As much as I love this band, I have trouble listening to them. It brings me back to back times when I was 19 and my biggest worry was if the girl in my class had a crush on me. I have bigger worries these days, and it's tough to re-visit those carefree times knowing I will never have them again.

i have the same kind of trouble listening to them nowadays too, their first album is up there with my all time favourites, however when i listen to it - it really makes me revisit those feelings and gets me in a very depressive state like i was when i was younger (15-17) in high school and it really puts a barrier between me and enjoying the music. still awesome that they're back together and making new music though.

That’s kind of what their song “Honestly?” is about- someone looking back on their problems when they were young, at the time they seemed like the biggest problems in the world but they’re older now and have new problems, and they sort of miss those “simple” ones they had. At least that’s what I get from it.
