Growing up lyrics blink 1828/7/2023 Key Lyrics: “But everybody’s gone, and I’ve been here for too long, to face this on my own. This is also the first year of your life where you will have to stop and think for a brief moment when people ask, “What’s your age again?” Either way, you’ll be paying for things with money you still don’t have. At 23, you’re either still too low on the totem pole at work for people to take you seriously, or you’re still in school with what seems like no end in sight. Synopsis: The only good thing about turning 23 is the fact that you can reference a Blink-182 song as a reason for no one liking you for an entire year of your life. What’s my age again? What’s my age again?” Key Lyrics: “Nobody likes you when you’re 23” and “My friends say I should act my age. Nights out on the town will now only take place primarily on the weekends, and you’ll want those “nights to last forever.” This is the year you’ll really learn to appreciate a good weekend night out, as Monday mornings will now consist of you vaguely explaining your weekend to coworkers you don’t like. At 22, you will try to hold onto everything that was fun about being 21, while slowly gaining more and more responsibilities. Synopsis: For a lot of people, 22 is their first year out of college. Forever and ever, let’s make this last forever” Honest, let’s make this night last forever. Key Lyrics: “Let’s go, don’t wait, this night’s almost over. This will especially ring true on your 21st birthday. You’ll have nights where you “turn the lights off” and rely on people to literally “carry you home” after a night out. On the bright side, the main reason you won’t enjoy getting up in the morning will be due to the fact that you were enjoying the shit out of the night before. You may be waking up for an especially early morning job or an early morning class, and you’ll begin to realize that mornings aren’t as easy as they were in high school. Synopsis: “Say it ain’t so.” – This is something you will mutter to yourself while slamming the snooze button many early mornings in the first few years of your 20s. Well, no – that’s just me.Key Lyrics: “Say it ain’t so, I will not go. People say that sounds like Angels on a Blink record. The first song I sent over was Up All Night. But we accomplished it and that’s the big thing. "We only wrote songs together for three days. Out of recording for a year, we were only in the studio as all three of us together for a total of one or two weeks. Mark was in his studio in LA, I was in San Diego, everyone was so busy. If we were to start now we’d be much more unified. What was it like making a record together after so much time away from Blink? On their first album for eight years, Blink returned with their darkest effort to date. If you use a Vox and you ring out a chord it only fills that one specific spot in the spectrum and you need other things to happen.” A Mesa/Boogie is like a nuke: you plug it in and it fills up every piece of the sonic spectrum. “I went to Voxes and Fender ’65 Twin Reverbs together. We shouldn’t have ever thought that way but I did so I stuck to such a specific template. I was always stuck in this framework that it had to be certain way because we could only perform it a certain way, and people would think that we’re cheating or something.
