Blink-182 - Adam's Song [Perfect Audio Quality]

Words cannot express how truly amazing this song is, not only for it's lyrical content which empathizes with the people who feel this way, but also the way the music itself makes you feel.
So, instead of using words I pieced some pictures together to try to symbolize the deep meaning of this song.
However, nothing can really come close.
The pictures I chose, in my opinion, reflect the almost blissful loneliness this song provides. I imagine empty trains and distraught girlfriends laying out on their beds alone after their lover's have killed themselves. I think of violent yet serene wilderness. Black and white photos deliver a lot of emptiness that comes with this song.
Of course this is all coming from me, not the band or the record label or anyone else involved in the production of this song/album. Don't let that stop you from enjoying it though. Feedback is always great. [Perfect Audio Quality]

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
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

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 set 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
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

I never conquered, rarely came
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'd survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

[cardinalfan524]

@TheGreendayfan29 send me a link if you find one bc i searched a ton once and never found anything except for that fake website with a made up letter

[TheGreendayfan29]

@cardinalfan524 No its real dude mark said this in an interview. cant find it anywhere anymore but ya.

[cardinalfan524]

@TheGreendayfan29 they have never said that, its just a huge assumption that the fans have made up. they just said that the song is about overcoming depression.

[TheGreendayfan29]

@Bleedzn0m0re its about a kid whos name was adam. he committed suicide and mark got an email about him. so mark wrote this song for him. Adam felt verry alone and sad that he felt the only way out was to take his life. its really sad and you can even find a copy of the letter he left before he committed suicide online. hope this helps.

[cardinalfan524]

@Bleedzn0m0re failure. listen to the lyrics and you tell me..

[samlordofq]

@Bleedzn0m0re this song is about a boy who commited suicid, he sent his suicide note to tom and they made this song

[insayndevilchild]

@egades856 I thought he DID have friends, the lyrics, give my stuff to all my friends, anyway, I could be wrong, I'll go read the letter.

[Cole15Magic]

@Bleedzn0m0re Not a mega fan myself- but I think... suicide?
