Breaking Benjamin
Formado en 1998 por Benjamin Burnley (vocalista), Jeremy Hummel (baterista) y Jonathan "Bug" Price (bajista), obtienen un fuerte seguimiento local en su estado natal, Pennsylvania. La banda debe su nombre a un incidente cuando Burnley, quien solía hacer covers de Nirvana como solista en clubes nocturnos, tiró casualmente el micrófono al suelo, rompiéndolo. La persona propietaria del micrófono en el escenario llegó y dijo: "Denle gracias a Benjamin por romper mi maldito micro". A comienzos de 1999 se hacían llamar Plan 9, pero en el 2001 la banda cambió su nombre a Breaking Benjamin. Aaron Fink y Mark Klepaski, amigos de Burnley, dejaron su anterior banda, Lifer, y se unieron a las filas de Breaking Benjamin como guitarrista y bajista respectivamente. Según la banda, el logotipo que los identifica, una variación del nudo celta, fue sugerido por un fan quién lo encontró en un libro de tatuajes. Este se puede apreciar tatuado en la muñeca izquierda de Ben Burnley, Aaron Fink y Mark James Klepaski, y en la derecha de Chad Szeliga.
Rain
(Letra)
Take a photograph it'll be the last
not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here
i don't have a past i just have a chance
not a family or honest plea remains to say
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Is it you i want or just the notion of
a heart to wrap around so i can find my way around
safe to say from here you’re getting closer now
we are never sad cause we are not allowed to be
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
To lie here under you is all that i could ever do
to lie here under you is all
To lie here under you is all that i could ever do
to lie here under you is all
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
All the world is waiting for the sun
all the world is waiting for the sun
not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here
i don't have a past i just have a chance
not a family or honest plea remains to say
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Is it you i want or just the notion of
a heart to wrap around so i can find my way around
safe to say from here you’re getting closer now
we are never sad cause we are not allowed to be
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
To lie here under you is all that i could ever do
to lie here under you is all
To lie here under you is all that i could ever do
to lie here under you is all
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
Rain rain go away
come again another day
all the world is waiting for the sun
All the world is waiting for the sun
all the world is waiting for the sun
