Released: November 7, 2000

Songwriter: Mark Hoppus Tom DeLonge

Producer: Jerry Finn

[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
It's understood, I said it in many ways
Too scared to run, I'm too scared to stay
I said I'd leave, but I could never leave her
And if I did, you know I'd never cheat her
But this I ask, it's what I want to know
How would you feel if I should choose to go?
Another guy, you think he'd be unlike me
Another guy, you think he'd wanna fight me

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
She's a dove, she's a fuckin' nightmare
Unpredictable, was my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train

[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
I heard it once, I'm sure I heard it twice
My dad used to give me all of his advice
He would say, "you gotta turn your back and run now
Come on son, you haven't got a chance now"

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
She's a dove, she's a fuckin' nightmare
Unpredictable, was my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
She's a dove, she's a fuckin' nightmare
Unpredictable, was my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train

[Outro: Tom DeLonge]
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run now
You haven't got a chance now
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run now
You haven't got a chance now

[Spoken Outro]
Tom: Wow! Hey, I'm fucking in the mood... to party!
Mark: Hey alright!
Tom: Well fucking alright! Hey, you know what we're gonna to do tonight? A whole lotta' fuckin'!
Mark: We're all gonna get laid! This song's about my herpes, it's called "Don't Leave Me", it goes like this!

​​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”.
