I wish Nick's tapping was louder and could be heard, it's so cool to see him actually playing the tapped lead acoustically.

Chobes 182 completely agree. One of my favorite parts of any TWY songs

[@gxbrielguerra]

came here to see if there was tapping and i was not let down

[@NMBurke-qm5ej]

This is a fucking stunning rendition of my favourite TWY song

[@morgangray5224]

I’ve always loved The Wonder Years and this song has always been close to my heart. This rendition just always hit different

Man, i'll turn 35 next month and i'm fuckin lost in life. The wonder years are such a special band to me since they are "old pop punks" just like me. I hope they keep this going forever. I'm sitting here crying cause that song is hitting so damn hard. Just beautiful. Music and Punk saved my life more than once. I hope i'll have kids someday to show them all these great bands from modern pop punk era

You had me runnin' in circles, you were a shot in the dark; You were the baby teeth I buried, you're the sound of distant cars🚗. 🎵🎸🎙

full lyrics
Tossed around like sea glass, and you rounded out my edges
I'll feel better when the headaches go away
I've got a scar across my forehead, turning purple in the cold
From a night at Shore Memorial, I was sixteen and afraid
Turned away
And I'm working babyface
Out of Mid-South in the eighties
I kept a blade hidden in my wrist tape
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run till my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
I think enough is enough
Hidden in the tall grass, in the naked light of day
Put my past self in the ground, I've been dancing on the grave
I'm not the person that I was then, you're standing in the way
I was bitter, I was careless, I was nineteen and afraid
But you deserve more from me
I don't know why I would say those things
But you deserve more than me and I'm trying every day
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run till my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
I think enough is enough
Let me walk in circles
You were a shot in the dark
You were the baby teeth I buried
You were the sounds of distant cars
Let me walk in circles
You were a shot in the dark
You were the banner that says "no one"
That I tattooed across my heart
Let me walk in circles
You were a shot in the dark
You scattered like ashes across every song that I write
You are the light pollution stars
I think I'm growing into someone you could trust
I want to shoulder the weight until my back breaks
I want to run till my lungs give up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
If I could manage not to fuck this up
Enough is enough
