Just Stop
Disturbed＀ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just stop enough of the venomous critical comments on my life
Just stop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life
Sit back a moment, and look at the miracle starting in the light
Don't stop a moment, and let the incredible happen knowing that

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
To be the best in the world

Just stop with all of your little deliberate problems with my life
Enough of all the crippling, terrible pain we feel inside
Step back a moment, remember how the miracle started in the light
Take back the torment; I'll only enjoy this moment knowing that

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
I know that
All that we want is to feel inside
Some kind of comfort
With all that we've done
We can hide
We'll be the best in the world

All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
From the moment that we found ourselves drowning
All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
From the moment that we found ourselves drowning

All that you want is to criticize
Something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time
I know that
All that we want is to feel inside
Some kind of comfort
With all that we've done
We can hide
We'll be the best in the world
We'll be the best in the world




Just stop enough of the venomous critical comments on my life
Just stop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life

Lyrics:
Just stop enough of the limitless critical comments on my life
Just drop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life
Step back a moment and look at the miracle started in our life
Don't stop the moment and let the incredible happen knowing that

All that you want is to criticize something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time to be the best in the world

Just stop with all of your little deliberate problems with my life
Enough of all the crippling, terrible pain we feel inside
Step back a moment, remember how the miracle started in our life
Take back the torment and I won't be enjoying this moment knowing that

All that you want is to criticize something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time, I know that
All that we want is to feel inside some kind of comfort
And all that we've done we can't hide, we'll be the best in the world

All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
For the moment that we find ourselves drowning in
All I ever wanted was to be a real source of compassion
For the moment that we find ourselves drowning in

All that you want is to criticize something for nothing
And all that I want is forgiveness one more time, I know that
All that we want is to feel inside some kind of comfort
And all that we've done we cant hide
We'll be the best in the world, we'll be the best in the world

Just stop enough of the venomous critical comments on my life
Just drop the judgment and all of your pseudo-involvement in my life

@@pattonrierson4319 I mean it was totally out of context, totally unasked for, totally unrelated, totally random, and totally weird.

While bashing people for no reason (like saying those characters are bad, and thus their opinion is bad 🤦‍♂️) is completely childish and uncalled for... A bit of self awareness never hurt either.

This may not have been the place to randomly post this unrelated comment if you weren't willing to put up with a few negative responses... I'm sure there are plenty of Anime videos to comment on that will receive a much warmer, more understanding response.

We've all gotta know that just walking up to someone and telling them all of the things that you think are awesome, is pretty off-putting, right? You're operating under the assumption that what you like is so interesting, that this person will definitely want to hear about it. This person with their own likes and favorites, now has to be disrupted from minding their own business to hear what your favorite Anime characters are, completely unsolicited? It comes off as conceited.

Something like this takes people who may not have wanted to be an ass, and likely never would have been an ass, and has them saying things they know they don't mean. People who aren't totally happy in their life (which there's nothing wrong with, that includes a large percentage of people). They may see this, and either be put off by the fact that this person has the audacity to assume their interest. They may be put off that this person seems happy, and is trying to make conversation about things that they enjoy. Maybe they can't even find it in them to enjoy things, to have hobbies themselves, because they are depressed.

If there's one thing I know, it's that sadness, emptiness, loneliness, pain... They are all so much easier to manifest as anger, and it's so easy to take your problems out on other people because of this. This is the internet, you've got a lot of different personalities from all walks of life, some comments should expect certain replies, and frankly I'm not surprised this comment was met with that reply.

Two sides of every story, doesn't make it right at all.. but I do try to understand where everyone is coming from regardless, makes it easier for me to flip their negative comment into some common ground with which we can steer the conversation toward a more positive place.

Sometimes I just like to berate absolutely everyone and be an internet warrior from hell too though, either one. Hahaha

If you made it this far, I commend you. It couldn't have been easy. I do hope you are happy, and taking care of yourself. I also hope you love yourself, because I love you. My God, Morgan Freeman, loves you. And you're an absolute legend. Peace out brothers.

When you think of Disturbed, this song always seems to be under the radar. It's definitely one of their best for sure!

@Augready

Me and you know it.

@kendrickscruggs3539

I agree

@johndickens7071

I agree 100%

@TaraZaraChara

I love songs that have heavy verses that lead into lighthearted melodic choruses

@warrenjohn

So do I. “Suffer” from Staind is another example of a song like this.

@toddymctodderson5291

Definitely the best song on that album and one of their most underrated songs of all time

@tarosskozlov8791

Difinitely one of their most underrated songs.

@flayerthehatebound8920

For real. I listen to this album a lot lately and this is the song that always sticks with me

@bradleysharp5028

Wouldn't say the best, but up there. Also it is unfairly underated
