Three Days Grace: Pain Meaning
Song Released: 2006
Pain Lyrics
Pain, I can't get enough
Pain, I like it rough
'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all
You're sick of feeling numb
You're not the only one
I'll take you by the hand
And I'll show you a world that you can...

"Pain without love pain can't get enough pain I like it rough because I rather feel pain then nothing at all"
I think he's felt pain so much that he can't feel it and him being so numb about it. He wishes he could feel it agian but what do I know? I'm not Three Days Grace so I shouldn't assume. -
I think it's about love and showing the person about his life and how much pain has come out of it and how much he is starting to like it. How he has so much of it it made him numb which he wishes he could feel it. He heard someone which he wants to feel bad but he can't and he's trying to stop this person from letting it happen but who really knows but three days grace! I love them!

People. Three Days Grace is not an emo band, their songs have much more meaning then, "I want to cut myself to feel something."
This song is about sex, in my opinion. Not in a perverted, bad way. He's saying basically, I like it when you hurt me, its better then feeling nothing. Its just... rough sex people. Great song. -
Are you that daft? it is not talking about physical pain but mental and emotional pain..and in the sense that one would rather be feeling pain or anger than be dead (feel nothing at all) and possibly that anger does in essence feels good and it replaces all other possibly more dangerous emotions (i.e.) depression or suicide...

Being a submissive in a Master/slave BDSM relationship, this song speaks to me completely. I completely relate its words, with the exception of "without love" because a D/s relationship is very, very loving. I can relate to the desire for pain, and the need for it as well. For some people, it completes their entire being.
Please don't judge...try and understand... -
I think this song is about sex. I think by saying "I like it rough" he is talking about sexual intercourse. "cant get enough" probly means he always wants sex and he wants it rough and hard. I don't think it's about depression or cutting.

The song simply is about not giving up on life no matter what it throws at you said so from Adam himself on a live radio interview it may be on Google. basically it says "pain without love, pain can't get enough, pain I like it rough cause id rather feel pain then nothing at all" its saying that pain is your friend it lets you know your alive and so he can't get enough because it lets him he knows he's alive and the "nothing at all" is death.

This song makes me think my razor's talking to me...
-
This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
-
I think this song is about someone having pain and telling them that the pain their feeling wheel alive is better then felling nothing after committing suicide
-
Well, for one I don't understand how some of you have interpreted it to be about sex, you can't ONLY look at the chorus, and you might want to also look at the video, if the song was about sex I think the video would have been a bit different....
I agree with the thing about the lead singer getting clean from oxycottons
but if you look at it from a more universal point of view I feel like it's about depression OR being addicted to drugs, both make you feel numb, you don't care about anything anymore. and I think it's pretty clear what they mean after that, feeling pain is better than feeling nothing. and he is showing that to someone else who's suffering in a similar way. -
He wrote this song when he was in rehab as other songs did in rehab too! This song is not about sex ok?!?!
-
This isn't an interpretation, but I have something to say to everyone sending in their own.
Unless you have cold, hard facts of the band talking about their meaning of the song, don't fucking persecute people and insult them for having a different viewpoint on what you so arrogantly think is correct. -
Pain isn't a curse. It's a gift. It's a gift to feel such incredible emotion. I'm not sure if the band is relating to physical pain, or mental pain. maybe it's both. pain is feeling something. The only other worst pain would be to be immune to it. When you're going through a depression or a shitty time in your life, this song is turning it around by looking at feeling pain as a privilege, sort of.

I know for a fact this song is about lead singer Adam Gontier's addiction to oxycontins. He says it in many interviews. Anyways.. what this song means to me is that he has become so numb because of the drug. Oxycontins are pain relievers, and have caused him to be in a numb state. Adam even says in an interview that the thing he notices most now after being clean is that he can actually feel things now. "I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all" Means he'd rather feel the pain of withdrawal than stay with the drug and feel nothing. He's saying that it's worth the pain............ Maybe I'm wrong, but I do know for a fact it has something to do with adam coming clean from oxycontins.
