“Cynical” is the the first song from Blink-182’s California, and the track details co-lead singer and bassist Mark Hoppus' struggle every time he writes a song, fighting back the cynicism and anxiety that he’ll never be able to write a good song again. It also represents Hoppus' feeling and concerns...
Cynical Lyrics
[Intro: Mark Hoppus & Matt Skiba]
There's a cynical feeling saying I should give up
You said everything you'll ever say
There's a moment of panic when I hear the phone ring
Anxiety's calling in my head
Is it back again?
Are you back again?
[Drum Solo]
[Spoken: Travis Barker]
Ah!
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus & Matt Skiba]
Don't wake me up before you leave
Is there the slightest trace of what you once believed? Woahh
I feel your hand unlock the door
Leaving fingerprints of water in the oil, woahh
[Chorus: Matt Skiba]
What's the point of saying sorry now?
Lost my voice while fighting my way out
While fighting my way out
What's the point of saying sorry now?
Not sorry, not sorry, not sorry, I'm not sorry
Lost my voice while fighting my way out
Not sorry, not sorry, not sorry, I'm not sorry now...
