| Social Distortion – Story of My Life Lyrics
| 15 years ago
|
This is a 100% autobiographical song written by Mike Ness about living in orange county being a teen, having no interest in school(just music)teenage concerts, admitting life goes by too fast, attempting to get a job, missing the places he enjoyed as a kid and wondering where his crush is and what she is doing.... A COMPLETE song about looking back on life.
I completely relate to this song because i live in orange county, have no interest in school, have bad grades, love going to shows (and all the fun things associated with it)failing at getting a job and wondering what the girl i like is doing right now. Social D for life!

I dont agree with the other comments..... My interpretation is that Mike Ness is admitting he took the beaten path and taking a road he wanted to without following what mainstream ideas were thinking, he wants music to be like it was in the good old days |
