisting of lead vocalist Matt Walst, lead guitarist Barry Stock, drummer Neil Sanderson, and bassist Brad Walst, the band is best known for their metal-influenced, hard rock sound and clever songwriting.

TDG grew out of Groundswell, a five-member high-school band founded in 1992. With Adam Gontier as lead vocalist, Neil Sanderson as drummer, Brad Walst as bassist, Phil Crowe as lead guitarist, and Joe Grant as rhythm guitarist, Groundswell released one album, Wave of Popular Feeling in 1995. That same year, the band broke up, and it was not until 1997 that Adam Gontier, Neil Sanderson, and Brad Walst got together as “Three Days Grace”.

Working with local producer Gavin Brown, the trio re-worked a number of their past songs and compiled a demo album. After handing it to EMI Music Publishing Canada, TDG produced their smash single “I Hate Everything About You”, which would be released in 2003 alongside their eponymous debut album Three Days Grace through American label Jive Records.
