Passed out on the overpass
Sunday best and broken glass
Broken down from the bikes
And bars Suspended like spirits

Over speeding cars
You and me were kings over the
Parkway tonight
And tonight will go on forever

While we walk around this town
Like we own the streets
And stay awake through summer
Like we own the heat

Singing "everybody wake up(wake
Up)it's time to get down"
(everybody, everybody wake up
It's time to get down)

And when I pass the bottle back
To Pete on the overpass tonight,
I bet we laugh

I'm gonna stay eighteen forever
(cut me open)
So we can stay like this forever
(sun poisoned)

And we'll never miss a party
(this offer stands forever)
'Cause we keep them going constantly
And we'll never have to listen

(new haircut)
To anyone about anything
(new bracelet)
'Cause it's all been done and

It's all been said
(eyeliner)
We're the coolest kids and we
Take what we can get

(wait forever)

The hell out of this town
Find some conversation
The low fule lights been on for days
It doesn't mean anyhting

I've got another 500 nother 500 miles
Before we shut this engine down,
We shut it down

I'm gonna stay eighteen forever
(cut me open)
So we can stay like this forever
(sun poisoned)

And we'll never miss a party
(this offer stands forever)
'Cause we keep them going constantly
And we'll never have to listen

(new haircut)
To anyone about anything
(new bracelet)
'Cause it's all been done

And it's all been said
(eyeliner)
We're the coolest kids and
We take what we can get
(wait forever)

(you're just jealous cause
I'm young and in love)
Eighteen forever
(your stomachs filled up but

You're starved for conversation)
So we can stay like this forever
(you're spending all your nights
Growing old in your bed)

And we'll never miss a party
(and your tearin up your photos
'Cause you want to forget... it's over)
'Cause we keep them going constantly

(you're just jealous cause
I'm young and in love)
And we'll never have to listen
(your stomachs filled up but

You're starved for conversation)
To anyone about anything cause
It's all been done
(you're spending all your nights

Growing old in your bed)
And it's all been said
(and your tearin' up your photos
'Cause you want to forget... it's over)

We're the coolest kids and we take
What we can get

Just jealous cause we're
Young and in love
You're just jealous cause

We're young and in love [Repeat: x5]

    Song Meaning:i live in the town Brand New is from, so this song really relates to me. Jesse's sister was my english teacher lol. but i go to the overpass they talk about and listen to this song and think about all the times in my life that made me really happy and really sad. it just reminds me of home and how bittersweet it is here.

    Memory:Let's be honest, the lyrics aren't really deep...but they really touch me. Last summer was the last three months I'll ever see 99% of the kids from high school, and it was the best 90 days of my life. The parties were cooler than any of the one's I've experienced in college, and I did tons of stupid shit that I have no regrets for. Not to mention that I was literally getting drunk on the overpasses of the same place Jesse Lacey grew up. This is making me sad.

    Song Comparison:Does the begining have any link to "...slowdance on the inside" by TBS? "Passed out in out schoolclothes so we'd wake up in our sunday best" is dangerously similar to "Passed out on the overpass, sunday best, broken glass."
    Just wondering :)

    General Comment:This song symbolizes youth and having the greatest times of your life. This July 4, I was driving to a friends party and blasting this songs out of my car windows. I looked in the rear view mirror to see fireworks going off behind me and I automatically got chills going up and down my arms. I've never felt so amazed by a song in my entire life. This is the best "feel good" song out there.

    General Comment:Brand New is amazing. Like lyrically they're awesome...and live...there is just this energy...it's not like STOKED..but you can tell he cares for the music and the fans that bring him on stage. Definitely favorite band ever.

    General Comment:Have you guys seen live or on youtube how he plays this song lately? At the end, he switches up the lyrics to "I'm just jealous that youre young and in love." Unbelievably awesome, shows how much hes aged since then

    General Comment:This song obviously means something different to every individual, but this is what it means to me...

    I am 16 years old, and my brother who is 18, graduated today. He's taught me so much. More than he knows. He'll never know how much I look up to him. Today, I realized he's growing up...going off to college this fall, and I'm stuck behind. He and his best friends and I would hang out nearly every weekend. Just hanging out at the house, eating food, playing games, and just talking about real things. He's bailed me out so many times. He's given me so much love. This song reminds me of all the times my brother, his 2 best friends, and I would just hang out. I love them all so much. They've all graduated today, and I'm stuck back at home. Luckily, he's not going too far away. But I cherish the times those 3 and I have shared. I didn't realize how much those times meant to me, till today.

    General Comment:I think that the song might be about teenagers that died in a car crash from drunk driving.
    "sundays best and broken glass" he might be talking about a broken winshield or something
    "suspended like spirits over speeding cars" like ghosts or somthing, implying that theyre dead
    "stay 18 forever" maybe also implying that they're dead. because if you die, people remember you as the age you were when you died.
    the meaning could be found in other parts of the song, but i dont know.
    what do you think?
