Lyrics:
It’s already June.
The light paints you pink
when it breaks through the cherry trees.
You shout at the moon.
We lay on your swing.
I’m right where I’m meant to be.
The gray moves aside
for the first time in my life,
so I think that I
got the dosage right.
Devil in your blood,
the dull, unmoored ache,
the same one that haunted me.
But the bearings could rust,
and the circuit could break,
if I love you entirely.
I’m finding hope in the pocket of my winter coat
with your gloves-a reminder that I’m not alone.
I’m scared to my bones
that I won’t find a way
to keep you and your brother safe.
A fire eats the coast
as the sea levels raise.
It’s like we’re circling the drain.
The news keeps getting worse-
the floods or the drought?
There’s a mass shooting weekly now.
And it feels like you’re cursed,
like we’re letting you down.
So, I’m gonna dig you out.
I’m finding hope in the pocket of my winter coat
with your gloves-a reminder that I’m not alone.
You’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.
I don’t wanna die, ‘cause I gotta protect you.
You’re the reason I can’t leave here yet-
the reason I don’t want the world to end.
I don’t wanna die.
I wanna light you through your darker months.
I wanna swallow the sun
before it can swallow us.
I’m calling home. Hear you laughing in the afterglow
and the reasons to abandon all my former ghosts.
‘Cause you’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.

The older I get the more I’ve come to realize that truly hopeful things often have an ache of sadness weaved in it. Hope isn’t simply that you only see the good, hope is when you know and acknowledge things are hard but you will keep trying. This song brought me to tears tonight. I’ve heard it before but tonight just hit me different. 🖤
beautiful. the very concept hope requires there to be an underlying badness. there would be nothing to hope for if that weren't the case.
This one hurt, but it’s probably the best song they’ve ever written.
"...to keep you and your brother safe" this is the exact moment I cried listening to this masterpiece for the first time.
these guys are truly amazing.
“I don’t wanna die cuz I gotta protect you” hit me harder than any lyric in two years.
I wonder what lyrics hit you as hard 2 years ago...
@@MelodicEgghead Spanish Love Songs’ “Brave Faces Everyone”. The very end of the song goes “We don’t have to fix everything at once. We were never broken, life’s just very long. Brave faces, everyone.” A very appropriate lyric that helped me get through quarantine.
@@varth_3048 Wow, that's pretty amazing! I will have to check out that song!!! Thank you friend!
One of the first times I heard this song, my poor sick little cat climbed up into my lap at "I'm scared to my bones that I won't find a way to keep you and your brother safe." And I just held him like a lifeline for the rest of the song. And I cried harder than I ever have, squeezing all of the love I could into him at "I don't wanna die cuz I gotta protect you."
If there's never another Wonder Years album after this I'd be completely content with this being the final song you put out.
It really feels like Dan finally found what he had been looking for since the very beginning.
i think it's his family
Exactly. This album concludes the themes from previous albums, and I feel it would be the perfect ending point for the band. As Soupy has grown up and has a family, it seems like he’s finally happy.
for some reason I can picture _"I’m calling home. Hear you laughing in the afterglow"_ very vividly
I was out in the cold last night when the album came out, and I got to be one of the first people among us to hear this masterpiece. I'll be listening to these 12 songs for the rest of my life with the other 5 albums and the acoustic couple. Nothing makes me feel like it's going to be okay like someone else's tough life looking up every day
They have 6 other albums. But I understand people sleeping on Get Stoked On It because it was really rough.
@@heatherpilarsky7418 I was under 10 when those came out also. I wouldn't have even understood them
I have listened to it plenty though, it has good songs too obviously like Mike Kennedy and buzz aldrin
Thank you for writing these words. I love my kids so damn much, and they’re the reason I’m alive. They gave me purpose and get me through the days. Thank you so much for this beautiful album and all the work you put into it.
That fucking bridge gets me every time.
Imagine how many lives this band has saved...
All around amazing album, but this is one of the greatest songs you guys have ever put out. Seriously gave me chills.
2:44 this moment single handedly gave me chills I will be remembering for my whole life, the exact moment I knew for a fact that this amazing album will be a part of me my whole life.
Ten years later and once again they drop another album thats gonna define the pop punk scene for this decade!
The views on this song is just criminal. Too incredible of a song to be this small.
Never had an album give me chills like this one did. A masterpiece
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat ❤️🔥 those fucking lyrics can only be made from the wonder years. Love you guys
Yup. This is the song that had me blubbering at my wife about how I want to be a better person and, in my mind, the song's about her. Thank you, TWY as always for another absolute masterpiece of an album. 10/10 doesn't do this justice.
This song is the 'I Just want to Sell out my Funeral' of this album. And thats so fricking cool. I dont know of any other artist that does this with their albums. Literally like a story being told and the pay off is this emotional song with its throwbacks. It's like this song is Avengers End Game and the Album was the MCU
I first heard this mere days before I was told by my wife that she was pregnant with our first child. The way that I already felt about this song was amplified a thousand times in that moment.
I swear I will be the best father that I can, and I will do everything in my power to stop my flaws from affecting my children negatively.
I don’t think I’ve cried this much while listening to a song in a long time. I’m not a parent and I never will be, but I have nephew and I love him so much and I want to be here to watch him grow up. To quote another TWY song “It’s about not letting the sadness win” and whenever my depression starts creeping up on me again, I just remind myself that there’s a little boy that doesn’t care about any of that, all he cares about is that his uncle makes him laugh.
Such a beautiful anthem to those trying to find the strength to love the ones who need them.
This album started something in me when it came out and today I finally realised why.
Soupy, rest of the band - I owe you guys my life.
Hi! There's a stanza missing before the last one.
"I’m finding hope in the pocket of my winter coat
with your gloves-a reminder that I’m not alone.
You’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat.
I’m calling home. Hear you laughing in the afterglow
and the reasons to abandon all my former ghosts.
‘Cause you’re brave, so I’m brave, or I’m trying anyway.
Put the work in, plant a garden, try to stay afloat."
thank you for this song. we all needed it.
Ffs guys I don't often tear up to music but this song gets me every damn time.
This can’t be the same band that wrote keystone state dude core
We were up at midnight for the drop and spent the next 45 minutes crying and loving every minute of this album.
Literally Sobbing this whole album hits so hard.
Undoubtedly the best wonder years album start to finish in my opinion, fucking bone chilling
I wonder if the "try to stay afloat" line could be somehow related to "the ocean grew hands to hold me", the closer of Sister Cities.
Those drums that kick in during the bridge are enough to make you weep
this is what it sounds like when the entire band puts their heart and soul into an audio file
Managed to get to my first TWY show ever and I bawled my eyes out to this at the barricade. This band means everything to me and I cherish their existence.
Best Wonder Years song. Wow.
What a tearjerker. Incredible track and album.
O nível de beleza e profundidade dessa música ( do disco em si ) é tão cru, real, vivo em cada linha que traduz perfeitamente o momento que estou na minha vida. Esse disco aborda da forma mais madura possível a paternidade, sem tratar como se tudo fosse apenas flores. É assustador em vários aspectos e para pessoas que como eu, lutam contra depressão, é um desafio gigante e ao mesmo tempo é uma razão pra se manter vivo. Essa banda nunca vai saber o quanto significa pra mim. É muito importante. Eu realmente amo essa banda, já tenho uma tattoo e pretendo fazer outras. Melhor banda da história 💙🇧🇷
Im in a very tough position in my life but then i listened to this song. Hit me right on my guts. thank you.
Hope shit gets better for you, brother
I've loved thid band since I first heard Suburbia when I was a teenager, I'm now a dad with two boys and this song just made me cry like I never have before, god dammit man soupy this songs beautiful 😢
What a truly incredible album, all of these songs are super relatable and make you feel something. And the emotions...half of these songs giving me chills, thank you guys for another killer set of songs from the heart
Holy shite... Yep this is my favorite song on the album.
Absolutely incredible
no doubt the most beautiful song TWY ever written. CONGRATS. お疲れさまでした
Yesss I love this so so much!!!!
I want this song played at my funeral.
you just might sell out your funeral if you do
Thanks guys, saw yall last week up in Seattle with no knowledge of any of your stuff, yall really Came Out Swinging - come back and Ill bring my boiler suit!
This song hurts me in a way I don't think any other song ever has before. Almost scary how accurately it describes the way I feel
This song broke me
0 ties with Philly, still one of my favorite songs on the album.I I didn't know I needed this album so much. What a masterpiece!
Congratulations on making a pregnant person cry while listening to this song ❤
ever single person that says rock can’t be artistic or emotional has never listened to the wonder years and it’s a crying shame
I’m not crying, you’re crying…damnit Soupy..
The song I sing to my daughter is "the big sleep, by Yoh Kay" of streetlight manifesto, since before she was born. I have a son on the way, this is his.
Holy shit this is so good
Having kids and hearing this rips your soul out lmao
Fucking immaculate. Amazing. Beautifully articulated masterpiece, every song. So stoked to see y'all in Boise the ninth.❤️🥺
im losing track of who the good guys are supposed to be
Solo siempre
Awesome song! I feel the same about my 12 year old son! I wish Bernie Sanders was president now. Maybe he could have done a better job as president to fix all these horrible things happening in our country!
You turned a beautiful moment into politics. Unglue and live.
@@ispeaktruth9090 Soupy is a major Bernie supporter, though.
@@ispeaktruth9090 You can see Dan's political beliefs in the lyrics to this song.
It’s going to take more than one guy. It’s going to take all the guys. All of us.
If im ever so lucky... I want this to be my wedding song. And if I ever come back to this comment years down the road... I want you to know I love you and you saved me.
Crazy a Reddit story introduced me to them
The video game Forza Horizon 4 introduced me to them, and I am so happy it did🤘🏾
