Pain is the second single from alternative metal band Three Days Grace's second album, One-X.
According to the band, the song is based on the pain and loneliness encountered on the road during their tours. The band describes this as when people are inches away from you, but you feel miles apart. They allow themselves to be immersed in pain and depression, while they try to listen to a voice that tries to help them break free of this pain.
