| This is by far my favourite song on the album. It has more emotion in it than any other song on the album and is basically perfect. The only thing I don't like is the way he apparently introduces it live. | |

| DeLonge: This is the last song on the album. I always take my daughter to this ice-cream place. Next door is a toy shop and they had a pink toy piano in there. It sounded so good, so I bought it. The very next day I put it in my shower and played that part. I pictured being on a boat and as you're leaving a city in flames, you see a tropical island, like you're going to a beautiful place. I make references to my past in this song - 'I left the chill and voice of screams and kids and ran for shelter'. In leaving the desolation and negativity behind, you find something beautiful." | |

| i just came back from the ava concert and right before the song he was talking about blink and was like telling how he didnt want to explain why they broke up so heres a song about it. So this song is about the breakup of blink | |

| Everybody says this song is about blink-182, and I agree partly. I see the stars, they're in your eyes A playful kiss, can you tell I'm excited? A fast escape in the nick of time You lost your wish, can I help you find it? I'm on my knee, to sworn to start A fresh new start, to be undecided this part makes it sound like Tom quit blink-182 because either his wife wanted him to or he wanted to be more of a family man. | |

| my take is that at the end even though everything is bad he finds a way to ask someone to marry him | |

| This is easily my favorite song from the album. Now, I have no experience with interpreting lyrics or whatnot. Just so you all know. One thing that kinda stuck out though were the lyrics: "I see the stars, they're in your eyes. A playful kiss, can you tell I'm excited? A fast escape in the nick of time. If you've lost your wish, can I help you to find it? I'm on my knee, just one to start, a fresh new start, don't be undecided. If love is a word that you say, then say it, I will listen." It makes me think of someone proposing, what with the being on one knee, not being undecided, and "a fresh new start." | |

| From Kerrang!: The song starts with the toy piano playing a tune then a slow pounding drum beat and a heavy bass guitar line with distortion kicks in. DeLonge: "This is the last song on the album. I always take my daughter to this ice-cream place. Next door is a toy shop and they had a pink toy piano in there. It sounded so good, so I bought it. The very next day I put it in my shower and played that part. I pictured being on a boat and as you're leaving a city in flames, you see a tropical island, like you're going to a beautiful place. I make references to my past in this song - 'I left the chill and voice of screams and kids and ran for shelter'. In leaving the desolation and negativity behind, you find something beautiful." as said by Tom people. I personally love this song, and couldn't for shit tell you what the song's about. Although i do love the chorus.. you know... i won't say SOrray... | |
