Green Day Lyrics That Apply to Your Life

Recommended Posts

Everyone knows song lyrics that sound like they could be directly said by ourselves. What are some Green Day lyrics/songs that are basically right from your life? This can even be applied to specific events.

For example, the lyrics of "In the End" are exactly what I felt towards an ex-gf. "Emenius Sleepus" perfectly describes an awkward encounter I had with a former friend.

An important part of this thread is to follow up the lyric with the personal life experience :)

If anyone can hear me slap some sense in me
But you turn your head and I end up talking to myself
Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated
So I loose my head or I bang it up against the wall

I always feel like 80 can perfectly describe my life sometimes.

I will console you when you feel that way, Zack :wub:

I felt like you'd respond but I wasn't expecting the speed with which you did, so, well done! :P

Today is the first day of the rest of our lives

Tomorrow is too late to pretend everything's alright

Those have always been some of my fav Green Day lyrics. They are just awesome.

Everything from Longview when I'm bored and avoiding doing schoolwork at the same time.

And also

"I'm not growing up

I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line
to walk amongst the dead"

perfectly describes my life.

"I sit alone in my bedroom staring at the walls. I've been up all damn night long my pulse is speeding, my love is yearning. I hold my breath and close my eyes and dream about her."

Yeah, describes my life perfectly.

Sad lyric lol. What happened in your life that you relate that lyric to?

It's not that sad. There's a girl I want.

Go after her, man. If you don't you'll regret it!

"Nobody's perfect and I stand accused, for lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse" basically sums up my angst teenage phase. The entirety of Whatsername describes what happened between me and my former best friend, only I remember the name and have a hard time fixing her face in my memory rather than vice versa.

"I had a dream that I kissed your lips and it felt so true, then I woke up as a nervous wreck and I fell for you..."

This kind of happened to me. I had this weird dream with a girl I've never seen before and when I woke up I couldn't even tell if it was real or not. Is that even possible? Falling for someone you don't know?

Emenius Sleepus got me through the period when one of my closest friends decided he'd rather try and get together with a girl (whose friends were mostly pricks) than remain true to everything that makes him my friend (they had a vague relationship for a few months and nothing happened. Way to make yourself look desperate and shallow). Oh, and the fact that he's become so easily led it's painful.
