Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Don't leave me all alone
Just drop me off at home
I'll be fine, it's not the first
Just like last time, but a little worse, and
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
One more chance, I'll try this time
I'll give you yours, I won't take mine
I'll listen up, pretend to care
Go on ahead, I'll meet you there, and
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
Let's try this one more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
Don't leave me all alone
Just drop me off at home
And I'll be fine
Just drop me off at home
I'll be fine, it's not the first
Just like last time, but a little worse, and
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
One more chance, I'll try this time
I'll give you yours, I won't take mine
I'll listen up, pretend to care
Go on ahead, I'll meet you there, and
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
Let's try this one more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling
She said that I'm not the one that she thinks about and
She said it stopped being fun, I just bring her down
I said, "Don't let your future be destroyed by my past"
She said, "Don't let my door hit your ass"
Don't leave me all alone
Just drop me off at home
And I'll be fine

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
this is one of those songs that blink writes that can take this huge feeling and wrap it up into a couple of line ("and all those words you dont say just mean less and less each day, you cant make me shed a tear"). this song really help me through a hard time and is to this day, one of my favorite songs.
Wow. Such a great Blink song. Just too much goes into this song for me, too much to write about. Great song and lyrics.
when it comes to writing songs that perfectly fit feelings...blink 182 is the best...i know a lot of people criticize blink for turnin to a more pop-punk sound...but they still write some of the best lyrics out there...i challenge some of these people to write better...this song is an example of blink writing at its best...i cant believe only 3 people have posted for this song...
this is an awsome song i have to say that i agree with you guys blink 182 is awsome when it comes to writing music i like how simple the structure is but then how deep and complex the meaning is
luv the intro bassline: bukkawukkawukka bukkawukkawukka haha
I haven't actually heard this song yet, but the lyrics are great. You can't beat a good blink lyric. Especially:
"And all those words that you don't say just mean less and less each day you can't make me shed a tear"
"And you can take off your disguise Cause I can see the truth that's hidden Behind your eyes "
The person is hiding something and the other person (their gf/bf) can see it but still doesn't know what it is.
"And all those words that you don't say just mean less and less each day you can't make me shed a tear ..."
The words you don't say = the thing the person is hiding that will eventually make them grow apart or separate (they mean less and less each day)
great song, one of my favs on buddha
one of my favorites on buddha as well, i haven't listened to it in a while though pops the cd in
