Cover art for The Adventure lyrics by Angels and Airwaves

Tom delonge has said that the song was inspired by a friend who whose marriage was kind of falling apart. It touched me so deeply that I was up one night crying for him -- I felt so hurt. The chorus goes, "Hey, yo/Here I am, and here we go/Life is waiting to begin." It just keeps building and building and building, and says, "I cannot live and I cannot breathe unless you do this with me."

Imagine you're still in love with someone and that person doesn't love you back, and there's nothing you can do about it. I don't wish that upon anybody.

@hugo_blink182 and then imagine you've been married for like ten years. it really adds another level to it. we need to stop acting as if a dying marriage is the same as any other relationship.
