Non pensavo che un'altra band al di fuori degli Yellowcard sarebbe stata in grado di regalarmi canzoni che in estate fanno più male che durante il resto dell'anno. 

Tre giorni fa gli A Day To Remember hanno fatto uscire il terzo singolo e come ho letto il testo, mentre ascoltavo avidamente la traccia, ho pensato immediatamente a te. 
E quale migliore dedica di compleanno di questa potevo regalarti? 

What a waste, I see you now and then,
but mostly we pretend we're not more strangers than we're friends.
Then we say, what we need to say,
to try and get away from the tension we create.

Why can't we say the things, the things we wish we would.
Why can't we laugh the way, the way we know we should.
Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace.


Everybody sees your head’s hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood.

Somethin changed the way we interact,
now we can't get it back.
Another relic of the past.
Makes ya think, did I ever know you at all?
Follow until I fall
Vultures circling in the sun.


Why can't we say the things, the things we wish we would.
Why can't we laugh the way, the way we know we should.
Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace

Everybody sees your head’s hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood

You can't just avoid the issue,
Ya shoulda learned from the things we've been through.
You don't know what you have until it’s lost,
till the hammer drops.

Brace, fall.


Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace

Everybody sees your head’s hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood

Fossimo indietro di dieci anni, direi che questa canzone è profetica. 
Ma siamo dieci anni dopo quello che è successo e questa canzone assomiglia più ad una cronaca - ad una pagina di diario, ad un ritratto distorto di quello che eravamo e ad uno più accurato di quello che io sono diventata. 

Buon fottuto compleanno.
