    Haha, that was weird. I was thinking "man, it would be so sweet if Tom were to just look at Mark and tell him that Going away to college is one of his favorite songs".
    Lo and behold, he actually did say that. So awesome.

    It makes me happy as a Blink fan to hear Tom say this is one of his favorite songs they wrote and it was one of Mark's songs. Going away to college is hands down my favorite song by them and I'm so happy it holds significance to them too.

    It kinda seems like Mark loves every minute of this, but knows whats about to happen to the band, and it makes him kinda sad

      Every time Tom starts introducing songs like they're so meaningful and special, basically doing what he does with AvA now... like a generic rocker, "this song, this song is uh... it's about that time.. when.. y'know ...
      Mark looks dead in the eyes. Every show. Every time. It's like he's not with that.
      Leads me to believe they had differing ideals for the band.

    It's so cold out tonight
    I'll put blankets on the bed
    But I won't turn out the light
    Just don't forget to think about me
    And I won't forget you
    I'll write you once a week she said
    Once a week she said
    Why does it feel the same
    To fall in love or break it off
    And if young love is just a game
    Then I must have missed the kick off
    Don't depend on me to ever follow through on anything
    But I'd go through hell for you and
    I haven't been this scared in a long time
    And I'm so unprepared so here's your valentine
    Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
    This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful, Skylee
    And I'll think about the times
    You kissed me after class
    And you put up with my friends
    I acted like an ass
    I'd ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer
    Is my picture still hanging in your locker?
    I haven't been this scared in a long time
    And I'm so unprepared so here's your valentine
    Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
    This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful
    I haven't been this scared in a long time
    And I'm so unprepared so here's your valentine
    Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
    This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful
    To Travis
    Hey Mark
    Hey, if you guys are anything like me
    You like to dress up in your mother's underwear
    And walk around the house trying to seduce your father
    What? Just me?
    I'm like you, I try to seduce your dad
    Remember, that one time when I walked over to your house
    And your brother was there with the peanut butter
    Smeared all over his wiener
    And he's all "Come here boy! Come here! Come here boy!
    Who likes the Skippy? Who likes the Skippy peanut butter?
    This song is really hard to play- (Give it up for Tom)
    It's really hard to play, I would appreciate
    If you don't listen to me for the next two and a half minutes
    Alright? Shut the fuck up!
