The end of an era. SUM41s last ever single released. 27 years of music ended.
Sum41 was one of the few first rock bands i ever got into growing up. Very influential in my taste for what composition made a great song. Prolly why I enjoy both screaming and singing in songs more than any other genres. My teenage years were formed by the lyrics of many of these tracks on Does This Look Infected? Then they followed up with CHUCK.
I've only ever gotten to see them live one time. Glad i did. Derek and Co. May you ever find success in whatever it is you're doing with your lives now. Your music has helped me and shaped my life, I'm sure there are thousands of others who'd agree. Here's to getting older.
Far in, ohhhh. Wait, we singing?
Take everything left from me!
All! To! Blame!
[Verse 1]
How can we still succeed taking what we don't need?
Telling lies, alibis, selling all the hate that we breed
Super-size our tragedies (you can't define me, or justify greed)
Bought in the land of the free (land, free)
[Chorus]
And we're all to blame
We've gone too far, from pride to shame
We're trying so hard, we're dying in vain
We're hopelessly blissful and blind to all we are
[Post-Chorus]
We want it all with no sacrifice!
[Verse 2]
Realize we spend our lives living in a culture of fear
Stand to salute, say thanks to the man of the year
How did we all come to this? (you can't define me, or justify greed)
A greed that we just can't resist (resist)
[Chorus]
And we're all to blame
We've gone too far, from pride to shame
We're trying so hard, we're dying in vain
We're hopelessly blissful and blind to all we are
[Post-Chorus]
We want it all, everyone wants it all, with no sacrifice!
[Bridge]
Tell me now, what have we done
We don't know, I can't allow
What has begun to tear me down, believe me now
We have no choice left with our backs against the wall!
[Chorus]
And now we're all to blame
We've gone too far from pride to shame
We're hopelessly blissful and blind, when all we need
Is something true to believe
[Post-Chorus]
Don't we all, everyone
Everyone, we will fall
[Outro]
Because we're all to blame
We've gone too far, from pride to shame
We're trying so hard, we're dying in vain
We want it all, everyone, don't we all...
