Lyric discussion by MartyTDB 

Cover art for Please Take Me Home lyrics by Blink-182

Personally I think the lyrics to this song are horrible. I like Blink's music for the most part but I think they are some of the worst lyricists. None of their songs (of which this is the worst lyrically) have any depth. The worst part is the 'Why did we have to go date / Its so easy to complicate'. Aah thats so bad.

I agree that they're not the best lyricist, but some of their songs aren't thaaat bad. It gets better with their last album; Feeling This has some really pretty lines and so does I Miss You.

I think that from a strictly educated writer's standpoint, their lyrics are pretty bad. However, a major part of writing when it comes to poetry/music/literature is to immerse the reader/listener in the world that you've created. It's not about skill with words.

Sometimes, the simplest string of words will incite a massive impact upon the mind. Small words, broken fragments, jumping topics - it's actually a great way to get a lot of topic into one small statement. The imagination fills in the rest, as well as the feelings needed to properly feel the lyrics.

In one...

Oh, yeah. Also, punk rock is all about the music, as opposed to skill. It's about picking up an instrument and jamming, whether you know how to or not. Fun, nostalgia, emotions, and doing whatever you want. T'is punk. T'is Blink.
