I think that breaking into the mainstream - it was just the right cycle of music for us in Blink-182. People were kind of over the boy-band, pop-princess, manufactured sensibility, and were excited for guitars and angst and energy and enthusiasm, which is our thing.

The past is only the future with the lights on

Thats not a place where I'm considered good-looking.

I feel like anyone can be a kid forever as long as you have that mindset and attitude towards the world.

If something is wrong with you, hate someone else for it

We just kind of did our own thing and got made fun of by the popular kids. It was kind of like a badge of honor to be an outcast.

No matter what, I think people are trying to better themselves, or to better their situation, or to find something new and exciting.
