    Why Simple Plan Were The Perfect Compliment To Your Angst Filled Early Teens

    You loved them growing up because they understood. They saved you.

    Remember this song? I'D DO ANYYYTHING.

    That was 12 years ago.

    12 years ago these adorable Canadian Pop-Punk bad boys ruled MTV

    And they understood you like no one else could

    They understood just how hard your life was

    And how awful your parents were

    This song was your anthem

    And now I try hard to make it
    I just wanna make you proud
    I'm never gonna be good enough for you
    I can't stand another fight
    And nothing's alright

    'Cause we lost it all
    Nothing lasts forever
    I'm sorry
    I can't be perfect

    And taught you how to deal with everything

    And then they reminded you to enjoy being a kid

    And that meant being silly

    Thank you, Simple Plan
