Simple Plan has a new song! Well the song is really from the band Busted, but Simple Plan joined them to make Loser Kid 2.0. I've never heard the original, but this song is pretty good!
'Cause I used to be the loser kid
Who always ran away and hid
And no one took the time to know me
The βKick Meβ sign was always on me
Now everybody wants to know
What I do and where I go
At least I know they won't forget mΠ΅
'Cause I live with Miss MackenziΠ΅ βͺ β« βͺ
A million pictures of you could never be enough
Now you're touching my hand and I'm biting my tongue
'Cause I know you're the one
I swear, we'll be more than a memory
A million pictures of you 'til the morning light
If we don't leave this room, I'll be perfectly fine for the rest of my life
I swear, we'll be more than a memory
More than a memory βͺ β« βͺ
I was broken, I was choking
I was lost, this song saved my life
I was bleeding, stopped believing
Could have died, this song saved my life
I was down, I was drowning
But it came on just in time
This song saved my life βͺ β« βͺ
And if you haven't seen it, Simple Plan and MTV created a very touching music video that highlighted the problem of human trafficking. This came out way back in 2009.
Starting off the week with my favorite song from Simple Plan's new album. The lyrics in this song are so good β they are a great reminder of the blessings we already have in life.
How many good things in my life have I missed out on
But not appreciated what I've got
Sometimes it's hard to see your lucky break for what it is
By only focusing on what it's not
But, now I'm starting to see
That my happiness has always been up to me
And now I'm starting to see
That I've already got what I need
Today, I'll live like my blessings are full
There's light at the end of the tunnel
There's always a blessing in disguise or by your side
And I, I'm on the top of the world
I'm holding my chin up high
'Cause I'm livin' every day
Like it's the best f*ckin' day of my life
It's time to stop with all the judging by comparison
There's always someone who's got so much more
So, what's the point of trying keep up with it anyway?
Just live your life instead of keeping score
...
Today, I'll live like my blessings are full
There's light at the end of the tunnel
There's always a blessing in disguise or by your side
And I, I'm on the top of the world
I'm holding my chin up high
'Cause I'm livin' every day
Like it's the best f*ckin' day of my life βͺ β« βͺ
It's good to be back from my self-imposed break. To kick off my return, here's an awesome new track from Simple Plan. I love how they're writing tracks as if it was still the early 2000s.
Sidenote: This song would be great in a Twenty Five Twenty One music video. Somebody please make one!
Every time I feel alone
Like the walls are caving in
Like I never win
Like it's crawling under my skin
You're the antidote
Even when it hurts the most
And I'm trying to find a way
But there's no escape
Like a poison filling my veins
You're the antidote
'Cause the world keeps turning
(So why do you tell me you care if you're not gonna stay?)
And my heart's still burning (Why do you tell me you care?)
What if I change the world
If I lead the way?
What if I be the one who takes the blame?
What if I can't go on without you?
What if I graduate?
What if I don't?
What if I don't? βͺ β« βͺ
When I first heard this, I was still a kid. Now I'm a dad. I hope that I don't end up like the dad that is depicted in this song. Still a great song from Simple Plan though.
I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's alright
'Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and
We can't go back
I'm sorry
I can't be perfect
This one goes out to all those in long-distance relationships. I've been through it with my wife and I know it can be really hard. But if you just hang on, you'll get through it. And the happiness you'll feel once you've reunited with the person you love, can't be described with words.
And I can't lie
But every time I leave my heart turns gray
And I wanna come back home to see your face tonight
Cause I just can't take it
Another day without you with me
Is like a blade that cuts right through me
But I can wait
I can wait forever
When you call, my heart stops beating
When you're gone, it won't stop bleeding
But I can wait
I can wait
I can wait
I can wait
I can wait forever βͺ β« βͺ
I found a reason
And suddenly I'm not so alone
I'm finally breathing
Like I never could on my own
Start the countdown, let's get it on
Scream our lungs out to our favorite song
'Cause this is where I belong βͺ β« βͺ
