i really don't think it is..
it's a song about a teenage boy who committed suicide. he'd written a suicide note for his parents, but also sent it to blink, 'cause he was a huge fan. blink were so moved by this that they wrote a song for him, and about his situation.

perhaps the "i can't wait til i get home" part means that he can't wait to be free from the pain and trouble of this life. "home" could mean heaven.

Let me summarize this for y'all real quick. It's a combo of many people, no specific focus (although several references) on one individual. Blink182 decided to write it after: A> Mark was feeling depressed; B> Receiving a fan's suicide letter.

Paragraphs 1&3 appear to be about someone who actually is writing a suicide note. But the chorus is more uplifting, and the reason why blink says its an anti-suicide song. It states both 16 and tomorrow. This shows to focus on the good points in life.

this song means that you can be depressed and stuff but there is always a light at the end of the tunnel
Nicely put and it true all the same. :D

The lyrics never say anything about, "a light at the end of the tunnel" just strictly depression.

@camel0 the last verse sort of mentions a light at the end of the tunnel.

"i cant wait till i get home"? yeah that's a definite 'looking forward to the future' moment

this song is about growing up, and the difficulties therein, which a lot of blink's songs are about
