I've been up. Spending every late night. In my car. Listening. To all these sad songs. I know it sounds weird. But they're helping me. Move past all these things. Running through my head.

[@kylesingley7091]

Some of the most raw and honest lyrics I've ever heard. Going to buy everything they've ever released, now.

[@sphinxcanuel]

I remember this song on my playlist on 2013, college back in the Philippines. Then I watched The Maine here in the U.S. together with Real Friends, The Technicolors and Knuckle Puck (2015) They played this song and I didn’t realize it was them that was in my playlist. Haha. Awesome night! They are great!

[@Rick-mo2zm]

As a 40 year old going through a bunch of shit and somehow stumbling across this song on a random playlist, I love it. Feels like I could have wrote this myself.

[@kylerood8188]

Hang in there bro. glad you found this. I'm mid 30's and I shot this tour on assignment from Vans when I was a lot younger and wished they were on my list, I had no idea. Super relatable band, also their new stuff is amazing too. They're coming to Florida so I finally get to see them while I'm not working.

[@clayyayy]

Stop complaining about sleepy eyes and bony knees and start embracing it.

[@Jvdg3m3nt]

It's about the bassists depression. He wasn't sleeping or eating because of it. Not really something you want to embrace.

[@clayyayy]

James Hack I know. I was just saying, for the people who keep complaining about it.

[@clayyayy]

James Hack Really, I've been there before, that's part of why I like the music, it's easy for me to relate to. Not saying that we should celebrate depression, but it makes me feel better knowing there's someone that has felt the same way, you know? And feeling better is cool, because then I can get out and start enjoying life and stuff. (y)

[@Blake19d]

James Hack I'd like to embrace it because it takes a lot for him to share his life like that so props for that.

[@coolazn81]

I'll embrace.. your mom, at night...

[@celesterivero2080]

Lots of "“Sleepy Eyes and Bony Knees" in their lyrics, but I still love them, ha.

[@azhleyzz]

sleepy eyes and bony knees club 💖✌️

[@OnTheOpenRoad123]

Ashley Brooks Hey you might like our song! Check out our new music video for "Harm's Way" :D

[@Bassdude]

Celeste Rivero Hey guys, I think there’s something that needs to be explained on our end here. We released a new EP on June 4th titled “Put Yourself Back Together.” There are some references in the songs that mention sleepy eyes and bony knees. There have been some negative comments regarding the amount of times we mention those two things. I want to make this post to explain the detailed meanings of both of those subjects. I assure all of you out there that we would never put something in multiple songs that doesn’t have a great amount of meaning. These songs are my life summed up into some verses and choruses. These songs are my therapy, and that goes for the four other dudes in my band too. So here we go…. Sleepy eyes refers to a time in my life in 2011. I was going through a very messy break up which then lead to a love triangle and that lead me to be depressed. The girl that I was in love with since I was eighteen had found someone else that she grew to love. She told me that she still loved me as well though. This lead to lots of sleepless nights and some weight loss as well. Thirty pounds of weight loss to be exact. Listen to our song “Floorboards” for more details on that whole situation. Well anyway, this situation and some other ones over the past few years have led me to not being able to sleep at night. I had resorted to sleeping pills in 2011 when I was depressed. I also consider myself a night owl in general. I haven’t gone to bed before 2 am in years. But mainly sleepy eyes is something that I think we have all been through in life. It’s about those nights when you’re so overworked and have so much going on that you can’t fall asleep, even if you are physically tired. Not only do I write these songs for my own therapy, but I would hope that some of you could find some peace in them. So of course I’m going to reference this subject multiple times. And that is sleepy eyes. Bony knees is a subject that pops up in a lot of our songs as well. I will keep it general at first here. I in fact do physically have bony knees. But I will surely say that there is a way deeper meaning behind these bony knees. It kind of all dates back to my depression in 2011. Like I stated before there was some weight loss, which made these knees a little more bony than before. I also found myself physically and mentally down on my knees while going through depression. Even after 2011, after I started feeling better, I would still find myself down and out on my bony knees physically and mentally. We all go through dirt in life and lot of times it makes us fall on our knees for awhile. I can easily say that dirt has put me on my knees more than I want to say. But the beautiful part about falling on your knees is getting back up. And that’s the main point of the bony knees reference. You have to get up in life and move on. We have all been there and we will all be there again. When I write bony knees in a song it reminds me of how I put all of the bullshit behind me and moved on. And that is bony knees. I just wanted to clear this all up. I don’t want anyone to ever think that we are using this as some sort of gimmick or something. We keep things real and it will always be that way. I hope you can all now find deeper meaning and connection with sleepy eyes and bony knees. -Kyle

[@celesterivero2080]

Ashley Brooks yes!

[@metagunify]

+Funkenstein I know this is three months late but thank you for explaining that! I hope every album you guys make mentions bony knees.

[@geneticmaskmen]

i used to be hardcore then this song hit me in my boney knee

[@hezkywardhana1563]

2021 visit this video again to nostalgia how great pop punk music in Early 00s era, best era where the musicians make the song for expression theyre life.

[@greenmilklatte]

[@kablamitscorey]

It was part of the concept of the album, the lead singer explained it on Facebook.

If you just knew the backround about this you wouldn't complain.

Same shitty comment complaining about sleepy eyes and bony knees. How original.

[@tylerfields8095]

its called a fucking motif

[@TysonIsKetchy]

so glad to discover this band! such heartfelt lyrics

[@brendahurtado2251]

I've been up spending every late night in my car Listening to all these sad songs I know it sounds weird But they're helping me move past all these things running through my head I'll blame the mid-west and sleepy eyes I'm not where I should be I'm not what I could be But I'm not who I was Nostalgia gets the best of me When I wake up it's the same day It fucks me up And makes me miss who I used to be All I have are thoughts of me from back when I was 18 And my bony knees Don't want it to be like my teenage years I was naive and weak back then Without much trouble on my shoulders If I don't break I won't know how to put myself back together Nostalgia gets the best of me When I wake up it's the same day It fucks me up And makes me miss who I used to be All I have are thoughts of me from back when I was 18 And my bony knees If you never break You'll never know how to put yourself back together Nostalgia gets the best of me When I wake up it's the same day It fucks me up And makes me miss who I used to be All I have are thoughts of me from back when I was 18 And my bony knees
