Song lyrics
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

this song is truly incredible. it proves blink is deep. deeper than most people think. the fact that they based this song on a suicide letter totally blows me away. mark, tom and travis are amazing.

This is an amazing song! Its really shows that Blink 182 can think about other stuff than just sex. This song has a lot of meaning for me and I'm sure its a song many can relate to. "I traced the cord back to the wall, no wonder it was never plugged in at all." I think they are trying to say that they thought their life was going good but in the end they never really knew what it was all about. This song is deep!

Omg Im like in love wit this song. Its so sad & i can relate to it so well! i kno wat its like to be real depressed & i was cuttin my wrists aswell. Listenin to this song kind of helped me thru that time seeing how other people go thru the same sort of thing. Blink 182 showed they can be really deep aswell not just funny.one of my other favourite blink 182 songs is what's my age again¿ lol ya an i think its great they dedicated it to the guy adam....also..wen i heard the lyrics. "traced the cord back to the wall. no wonder it was never plugged in at all" i didn't think they were supposed to be taken literaly.. ya neways ...that was a long post sori

This is a really good song and very touching. It is so real and not just a joke like a lot of other blink songs. They rock and they are awesome at this song live, way better than on the album.

I love the piano near the end of the song. So beautiful. I remember when it came out..I was about 11 and was in yr 5 at primary school. There were about 20 of us -guys and girls-and we used to sit on these seats at recess and lunch. and we would brake out singing the chorus. We didn't know what the song was about though. We would just break out singing:

I never conquered, rarely came
16 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

We didn't know what it meant. W just sang it over and over. Good times
