Buffalo-Based rock guru's ninth studio album, Something for the Rest of Us, is out. Can you believe the Goo Goo Dolls have given us nine albums? I can't either.  

With everyone feeling the uncertainty of the times today, GGD decided to express their emotions during this time in our lives. They wanted to connect on an emotional level with all of us. 

Here are the lyrics from the song "Notbroken" which was inspired by a letter sent to a wife from a solider in Iraq saying he doesn't want to come home because he got injured in the war and he feels like he failed her.ll I waited for,

The Goo Goo Dalls - "Notbroken" - Lyrics

All I waited for
was a chance to make you understand.
And tell you these forgotten dreams, we never thought were real.
And if the world should turn its back, you know that I'm still here.


Time won't ever, steal my soul.
We're not broken, so please come home.


Morning comes and life moves on.
And when it changed, it didn't know you belonged.
And I'll still catch you when you fall, through a past that steals your sleep.
And all these words upon your wall, I'd like you to believe.


Time won't ever, steal my soul.
We're not broken, so please come home.
If the world has worn you down,
I'll be waiting, so please come home.


And all that left that broke you down, and I won't hear the empty sounds.
Hopelessly pretending how I know the answer.
Angels light the neon fires, and won't succumb to your desires.
All you are is all I need, you know.


When the world is insane, you get used to the pain,
and you don't even know what you feel.
And I'll be like you, I'm alone and confused,
but you know it's not forever.


Time won't ever, steal my soul.
We're not broken, so please come home.
If the world has worn you down,
I'll be waiting, so please come home.
