Their sound matured considerably into the '00s, becoming more indebted to moody, muscular alternative rock, thanks in no small part to the crack-shot drumming and arrangements of Travis Barker, who joined in 1998. The trio's 1995 debut, Cheshire Cat, and 1997 commercial breakthrough Dude Ranch illustrate a fondness for breakneck-speed punk and sharply honed melodies, but blink-182 connected with bigger audiences in the later '90s because their rebellion offered both comic relief-see the nudity-heavy video for "What's My Age Again?", from 1999's Enema of the State-and seriousness, tackling the trauma of suicide ("Adam's Song") and divorce ("Stay Together for the Kids"). The San Diego band, who coalesced in the early '90s around co-frontmen Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus, blend upbeat tempos, catchy hooks and bawdy humour with lyrics that understand the pain of adolescence-and life in general.

Well thats how it seems to me, anyone agree? He is learning about relationships and heartbreak, as is she. The "I guess this is growing up" means what it says. So basically he is saying to the girl that when she realises she doesnt really want her new bf she will be in the same position as he was when she broke up with him at the start, with no friends to turn to. All the I's are now you's and the my's are your's. "But everybody's goneĪnd you've been here for too long". If you listen he is actually saying "And it's happened once again The end of this verse is him saying that she is only with her new bf to distract herself from feeling hurt and that in the end she will want to come back to the first bf but he wont want her back by then, "The charade, it won't last "And maybe I'll see youĪt a movie, sneak preview ", i think the sneak preview is reffering to him seeing her in her new relationship. The next verse is him running into her at the moives.

"But everybody's goneĪnd I've been here for too long". The chorus is him wanting to turn to his friends to help get over the girl, but whilst he was with her he pushed his friends away. He is looking back and wishing he could have done better "I'm writing the report on losing, and failing". The second verse is him hearing about her new bf "I heard he fucked her". He just wants to know why she is leaving, "It's alright to tell me what you think about me". The first verse is her breaking up with the boy, "I know that your leavin, You must have your reasons". The girl leaves him and finds somone else. General CommentThis song is about a break-up. The charade, it won't last, when he's gone I won't come back You'll show up and walk by on the arm of that guyĪnd I'll smile and you'll wave, we'll pretend it's okay
