I never thought I'd die alone 
I laughed the loudest who'd have known? 
I traced the cord back to the wall 
No wonder it was never plugged in at all 
I took my time, I hurried up 
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough 
I'm too depressed to go on 
You'll be sorry when I'm gone 

I never conquered, rarely came 
Sixteen just held such better days 
Days when I still felt alive 
We couldn't wait to get outside 
The world was wide, too late to try 
The tour was over we'd survived 
I couldn't wait till I got home 
To pass the time in my room alone 

I never thought I'd die alone 
Another six months I'll be unknown 
Give all my things to all my friends 
You'll never step foot in my room again 
You'll close it off, board it up 
Remember the time that I spilled the cup 
Of apple juice in the hall 
Please tell mom this is not her fault 

I never conquered, rarely came 
Sixteen just held such better days 
Days when I still felt alive 
We couldn't wait to get outside 
The world was wide, too late to try 
The tour was over we'd survived 
I couldn't wait till I got home 
To pass the time in my room alone 

I never conquered, rarely came 
But tomorrow holds such better days 
Days when I can still feel alive 
When I can't wait to get outside 
The world is wide, the time goes by 
The tour is over, I've survived 
I can't wait till I get home 
To pass the time in my room alone

48 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal All hail BLINK 182 for such a great effing song This is my favorite song not only from Blink 182 but my favorite song EVER This song is the reason started to play guitar. I don't know which is better, the guitar riff or the lyrics. I like the fact that it is about thoughts of suicide but at the end ever thing worked out. VERY GOOD BLINK 182...yoou guys are my inspiration

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Blink is my Number One favorite band, this song is one of the reasons. At times I have been depressed, never suicidal, this song has been there for me along with Stay Together for the Kids, they have made me cry but have accurately expressed how I have felt many times. BLINK 182 FOREVER A few favorite lines: Tom: "Every once in a while I wonder what it's like to fuck pigs." Mark: "I think Tom's real nice, I think he's good to little animals." Travis: Can't think of one, b/c he is real quiet, but his shyness does not take away from the fact that he is awesome, in attitude, style, and drumming abilities.

5 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Words cant express how great this song is. but it is starting to piss me off that people are ripping blink and saying that the lyrics are stolen. they were not stolen, but very much inspired. Kurt Cobain told people to "Take your time. Hurry up. The choice is yours. Dont be late." and marks lyrics are a reply to Cobain and sayin that he took the advice given. "I TOOK my time. I HURRIED up. The choice WAS mine, i didn't think enough." Blink is clearly not stealing lyrics, they are giving credit to Cobain. People need to recognize blink for their skills and quit trying to point out all the negative. Also, i dont see how any TRUE blink fan could say that blink sucks now and that everything all went downhill from this song/album. I mean have u people ever even listened entirely through the two albums that have been released since this one? How can u say that they suck after hearing songs such as "Anthem Pt. 2", "Stay Together for the Kids", and "Story of a Lonely Guy" on the TOYPAJ album, and songs like "Down", "Heres Your Letter", and "All of This" on their self-titled album? Blink has not gotten worse, in my opinion they have simply changed their style slightly on their new album which is not a bad thing. They still have powerful lyrics, stellar guitar riffs, and hellacious drum beats from Travis, who is hands down the best drummer in rock music ever. People really need to quit with all the criticism and recognize a good band when they hear it. Long Live Blink-182!!! Someone Reply to This!

222 posts	what i really love about blink is that they can joke around and have fun (if you've ever heard "i wanna fuck a dog in the ass" you know what i mean) but can still write deep insightful lyrics such as the ones in this song. i love this song. its amazing.

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I love Blink 182 and when I got the Enema of the State album I thought it was light headed, fun songs but then I heard Adams Song. It's not only my favourite Blink182 song but my all time favourite song. I'm seeing Blink in concert on the 6th December at Wembley and I'm two rows from the front! I love Blink182 and they will rock forever And I respect all you other Blink182 fans you all rock aswell

74 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I love this song sooo much and i read all your posts for this song and I've learnt a whole lot of stuff i didnt know about this song. And that bit about "I traced the cord back to the wall"...i think its about electric chairs or some other electronical thing that could kill you in some way.
