“I MISS 2003” is the fifth single from As It Is‘ fourth studio album, “I WENT TO HELL AND BACK.” It contains numerous references to the early-2000’s pop-punk scene, an era which the band came of age in the heart of.
The band described the song as “our love letter to the scene–the bands that paved t...
[Verse 1]
I’ve been feeling old and out of context
And if I’m really being honest
I miss everything I had at sixteen
Now I’m feeling miserable at best
I guess that’s what you get when your dirty little secret is
How I miss the year that gets me
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003
[Chorus]
Now life is boring, let’s write a story where we never grow up
Still four in the morning, singing New Found Glory at the top of our lungs
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003
[Verse 2]
I’m in the middle of a crisis
Welcome to my life, no I don’t think that I like this
I can’t believe I got this jaded (got this jaded)
I remember singing to "The Anthem"
My friends were the best, wish I knew it when I had them
‘Cause now it’s kind of complicated
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003
[Chorus]
Now life is boring, let’s write a story where we never grow up
Still four in the morning, singing New Found Glory at the top of our lungs
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003
[Bridge]
I’d drive through every red light just so I could press rewind
(We’ll go back in time)
So let me kill the headlights, maybe if we close our eyes
(We’ll go back in time)
I’d drive through every red light just so I could press rewind
(We’ll go back in time)
So let me kill the headlights, maybe if we close our eyes
(We’ll go back in time)
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003
[Chorus]
Now life is boring, let’s write a story where we never grow up
Still four in the morning, singing New Found Glory at the top of our lungs
So tell me that you’re alright, ‘cause I’m not okay
I left the best of me in 2003

As It Is released I MISS 2003 on Thu Nov 11 2021.
This was the last song written for the album, written and tracked in the last two days of recording, thematically, there was little left unsaid on the album, which is always a liberating feeling because no risk is off limits anymore. Why not write a love song about the bands that sparked a fire insi...
