    The "give all my things to all my friends" line always hits me so hard. I had a friend pass when I was 14 (Not a suicide, but still extremely hard.) His mom let a few of us into his room to pick a "memory" and I came a across a toy that had originally belonged to me; an old Transformer that I had made a trade with him for something else. It meant so much to me that she did that when she didn't have to, but she understood the loss that we had suffered as well.

    I had a very close friend of mine that I grew up with, and we were best buds. One of our favorite bands to sing and listen to together was Blink 182. We met in kindergarten, and from then on, we found so many memories together. At times, we were on the playground being children, and at others, we were in college becoming men. But during high school, he had a close scare with suicide. I remember singing this song with him at the same period of time when he felt that way, and hearing in this version made me realize the depth and strength of the words. My friend was hurting so bad, and this song connected far deeper than I knew. Thank you for this version.

    At age 17 I was in a small band. After a few months of playing we learned our singer tragically died in a construction accident. A door to a stairwell was hung without the stairs behind them. He fell and broke his neck we never got to talk again. This song hits hard. We played many blink songs. I miss those years growing up in my room and even though times where hard life got better. Wesley will always be my friend and I truly believe we will get to talk again.

    I never thought I'd die alone
    I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
    I trace the cord back to the wall
    No wonder it was never plugged in at all
    I took my time, I hurried up
    The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
    I'm too depressed to go on
    You'll be sorry when I'm gone
    I never conquered, rarely came
    Sixteen just held such better days
    Days when I still felt alive
    We couldn't wait to get outside
    The world was wide, too late to try
    The tour was over, we'd survived
    I couldn't wait 'til I got home
    To pass the time in my room alone
    I never thought I'd die alone
    Another six months I'll be unknown
    Give all my things to all my friends
    You'll never step foot in my room again
    You'll close it off, board it up
    Remember the time that I spilled the cup
    Of apple juice in the hall
    Please tell mom this is not her fault
    I never conquered, rarely came
    Sixteen just held such better days
    Days when I still felt alive
    We couldn't wait to get outside
    The world was wide, too late to try
    The tour was over, we'd survived
    I couldn't wait till I got home
    To pass the time in my room alone
    I never conquered, rarely came
    Tomorrow holds such better days
    Days when I can still feel alive
    When I can't wait to get outside
    The world is wide, the time goes by
    The tour is over, I've survived
    I can't wait 'til I get home
    To pass the time in my room alone
