[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
Here, nights are foggy and weird
Everyone I trusted disappears
Breathing life into my deepest fears
Take, now there's nothing to take
Now you're haunted by your worst mistakes
Watch me sinking underneath the waves

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus (Matt Skiba)]
I don't want to drink about it (Stare it down)
Driving out at 3 am (No way out)
Blood is cold, my mind is clouded (And then I woke up drunken)
How'd I make it here again? (Too much, too much to take)

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Days, I've been like this for days
Hiding underneath the darkest waves
I've been praying for the tide to change
Head, is this all in my head?
Running over every word I said
When they finally found my note, it read

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba and Simon Wilcox]
"If you need me, I'll be lying here at the bottom of the ocean
If you need me, I'll be right here"

[Verse 2: Mark Hoppus + Matt Skiba]
Air, leave it up in the air
Because the people on the ground don't care
They don't notice but it's everywhere
Chase, now there's nothing to chase
Every day I feel so out of place
Let me wash away without a trace

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus, (Matt Skiba)]
I don't want to drink about it (Stare it down)
Driving out at 3 am (No way out)
Blood is cold, my mind is clouded (And then I woke up drunken)
How'd I make it here again? (Too much, too much to take)

[Chorus]
Days, I've been like this for days
Hiding underneath the darkest waves
I've been praying for the tide to change
Head, is this all in my head?
Running over every word I said
When they finally found my note, it read

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba and Simon Wilcox]
"If you need me, I'll be lying here at the bottom of the ocean
If you need me, I'll be right here"

[Bridge: Mark Hoppus, (Matt Skiba)]
I'm out here in the deep end, I'm lower than I've ever been
(I burn it down, It turns to smoke)
And when I see the morning, it's colder than it's ever been
(My bloodshot eyes see through the smoke)

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Days, I've been like this for days
Hiding underneath the darkest waves
I've been praying for the tide to change
Head, is this all in my head?
Running over every word I said
When they finally found my note, it read

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba and Simon Wilcox]
"If you need me, I'll be lying here at the bottom of the ocean
If you need me, I'll be right here"

​​blink-182

blink-182 set off the 1990s storm of pop-punk, blazing a trail in the genre with electrifying riffs and memorable lines—“Fuck a Dog,” anyone? The band has seen some lineup changes over the years, but its core trio (Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker) has mostly stood the test of time. As of 2015, DeLonge left the band to pursue other projects.

Founded in 1992 in Poway, California (a suburb in San Diego), DeLonge, Hoppus, and former drummer Scott Raynor formed the band in Raynor’s bedroom, writing songs for their demos, and playing practical jokes along the way. Initially, under the name Blink, the trio was forced to change the name to avoid a lawsuit with the Irish pop-rock group of the same name, so they added “182” at random (fans continue to speculate what “182” means to this day).

After releasing their demo album Buddha, blink-182 released Cheshire Cat in 1995 under Cargo Records. While not a major success at the time, the album generated buzz from the Southern California punk scene and major labels alike. After being signed to MCA Records, the band released Dude Ranch in 1997 with the hit singles “Dammit” and “Josie”.
