"A guy walks up to me and asks 'What's Punk?'. So I kick over a garbage can and say 'That's punk!'. So he kicks over a garbage can and says 'That's Punk'?, and I say 'No that's trendy'!"- Billie Joe Armstrong, Green Day


Let’s blow this sky wide open
We can dance beneath the fireworks
We can dance above the clouds
Let’s blow this sky wide open
And run away from everything we hold dear
Give me your hand if you’re with me

The calendars have all run out
And the photographs you left are gone
I’ve got one shot, let’s make this count
Give me your hand if you’re with me
Give me your hand if you’re with me

The doors are locked, and the lights are out
I’ll call out to you, now don’t be shy
We’ll paint memories before we fade away
Now take a stand if you’re with me
And give me your hand if you’re with me

The words on the page are running dry
There’s only so much I can promise
But at least I’ll go down fighting
And when everything I love is gone
I’ll always have the clouds for company

Let’s blow this sky wide open
Take a deep breath, let’s dive
Let’s blow this sky wide open
You’ll never know until you try
Let’s blow this sky wide open
Give me your hand if you’re with me
