Skupina byla založena v Ajaxu, na předměstí Toronta v létě roku 1996. Prvními zakládajícími členy byli kytarista a zpěvák Deryck Whibley a bubeník Steve Jocz. Ještě téhož roku se ke kapele přidali kytarista Dave Baksh a baskytarista Mark...
What happened to you?
You've played the victim for so long now in this game
What I thought was true
It's made of fiction and I'm following the same
But if I try
To make sense of this mess I'm in
I'm not sure where I should begin
I'm falling
I'm falling
Now I'm in over my head
For something I said
Completely misread
I'm better off dead
And now I can see
How fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to me
It's none of my concern
Why look to me cause I don't believe in fame
I guess you never heard
I've met our makers
They don't even know your name
But if I had
To say goodbye to leave this hell
I'd say my time has served me well
I'm falling
I'm falling
Now I'm in over my head
For something I said
Completely misread
I'm better off dead
And now I can see
How fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to
This came long before
Those who suffer more
I'm too awake for this to be a nightmare
What's with my disgrace?
I lost the human race
No one plans for it to
Blow up in their face
Who said it
Was easy
To put back all these pieces?
Who said it was so easy to put back all of these pieces?
Now I'm in over my head
For something I said
Completely misread
I'm better off dead
And now I can see
How fake you can be
This hypocracy's beginning to get to me
Over my head
Better off dead
Over my head
Better off dead
Alright!
