LYRICS:
I'm driving on state lines pretending you're standing there
But I know your feet will never be where my eyes fall again
Moving on is something I've always had trouble with
But this year I swear I'll get past it
If I had a backyard I would bury all my memories of you in it
Everything that we had would die right down in the dirt
I wish I had the guts to say this to your face
But the past five years took everything I had and ripped it out of me
You used to make me feel like I was something
Now you make me feel like absolutely nothing
I want to fall asleep and wake up four years ago
We were just kids who didn't know what love was
Or what we were digging ourselves into
I want to know if you ever hear all of these sad fucking songs I write about you
I know you probably hate who I've become
I'm just young and stupid, but that's the way I always want to be
Forever a lost boy with bony knees

[@ryanjones2459]

We were just kids that didn't know. Anyone else 25 and remembering the good ol days?

[@darianthedevil1423]

Yup

[@xMordecaizZx]

[@bigredactionsportsstuff1245]

How's that going?

[@gingerkidmatt]

RIP real friends it just wont be the same without Dan

[@jorgefarias7643]

I'm a fucking lost boy with bony knees.

[@nyssamorgan]

their songs always just speak to me like they write them for me it's so cool I love these guys so much

[@studdedleatherlace]

I'll never stop coming back here.

[@emilybrooks4016]

Growing up in Chicago where these guys came from, I can definitely relate to the line “if I had a backyard”.

[@ridkid87]

This entire goddamn album personifies my life.

[@reeseiree7157]

this band gives me the chills bc they're so amazing

[@Olivia-db5tv]

I miss you, Real Friends

[@edgykid1208]

"I want to know if you ever hear all of these sad fucking songs I write about you" gives me chills every time.

[@Dani22Fani]

Just found you guys and i am questioning where y'all have been all my life?! I absolutely love your music!

[@JaredFasshauer]

"Bony Knees refers to obviously my bony knees. I’m a skinny dude and it was something that stuck out to some people I know. I went through depression in 2011 and decided to put the term “bony knees” in our song “Floorboards.” It represents getting off of your knees and standing on your own two feet in a mental way. I’m sure we can all relate to being down and out. This is what this refers to." - from their website, i was curious as well haha

[@kynansmusic9724]

FOREVER A LOST BOY WITH BONEY KNEES!

[@angelzgalaxy4975]

[@PinkFloydrulez]

good pop punk is an art

[@danielroe1670]

[@Modist802]

[@Anonymous-qu5jj]

[@juleszotta1298]

Oh my god.. Im seriously like, smiling because of this song. This band is amazing ;~;

[@laurensabino182]

What's with them and bony knees?

[@uhhhmaeve]

Kyle, the lyricist/bassist has bony knees... thus he writes about them.

[@laurensabino182]

greendaythebeatles I actually read something he wrote about all of this, there's more to it than that but thanks

[@oli-yj3it]

Lauren Sabino bony knees symbolize people /mostly kyle fasel/ getting up and moving forward and getting along with everything. sleepy eyes is for the nights you WANT to sleep but you can't fall asleep due to thinking too much and anxiety/other mental illnesses getting the best of you.

[@ryandicksen8377]

Stuff Real Friends sings about:
1. Boney knees
2. Sleepy eyes
3. The Midwest

[@agencysmile]

obsessed with them.

[@rrosewaterr]

I love Peter Pan and this is one of my favorite bands and the fact that they have mushed together in this song makes me happy :)

[@SmithvilleShit]

Knew this song would be the best song off this album when I first heard it live. So perfect!

[@trentjeffrey]

this is one of the most relatable songs I've ever heard.

[@mckinleytinny]

Matchbook Romance vibes ❤

[@blink182SkatePopPunk]

One of the best songs to come out as of late, holy shit

[@kayliecarter1288]

I have a saying on my real friend shirt sayingYou used to make me feel like I was something
Now you make me feel like absolutely nothing

[@htmlxcoreable]

Have the same shirt...and my gf literally just broke up with me for some scumbag in her past ha...song pretty much describes my feelings..

[@Eshkanama]

+htmlxcoreable I know how you feel

[@aluviper293]

my best friend left the same shirt at my house and it still smells like her house. She said she wanted nothing to do with me anymore 8 months ago and its all I really have left.

[@hannahhanlon9537]

I got mine at the goodwill because I liked the floral pattern and now I'm here

[@MaximillionBlake]

Warped Tour June 15th can't come soon enough

[@DeluxeTwinkies]

The Wonder Years barely used "I'm not sad anymore" in their new album. That was mainly for the Upsides album. Each of their albums have kind of a tag line.

[@Brianxxdunwichxx]

This basically sums up my life right now. Thank you @realfriends. Thank you.

[@LoganShepp]

yeah this is gold.

[@mikeynonutz]

I am forever a lost boy with bony knees

[@armandovicario7977]

Me two

[@clownhard2525]

Il make sure il get it I loved your show in Detroit

[@hushitsmusic4592]

That intro sounds so much like the intro to Always you by Amber Pacific lol still really good though influences within music awesome to hear how they make it their own

[@roxsweety]

IVE SEEN THIS SONG LIVE BE JEALOUS!

[@WonTomYT]

new favorite band

[@Satanicole]

Perfect.

[@danielledee80]

describes basically my life beside being a lost boy with bony knees haha love this song (:

[@KidCypherOfficial]

Sooo goooooddd

[@zachminder8084]

Pop punk is the fucking bomb. Love stuff like this, Sum 41, Green Day, All American Rejects, Juice Wrld, and Lil Peep 💜

[@jpscreamo]

You're absolutely amazing

[@diegojuarez852]

really awesome!!!!! boys success!!!! from Mexico...

[@Etrayu85]

music is music, no matter how many people, it can be whatever genre the person wants it to be :3 ,be respectful cx

[@ladyykattie]

"Bony Knees" is Real Friends tag line. Like The Wonder Years used to use "I'm not sad anymore"in a lot of their songs . I think it's cool, but it can get sort of old after a while.
Still love this band.

[@drhodes143]

Anticipated for when they finally record a full length.

[@schizophrenicdolphinz9822]

i know you probably hate who i’ve become , i’m just young and stupid , that’s the way i’m always gonna be , forever a lost boy with bony knees

[@beavisandbuttsex]

see you there!

[@daveevise]

i wanna go to sleep and wake up 4 years ago 😖

[@Goldeneye555]

So fucking underrated

[@LiveConcertsVIds182]

See Real Friends and more, Saturday, November 9th at The Brighton Bar in Long Branch, NJ!

[@ValApollonio]

Forever a lost boy with bony knees

[@sinclairryanl]

Every time The Wonder Years use the word "stay", take a shot.

[@facgce960]

The intro reminds me of TSSF

[@PoStarNickTLover13]

AWESOME SONG:)

[@gnarscarscanlon]

would kill for an acoustic version!

[@kevinfuckingsullivan]

all of them that sum up my life...duh.

[@kenleoanchetaramirez8632]

I salute you guys!

[@tofaided]

Literally was with my girlfriend for 5 years this song is on point ...

[@ToriFortuna]

Take a shot every time "bony knees" are mentioned in a Real Friends song.

[@komradekush3411]

Maybe it's like a signature? I'm gonna buy their bony knees shorts from their merch store!

[@abyssalspecter93]

Probably all of the people in the world that have a different perspective of music and enjoy something else.

[@Joshmarmolejo_]

Whats with this guy and his bony knees?

[@armandovicario7977]

Emotional pop punk needs to make a comeback although I still have a special placement for easycore.

[@IAgreeWithCC]

Oh man wow dang come on geez like whooooaaaaaa too good for the hood

[@kevinfuckingsullivan]

this song basically sums up my life. haha great...

[@cheeseman4444]

best song on this EP, besides maybe I've Given Up On You

[@beggingforpontmercy]

sleepy eyes and bony knees

[@antoniomartinez9869]

I also suffer from boney knees!
It's a rare disease lmao

[@jeffbrown9594]

I hate how people compare Sleepy Eyes or Bony Knees to I'm not sad anymore. That line was only in the upsides and was not on every track as everyone is making it out to be. Please stop comparing please they are two completely different things and two different bands.

[@jgrip1213]

just laughed ridiculously hard... thanks for that :p

[@christianans.2363]

You used to make me feel like I was something
Now you make me feel like absolutely nothing

[@twables1]

Dude fuck yes. See you there! haha I totally agree

[@MaximillionBlake]

Fuck yeah screaming every word let's goooo

[@StandardToaster123]

Man, these guys are fucking rad. I just wish they would've played my Warped date.

[@1337pudding]

Someone without bony knees.

[@julianchawla7613]

Real Friends makes anyone posi

[@FRAUSTIN867]

can somebody compile every SE and BK line into one video?

[@TheArcticGiantWalks]

Sounds very similar to Old ADTR

[@facgce960]

*sighs*
I want a lost boy with bony knees

[@anthonygarcia8508]

As someone with bony knees, I take offense to this band

[@Modist802]

Suck it up! (lol, just kidding.)

[@danielmcknight1446]

[@austingodar267]

[@kieranwood9594]

We want to have a party not ruin our lives

[@iri2228]

[@sebastianjdillingham]
