Blink 182 - Stay Together For The Kids Song MeaningsLyrics:It's hard to wake up When the shades have been pulled shut This house is haunted It's so pathetic It makes no sense at all. I'm ri... (See the rest of these lyrics) Submitted by: cherryxbliss Added: 2005-10-31 16:45:26 Rating:   Yes, this seems obvious. It's about a destructive home, where they parents can't stop arguing, and the kids just sit by and watch. Looking back, a grown-up kid (Mark Hoppus) realizes that it wasn't all his fault, as he thought as a child.
Submitted by: Avid255 Divorce sucks! My parents arent divorced but they've been fighting since I was born, this song eases the pain and just gets me more motivated. Thanks, blink.
Submitted by: anonymous Tom wrote this song in his driveway when he was 16. His parents had just told them they were getting a divorce, and he went outside and sat in his car and wrote the lyrics to this song.
Submitted by: davidforbes Well the third guys the only one who knows what he's saying its not mark its tom delonge's parents divorce. He says it on urethra chronicles
Submitted by: anonymous As the last guy said, Tom says in the Chronicles 2 video that it's about a day when he was sitting in his driveway and his family basically just fell apart.
Submitted by: Deckard88 It's just pellucid that it's about a family matter going wrong. No complain..it happens to every family, except for the outcome. I've been living through hell since I was a kid, no wonder I'm such a crook now. Thanks a lot Blink for making me feel like I'm not alone in this case.
Submitted by: anonymous Okay this isn't a lyric interpretation, but how can blink 182 have a song called "stay together for the kids" but they don't stay together for US kids? I was devastated when they broke up. Their music is really good.
Submitted by: fenderchik421 Yeah, I really think Blink-182 should've stayed together for the kids..I cried a little when I saw the "Not Now" video....They're were and still are my favorite band...They'll get together again though.....Hopefully.
Submitted by: anonymous Yeah, I've only heard one song from Angels and Airwaves but I don't think it's very good. It's like Tom is trying too hard to make his voice NOT sound like it did in blink 182. His voice is too deep. And Angels and Airwaves just don't seem FUN. What about songs like 'What's my age again?'?
Submitted by: anonymous I believe that this song is about a kid whos parents always fight and yell at each other. The kid just sits and listens to it thinking its his fault.
Submitted by: anonymous Yeah, Tom does say it in urethra chronicles and yeah, you're right, A&A suck I don't like them. I listened to a song, got halfway and just thought it wasn't right. Tom isn't right, it isn't him A&A, Plus 44 and any other band they're going to make isn't gonna be right. They'll look back in 20 years and say "it's not right."
Submitted by: anonymous This song is pretty easy to grasp the concept of:
Submitted by: PaulJohnGeorgeRingo4 Great song!! Might be my favorite on the CD too!...The title mainly tells you what the song is about...the home...the divorce...not good...I went through my parents divorce and it probably was the worse thing that ever happened in my life. everyone has the idea what this song is about...tom is my favorite in the band...i think his writing of lyrics is way more better than mark's I must say (tom has deeper meaning in his songs)
Submitted by: anonymous This song is about the destruction of a home and a divorce ( divorce sucks )
Submitted by: anonymous I agree that blink should have stayed together for the kids. But I totally love +44,the transplants,and angels and airwaves.
Submitted by: anonymous Blink shuld hav never broken up. Theyre music was he best.
Submitted by: anonymous Your all thick if you actually listen to what mark and tom say you will understand! Tom has even said himself it was when his mom and dad split, and he realized that his life was changing in major way, and couldn't see how they waste all the time they were married
Submitted by: Angelmisty It's about when Tom Delonge was 16 his parents said they were getting divorced after he just sat in his car cause his life was falling apart. It says in Ureatha Chronicles 2 and in a Kerrang! interview. There's 2 videos because they shot 1 with a house kinda falling down but it was a day before 9/11 so they said it was too much like the scenes on tv. You can see the video on Chronicles 2.
Submitted by: anonymous Tom wrote this song not mark, and he wrote it because when he was 18 his parents divorced and he was sitting on his drive way when it all happened.
Submitted by: SL339 My parents are not divorced but they fight a lot so I love this song. I write poetry also so I love the lyric "If a stupid poem could fix this home I'd read it every day" When Blink182 was making the music video they were going to show a wrecking ball knocking down a house as a metaphor for a ruined house but the next day 9/11 happened and they thought the idea of a building falling down might offend people so they re-shot the video and changed it.
