[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
There's an echo pulling out the meaning
Rescuing a nightmare from a dream
The voices in my head are always screaming
That none of this means anything to me

[Pre-Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I... I'm not coming home

[Chorus: Matt Skiba + Mark Hoppus]
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long

[Verse 2: Matt Skiba]
There's a stranger staring at the ceiling
Rescuing a tiger from a tree
The pictures in Mark's head are always dreaming
Each of them means everything to me

[Pre-Chorus: Matt Skiba]
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I... I'm not coming home

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long

[Bridge: Mark Hoppus]
I think I met her at the minute that the rhythm was set down
I said I'm sorry I'm a bit of a let down
But all my friends are daring me to come over
So I come over and over and over
So let me buy you a drink
And we'll pretend that you think
That I'm the man of your dreams
Come to life in a dive bar
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over
And we'll go over and over and over

[Chorus: Mark Hoppus]
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long

[Outro: Matt Skiba]
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh (life is too short to last long)
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh

[estebanjimenez]

I wish it was recorded in a studio rather than live but it gives a connection feeling to fans with the audience singing along and it's the perfect eat to end the record..

[Melanie-bikj]

Matt's vocals in this are truly amazing.

[jakegreene]

The harmony during the chorus is freaking awesome.

[kel]

I love the fact that Matt is Matt, he doesn't pretend to be Tom.. don't get me wrong, I love who Tom WAS but Matt is the man! now I can't see blink without him anymore, his voice and lyrics brought another fresh and young spirit to the band, greetings from Brazil.

[TheJAMES]

Legend says if you're early Blink 182 doesn't give a shit.

[JerOutlaw]

sounds much better with Mark singing in his natural vocal range

[Enzoheavenly]

Now I can't stop singing 'The pictures in Mark's head are always dreaming'

[VeryDemure]

This song reminds me of the time my boyfriend ditched a party to stay home with me. We were in our lazy clothes coloring and made out to this song, it was cute. He recently passed away last month and now this song means so much more to me..."life is too short to last long" which is true. Now every time I listen to this song it reminds me of him and that day we spent together. I will always love you Evan Spencer Olinyk ❤️

[fegale]

Like how we all press so fast the notif button just to hear blink 😍 it's like a big family i will never know

[Stellar]

Mark is one of the most genuine, talented, and beautiful humans. I adore him ❤

[avhem]

1:18 anybody heard "pictures in Mark's head are always dreaming" ?

[wriglarzzz]

Blink 182 with all do respect, please ditch John Feldman. both of you can sing, the autotune, pitch correction and harmonizer effects destory the sound of your band. this sounds better because it's natural. I'm still a long time fan and bought all your albums even new.

Lyric: The pictures in her head are always dreaming
Matt: The pictures in "Mark's" head are always dreaming

THE CROWD AT THE END GIVES ME BUTTERFLIES EVERYTIME

[chaseross]

This is probably the best thing Blink has released in a long time. Simply because it doesn't feel like some studio head tweaked the shit out of it with a computer. Most of the new stuff is very overproduced. I hope in the future the band goes for a more real sound or at least changes producers.

[adamforsythe]

More sombre tone to the acoustic version, very enjoyable listen

[andrevrd]

I love this version. The original is great too but this works so well as acoustic. Also in this version you can hear how different Mark and Matt's voices are and they work well together. It the original they sounded similar.

[dnelson]

Sad they didn't change it to "Mark's Head" in this video

[theblackmamba]

Really but why.. Lyrics video.. Why not a live video..I'm not saying it's bad but come on!

[tiramisu]

I swear. I love this band. Not from the beginning, but from all of my heart
