Lyrics:
Oh, when I was young
I was so full of fear
I hid behind anger, held back the tears
It was me against the world
I was sure that I'd win
But the world fought back, punished me for my sins
I felt so alone
So insecure
I blamed you instead, made sure I was heard
And they tried to warn me
Of my evil ways
But I wouldn't hear what they had to say
I was wrong
Self destruction's got me again
I was wrong
I realize now that I was wrong

[@AmyraCarter]

Sound in theory but in practicality, not so much. One must do for themselves before they can do for others is far more accurate. Thing is, the heart wants what the heart wants but it is usually our minds that tell our hearts to fuck off. The mind can be swayed, the heart is much more difficult. For those who don't understand what I am saying... You can love others without loving yourself; the bullshit people say that defies this core logic is the nature of humans dominating other humans. Yeah, let's just not go there, because I'm providing you all the view of humanity from the eyes of a deity now.

That drummer (Chuck Biscuit) is old skool LA punk rock just like Social D was. I was there for most of it, and we are all old now so that is part of it. and maybe he is stoned but I remember him doing that back in the early 80's. and I think the thing at :059 is supposed to be a vein scarred from slamming dope. Just a guess of course. And SD does not have to prove they are hard core for middle school kids (as someone commented). they proved it back when I was in middle school. way before personal computers, the internet or DVDs, and a few years before MTV. What a great time we had back then! You could see a handful of great bands back then - on 2 foot high riser (no stage) in a dive bar in Hollywood, or in a garage in the valley for free or for $5 bucks tops. Now you have to wait on lines and shell out some cash to see these bands, but I am glad they made it and are making money. It was fun to be a punk back those days but it was not a picnic. No one liked punks and there was a lot of violence back then. And I am a female. But I wouldn't have missed it for anything. See the "another state of mind" tour of SD and Youth Brigade and you will see some of what Mike is saying he was wrong for. and yes, good on him he's sober now (we all are sober or dead at this point). He connected with so many people by writing about how he really felt and his program, process etc... and since I saw him at his worse, I know he knows what he's talking about and I respect these songs. Oh and my teenage self was so in love with Dennis (all of us girls were). RIP Dennis he really was the most mellow and least screwed up one in the band imho.

[@catemcmillian6622]

My friend got me into SD a little while ago. They’re not what I typically listen to, but what I really appreciate about them is how honest and stripped down their lyrics are. I’ve heard many songs about hardships and feeling like you just wanna give up, and with SD, this is coming from a guy who knows just what it’s like to struggle. It’s no secret that Ness had a heroin addiction that almost derailed his life in the 80s. In fact, it’s one of the first things I learned about him. And I’ve had my share of hardships being a high schooler during Covid, which obliterated my social life. I’m telling you, he has a powerful voice

Awesome to to know that younger folk are listening to SD!

[@rennigaderedd9483]

That video hit to close to home.

[@rockycavignac6152]

This world needs some more of this.... . Being able to recognize and then admitting you were wrong.... Phenomenal song!!!

[@TheKevo7777]

Tell it!

[@psycho6275]

Soc D is a absolutely awesome band, kinda reminds me of the Ramones in the sense of how underrated both bands were

[@Nick-hi9gx]

Self destruction has me again, currently. Need to hear this song every once in awhile. Thanks Mike.

[@spacetruckerdan6827]

True blazing Rock&roll.

I'm getting old... "The only person I hurt was myself" means a lot more now than it did when it came out in 1996 when I was new to the streets of Toronto at 15 yrs old.

When I was a teenager my grades sucked. I didn’t have any communication or relationship with my dad and my mom was in and out of rehab. School failed me and I didn’t understand the point at all. I enjoyed testing authority and got arrested a few times with no respect for rules as long as I wasn’t hurting anybody. But I had a punk rock band. I felt like this song really got me at that time. Thank God I had my band and music to get me through it.

[@bubba19065]

How can you love, when you don't love yourself? great lyric.

[@brianb_1085]

This is their best song.

[@xwagner76]

Great band. Truly a great band. Thank you, Senor Ness.

[@AltRckGal]

Yeah he is something, we need more guys like him

[@metalart5369]

This song really hits hard. Thank you Mike Ness for making this killer song.

[@user-zg7ef5wd9j]

This is our signature song that my band covers

[@Offroadandmusicfan]

Still rocking this on 10/20 2020

[@lasscozasvivas1075]

El habla de sus heridas. Por eso esta cancion tiene esa vibra tan especial cuando canta y se funde con las guitarras

[@kennyburris158]

Very few have the guts to admit they were wrong

[@janicerebura2610]

I love this song. Great memories and great video. Rock on!💙💚💖

[@KAYUPAN]

Temazo !!!!!! Grande Social Distortion Saludos desde Temuco-Chile.

[@konstantinmeyer8621]

Quite some years ago, my father played that song for me from tape in his car over and over, again.. Meanwhile, I think I exactly know, why.. And besides: It was the total ignition of young Konstantin raising interest for this outstanding band. Social D is simply one of the most important, musical influences of my adolescence and nowadays one of my all-time-favorites. Thanks for that, Mike and folks.

[@trentynwaring4170]

Today I got the title tattooed, as my reminder to be a better man. I grew up pissed off at the world, and anyone who I cared for would end up getting hurt by me in some way. It's cost me friendships, my engagement, and now I'm left back starting over again. It's my reminder to admit when I'm wrong, stop being so angry, don't be hurtful, but heal. It took many years coming, and I'll get shit for it, but it's my most meaningful in my 40+ I've got now.

[@GreenDay1981]

My #1 favorite SD song! The vocals are so damn powerful, I could listen to this over and over. The drummer, Chuck Biscuits, reminds me of the drummer for Foo Fighters.

[@davidh.-realestatebroker1515]

No one can slam like chuck biscuits. Saw him live on the first Danzig tour in the 80s. Mind blowing.

[@pauldhiman8369]

Chuck is a legend
