Creed - Away In Silence Lyrics

2:49. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Mark Tremonti on vocals.

14 days sober today. Recently found this song and I’ve never had a song describe my current situation. I dated the love of my life for 2 years and I let it all waste away because I drank so much and didn’t care about her like I should have. Now that I’m finding the power to be sober she doesn’t believe I’m not the man I used to be. It’s weird because I thought about cutting my hair before hearing this song and Scott Stapp did the same thing. One day at a time. Maybe she’ll believe me one day. I hope it’s not too late at that point.

Its sad that songs like these are so tremendously underrated.

2019 Br ❤

the chemistry between scott and mark was relived one more time in this album. this song is really up there as one of Creeds best

This track was written by frontman Scott Stapp to his wife, Jaclyn, to mark the day back in November, 2006, when she almost walked out on him. Stapp explained that this event was the turning point in finally confronting his well-publicized demons, which included depression-fueled bouts with alcohol and drugs. "That's the day that rock star with the long hair died," he said. "I had to go a thousand feet backwards to move forwards, to get back to what I was before 2002, rediscover myself mentally, emotionally and spiritually, then grow from there. By no means have I arrived at my destination, but the issues that would have devastated all that I loved in my life are now gone. I originally wanted to translate the title of the song into Arabic because my wife is from Jordan."

Three years later but I had to lol at that, he sounds real insecure about Christians lol
They may not, or have not(Dunno if they are still together) been a Christian band but they have plenty of Christian themed music, :P

After i heard this song for the 3rd time stright i hit my knees.

can't get it out of my head

I like Creed they made unical music, diffrent-real muisc,not sweet, stupid music like now becaome....I like real muisc,not techno itp-music must be have soul-Creed made deeply music, and tkank for relam music Creed,I listen you when I was younger, and now I listen too;-)

I know a lot of people relate this song to human relationships..but in my point of view it refers more to spiritual birth and growth...

not really

Thought he wrote for his wife?

2:45 is so awesome. Mark is actually a really awesome singer. I'm glad he's starting to sing more.

Just simply amazing!

Still making good songs although the 90's and early 2000's were there best

My ex husband wanted me to listen to this song,it is amazing but we can never be again.

wish i hadnt walked away.....just when we were trying to work it out....God took him away.
if the love is there you can work thru anything...never know what tmarrow will or wont bring!!!

Actually its about how he wants god to forgive him for his sins when he was about to abandon his bad years ago. Then he wanted gods forgiveness and his bands forgiveness for letting him back into the band. "Not the man i used to be i changed" is showing this. He explained it in an interview but love works too! :)

Love how their songs are from the heart, good stuff maynard!

Awesome song, I can relate

What a beautiful song about love....wow! so beautiful!

Im not the man who I used to be.. I changed :)
F y B <3

I try do all 3 at once :O

Tremonti - i might say genius

Kick ass album for the first time listened to it

If this makes any sense, these guys make sad songs filled with happiness.

Shutup stop fighting about fuckin shits and jjust hear this precious music sorry bad english

lol its not that hard to believe that someone miss identifies them. stapp and tremonty took all the credit for creed for a long long time. but mark has grown up since then lol.

This is beautiful

Oh and if you didn't know they are going to try and put an album out this year! I am going to tell everyone I know. They deserve another platinum album!

Yea MAB has one speed, and it kills ;)- those three have always done a great job of making the riffs fit the singer and the mood to be portrayed.

WOW! Interesting! I can't find anything Michael has done mellow? Is there another side of him some where? :) This seems my favorite now. "Rain" coming on strong and more.. I wish Mark would play more like this with (Alter Bridge and with Myles Kennedy's tremendous voice) Mark Tremonti, Scott Phillips and with Bryan Marshal back on Bass. (These three Magical Musical Band members can do anything!

@Clayton139 Some people may not know, but he helped his technique by getting help from Michael Angelo Batio. He is a lot more versatile now than he was when they first started Creed for sure.

OMGosh! Mark Tremonti's acoustic and mellow electric guitar work on these songs are tremendous...! We need more of this Mark!

Best slow Creed song period.

@iijumark you know that Paramore did A LOT of covers and also took ideas from different bands. I like paramore and they were a good band. Also I think its just your imagination/hearing

@iijumark this riff was on tremonti's instructional dvd which came out a little more than a year prior to this album.

love music + Creed = spectacular

*_____*

I HAVE COME FAR TO EVER GIVE UP, MY FRIENDS COME FIRST, MY FRIENDS.

I never gave up on Creed when they broke, I knew they were too good of a band to break for a long time :D

Creed Rulez !

caraca eu amo o creed sempre vou amar desda primeira muisica que eu ouvir e pra sempre vou gostar !! s2 dari tudo pra conhecelos!!

@burnmehdown214 You know phillips is the drummer, right?

everything about creed's music is full of soul........from the vocals to the killer guitar and simple drumming.....just perfect

9 are still the same as they used to be !!!

its mah song......its 2 gud!!!!!! awesome!!!!!!!

I love when tremonti starts to sing the backups at 2:50

Timothy Valles Me too it’s too bad they shelved their 5th album and moved on to solo careers to die and be forgotten by other than a few hundred thousand loyal fans.

@burnmehdown214 Thumbs up if everytime you hear a great song like this, you just cycle between airdrums, air-bass and airguitar, while mouthing the lyrics of the song and everybody thinks you're weird for that, but you just don't give a flying f**k!

i discovered CREED it was back in 2003 or 2004 (i dint really remember the year) I found out that they broke up in 2006, and now I rediscovered them, just right now!

@SouljaSkull Seems like he's become a much stronger singer since Creed 1.0, I remember having to really listen to hear him before.

@professorbastardizer and the creed vs alter bridge crap... it might be cool if myles kennedy and scott stapp and the rest of the gang should all team up and make a TRULY awesome band!

they are back?

@humanoidcontent from like 2:47 to 3:18 yeah thats mark

@pjkr123 maybe, maybe not. but just as sweetsongman1 said, its the thought that counts and few people would be able to describe creed in a better way! :D

@pjkr123 maybe, maybe not. but jsut as sweetsongman1 said, its the thought that counts and few people would be able to describe creed in a better way! :D

Is that Tremonti singing the background vocals?

humanoidcontent Yes it is!

T: I love thing song very much. Elle est trop belle, j'aime trop trop trop :)

@burnmehdown214 damn how come your comment have many thumbups?
does anyone really know who creed is?

@spjfrat phillips is the drummer and marshall plays bass

This song speaks to me right now, I'm having relationship problems and this fits perfectly! When my girlfriend and I hang out today I'm going to play this song in my truck!!! It will be an apology to all I have done!! Thank you Creed!!

I saw him a month ago, AND HIS VOCALS WERE FLAWLESS. Get off the internet and so see their show if you think im wrong.

Like the new songs

So happy theyre back ... I got to hang with them for a day back in 2000 ..was heartbroken when they broke up and elated when I heard they were back together, just saw them live on this passed thursday, love em .. great guys , awesome talent ..hey burnmedown just wanted to let u know that Phillips(Flip) is the drummer and Marshall is the bassist ..

They don't sound the same anymore.

Red Hmong True, but as Smash Mouth says in All Star: “All that glitters is gold. Only Shooting Stars can break the Mold.”

@crivera88 My theory is, with Scott moving around like a spaz the way he does live, he's not focusing on his singing. Also, they recorded this CD RIGHT BEFORE they toured last year, so I'm sure his voice was hurting the whole tour, which is why his tone is worse. He sounds way better now than last year though, look up some videos from this year.

@burnmehdown214 True that, but why does Stapp sound off/flat live? Studio manipulation?

@spjfrat Damn right we are!! Loved this band in highschool and for the few years after highschool and I'm glad they're back now that I'm old enough to really appreciate how great they were compaired to the crap thats now popular...

@j202020 No they are not. Scott Stapp and the other members of the band have specifically said in past interviews that the band is not a christian band. Scott Stapp is a christian, some of his songs are about religion but not even half of them. Do some research you idiot, " time to expose and evangelize". Religion has had long enough to make itself look stupid. Its time for them to put down the jesus juice and shut the fuck up.

wonderful song ... exactly in that situation .....

@j202020 They are not a christian band. Stapp is the son of a pentecostal preacher. His christian background is what lends to his lyrics but Creed is not a christian band and never has been. The album title is full circle and when he's talking about being entitled to overcome...he was probably talking more about his drug addiction.

@j202020 nowhere has it been said that they're a christan band, because they aren't

A Poole Just think: If the declared themselves as a christian band, how many millions more would hate them? This music is healing to ALL people no matter what. Many of the songs do unintentionally come out with christian themes and questioning but that is because of his background. Scott Stapp and all the members are Christian and love and believe in God now, but they never were straight up a christian rock band.
*Just to Clarify*
Hope you liked the explanation!

this new album sorta like shinedown and pearl jam, i like it

we can rebuild and forever we can go on

i love this song

Te alejaste en silencio,
Te alejaste para respirar,
Te detuviste y volviste sólo para decirme adiós.
Estoy rogando por tu partida,
Estoy rogando que te quedes.
Ya no soy el hombre que solía ser, he cambiado…
