Lyrics:
I'm pulling wings off insects. I'm peeling back my sunburnt skin. I'll wait outside your
bedroom; I hope they let me in. Filling your prescriptions, the orange bottles stare me
down. They're standing at attention-an army on your windowsill. We're all waiting for
good news; hoping you can come home soon. We're all waiting for good news. I've been
acting like I'm strong, but the truth is, I've been losing ground to a hospital too crowded
and a summer winding down. I hadn't seen a heart break until now. I hadn't felt a heartbreak
until now. I grew up on your back porch. I watched the storms light up the clouds.
They hung like paper lanterns to guide the way back towards your house. I've been
putting off long flights hoping that you'll be alright. I'll be there in the meantime. If I'm
in an airport and you're in a hospital bed, what kind of man does that make me?

The Wonder Years are pop punk for people in their 30s. So grateful for this band

If you're cerebral, sad, pensive, and a bit irreverent, you're probably a fan of TWY. This also makes you an awesome human.
That fact that this album is 7 years old and still ahead of the times for pop punk NOW in 2021. God love the wonder years.
Damn, the whole band kills it every fucking time.
This band helps me through so much. No one will ever know what this band means to me.

One of the few mature relatable bands in the pop punk world. This song is my anthem - drove across the country this summer to be with my family after grandfather passed away. Hits home

I lost my mom to cancer too in February (2024) this song broke me
My grandmother is losing her battle with cancer, and i’m stuck working my 9-5 so i don’t end up on the streets. I most likely won’t be there in her last days. This song hits hard. It hurts like hell. But I needed to hear it again. (ETA: I made it home on thanksgiving. She died 6 hours after I left. This went from hurting to HURTING man).
this band is da fakkin bomb! had almost forgotten about this record, gotta listen to it now!

I'm glad to see a band that has been around this long, finally get their due. One of the best 2013. I love the sound they have found. I used to think they were Bad poppy punk band. They are falling into the right music space of indie with the likes of Brand New, Thrice, and The Sounds. Artists with their own amazing sound.
This whole album, but this video in particular, is so meaningful I love it.
Pop punk, this is just a great melodic rock song with amazing lyrics.

I don't get why people call them pop punk. Their music seems much more like Emo as it has screaming, frequent tempo shifts, odd time signatures and confessional lyrics. Not really that poppy
I can't tell you how much this hits home in 2020. My grandfather is in the hospital and I can't see him because of COVID. I'm not expecting great news and my family can't be together to support each other.

i can relate to this. my dad died of covid. and i didn't get to see him to say goodbye
They killed it at HOB anaheim last night. Screamed this song at the top of my lungs. 2 of my aunts have cancer now and this speaks to me like no other. Quickly became one of my favorite bands ever!
How does he sing this without crying? I literally cannot do it.
I sing the bridge so hard when blasting this song in my car.
'If I'm in an airport and your in a hospital bed, what kind of man does that make me...' deep shit right there!

This song is about Dan's grandfather being sick in the hospital after a triple bypass after a series of heart attacks. They left on tour the day of the surgery and were on tour throughout it. Hope the song and video make sense for those of you still confused on it.

Thanks!! I hadn't totally got it until now.
My grandfather figure who had been there for me throughout my life died from lung cancer early this year (2017) and I listened to this on repeat during that time. I love this song and it will always have a special place in my heart 💗
This song makes me think about my grandfather and all the good times I spent with him and the fact that I don't want him to go away

I really wish they had a video for every song on this album. Would be so worth it
The chorus in this song hits like a freight train filled with choir singers
Just saw these guys last night for the first time. They opened with this song and it was crazy.
At first i just thought the video just was random clips. And then when i realized that he had gotten replaced by a doll it became really sad xD
Deep stuff Soupy, deep stuff... I feel your pain man.

Part of this is about a grandparent having a serious illness and not being able to be there for them (presumably because of touring). In previous albums he's referenced his anxiety like collapsing in an Outback Steakhouse when he learned an album leaked (I forget if it's The Upsides or Suburbia) or when they toured the UK etc. Obviously, it's also about how his family/friends tire of having to deal with his issues (it's a shame but it happens) and maybe how his pales in comparison to his grandparent(s).

Simply amazing. These guys never cease to impress.
I can't hold all these feels..
Once again, it's awesome.
I love this. Really great. I also love the filter used when Soupy's looking in through the window towards the end.
Favorite song off The Greatest Generation! So stoked you guys released a video for it!
I saw them play this song recently in RI. It is still one of my favorites from them. If you hear it live it is even better!
instant smiles...absolutely perfect...thank you guys for your inspiring and life saving music
"Hadnt felt a heartbreak until now.." Me the last couple months dealing with my moms death. I miss you mom
This is my favourite song off this album. Quite pleased that they made a video for it. Brightened up my day a bit.
I agree, I forgot about this. I need to listen to this album ASAP
My favorite!
One of the fucking best bands of the latest years. And the whole "The Greatest Generation" is just amazing.
Absolute genius! This video, this song, this band. Nothing but flawless.
This is such a great video for such a great song. I'm seeing you guys on April 18th, which is literally Good Friday ahah. I'm so excited to see you guys and all the other bands on tour! I'll be waiting from about 10 in the morning so I'll see you there!
Hearing this live makes it so much better.
I can't wait to see them at WARPED TOUR.

My dad passed away when I was in my Freshmen year in High School 23 years ago. I just heard this song a day ago while I had my #applemusic library on shuffle and I just broke down
Really good, guys!!!
Much love from India.
this is my jam ^^
Soupy's beard game is strong right now
wowza this is very emoish, i can really relate ygm xoxox
I know you're meant to respect other people's musical opinions, but if you don't love this you're simply wrong.
Definitely my favourite pop-punk band ever
Absolute fucking gold! I'm young and il admit I go through "phases" with my music. But not in the sense I grow out of it, it's just words aren't gonna b relatable throughout ur entire life. But there is my all time favorite bands like "disturbed" "the Beatles" and now "the wonder years" u guys r immortalized to me. U r musical genius and will forever b amazing at what u do! U inspired me to write again. But more specifically I love this song because I just moved and left my best friend. We got into u guys as I was leaving and this song is perfect "we're all waiting for good news! Hoping u can come home soon" that always gives me chills. This video was perfect! Took me a second to understand it but once I did I loved it! The feeling of being replaced is devastating, and bone chilling terrifying to me. So I say thank you guys! Thank u for inking the words not just on paper but onto history and into our hearts and brains. U guys r forever gods to me! Absolutely love everything about u guys. Sound, members, mascot, and symbolism. Can't wait to go see u guys live one day.
So Amazing :D
AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH MY GOD THIS SONG IS AMAZING
The guitar setup for this band has changed so much since the last record.
gooood sheeeeeettttt
Oh I hope I will be able to get tickets for warped tour! If I go there is no way I'm missing these guys!!!
Greatest band ever
