Mid-Week Song

 

Veteran alternative rock trio Blink-182 has a new album coming out October 20, "One More Time." They're older and wiser now than their late '90s / early aughts heyday. That's what they are going for in the eponymous track to the album, looking back on times past (including the near death experience of their drummer Travis Barker) that have brought them to this time. 

Strangers, from strangers into brothers

From brothers into strangers once again

We saw the whole world, but I couldn't see the meaning

I couldn't even recognize my friends

Older, but nothing's any different

Right now feels the same, I wonder why

I wish they told us, it shouldn't take a sickness

Or airplanes falling out the sky
