[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
Leave me in the sun, I'm melting like a Popsicle
Give me the flu, I'm dying in this hospital
I need you close, but you got me backed against a wall
I try to speak, but my mouth doesn't move at all

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Sing me right back to sleep
We'll never hear your voice break down again
Need you to try to keep
Your distance and I'll come home again

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus, Matt Skiba]
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no
And when the lights come up and you see I'm gone
You wake up to an empty house
And when the music stops, and you come undone
You know I'm never gonna get you out of my head

[Verse 2: Matt Skiba, Matt Skiba and Mark Hoppus]
Met you in the dark, where we stumble in the mysteries
An opened book that you took and now I'm history
You moved away and you left me with your dying wish
I couldn't prove it was you, you're the arsonist

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Sing me right back to sleep
We'll never hear your voice break down again
Need you to try to keep
Your distance and I'll come home again

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus, Matt Skiba]
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no
And when the lights come up and you see I'm gone
You wake up to an empty house
And when the music stops, and you come undone
You know I'm never gonna get you out of my head

[Bridge: Mark Hoppus]
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus, Matt Skiba]
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no
And when the lights come up and you see I'm gone
You wake up to an empty house
And when the music stops, and you come undone
You know I'm never gonna get you out of my head

[Outro: Mark Hoppus]
Run away
Don't let me run away, no
Get away
Don't let me get away, no

​​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”.
