Blink-182
“Edging”
The first song with Tom DeLonge back in Blink-182 has arrived with a vibe that reminds you the pop-punk kings breakout years. The video for it has the band’s rabbit mascot getting into knife-throwing carnival mayhem with Delonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker. Now the tour for the reunited California trio is drawing huge ticket sales and a ton of anticipation for the live shows in 2023.
Lyrics from Genius.com:
I ain’t that cool, a little fucked in the head
They’ll be hangin’ me quick when I’m back from the dead
Get the rope, get the rope
Get the rope, get the rope
I’m a punk rock kid, I came from hell with a curse
She tried to pray it away, so I fucked her in church
Don’t you know? Don’t you know?
Don’t you know? Yeah, don’t you know?[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
They say “You’re not safe here if I
Stay with a knife that sharp”
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
No way, no, I leave them broken-hearted
Oh no, look at thе mess we started
Oh no, I lеad the broken hearts this way (This way)
Whatcha say? (Whatcha say?) Wanna play?
[Verse 2: Mark Hoppus]
Yea, don’t be fooled, I’m only letting you down
They pursued me on foot, but I hid in the crowd
Like a ghost, like a ghost
Like a ghost, like a ghost
The seats of my car are filled with cigarette burns
I got a fire in my eye, a little blood on my shirt
Let’s hit the road, hit the road
Hit the road, hit the road
[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
I know there’s a special place in hell
That my friends and I know well
There’s a perfect place to go
When it’s time to lose control
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
No, I leave them broken-hearted
Oh no, look at the mess we started
Oh no, I lead the broken hearts this way (This way)
Whatcha say? (Whatcha say?) Wanna play?
Nightmare, daydream (No, oh no, oh no, oh no)
You can’t save me (Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no)[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
No way, no, I leave them broken-hearted
Oh no, look at the mess we started
Oh no, I lead the broken hearts this way (Shit!)
Oh no, I leave them broken-hearted
Oh no, look at the mess we started
Oh no, I lead the broken hearts this way
Whatcha say? Everyday, it’s a waste, wanna play?
