Lyrics:
My teeth are crumbling structures.
My thoughts are spider bites.
I woke up and thought that I was dreaming,
That we had reached the end of time.
And maybe you're a goner,
Oh and maybe I survived.
But I don't really believe it'll end like that,
I'm sure I'll be the first to die.
I'm sure I'll be the first to die.
Til then we struggle for each other.
Til then we struggle for each other.
And on and on and on and on it goes,
We circle round the sun until someday we won't.
And on and on and on it goes,
And I'll love you forever til the day that I don't.
When we were young the world seemed open,
And every face we saw was a smile.
Somewhere along all the masks came down,
And their faces were something unkind.
And I don't know when this will be over.
I'm not sure we come back now.
It's like this world was bitten by its own kind of venom,
And it's gone too deep to suck the poison out.
I don't know if it's true, but it feels like it is now.

Just bought a Ford Bronco and will be taking many road trips. Cannot wait to blast the music with the top down while staring down the open road ahead of me. Songs like this really give me a sense of wonder and magic that is so hard to experience as a 40 year old.

[@jefugh]

It is impossible for Brian Fallon to not write an amazing song.

[@Acreageattachment]

Right??

[@crk140]

So true

[@PunkRockJay]

Well said. Just an amazing song writer. I’m still enjoying the solo records

[@pads-zr9ln]

​@PunkRockJay my only criticism of local honey was it needed more songs

[@ddawg75]

It's possible but, it hasn't happened yet

[@johnmcdonnell003]

New Gaslight, new Blink, and new Menzingers all in the same month. Pinch me, I'm dreaming. I'm so happy TGA is back. Thank you for being here and making new music in 2023, we missed you.

[@bunnyfernwood]

2:38 !!! 🖤💀 love you guys

Huge Congratulations on the new album guys! What an incredible return.

Welcome back TGA. The place where you were in my heart is open again

I am this girl walking through every single party I’ve ever been to.

[@chaceface]

She's giving Thunder Rosa vibes! 🤠

[@carnelianfox5010]

I quoted this song as part of a love letter on the back of a watercolor painting I did for my partner, and they said it brought them tears of joy

[@matthewdennis1739]

A melancholoc lamentation over the loss of youth I can feel in my bones.

[@youclown5878]

After the 30th time in a row playing this, my wife asked how many times I was going to listen to this. I sang 🎵till the day that i don't 🎵

[@Steelers3624]

This music video might be the most Gaslight Anthem thing they've ever done. Love it.

[@EWTB]

As usual these fine sons of New Jersey continue to turn out pure magic. Cheers on the new album boys! 😎🤙

[@Paulosav1970]

The new album is an absolute yawn festival

[@EWTB]

@@Paulosav1970 Bands adapt, change their sound, and progress as they see fit for themselves and their fans. Sometimes it works for some and not for others. Don’t like it? Then don’t listen. Not really sure what else to tell ya

[@JaredHope]

​@@EWTB amen. I'd even go further, I think it's good bands change. If you just make the '59 Sound part 2, 3, 4 and 5, things get stagnant and boring that way too. A guy in his 40's shouldn't write lyrics like he's still in his 20's.

[@pizzajohnnygoomba4575]

I'm 53, been listening to you guys for last 15 years! From Jersey, so I understand the jersey feel to your amazing music! Saw y'all recently in Baltimore, and goin to see Brian in Harrisburg in a few weeks. Thanks for getting back together, and feeding my soul with new sounds.

[@thomasfarmer3241]

Will be there in Harrisburg as well!

[@mikeyhayes7109]

Well they came back with a bang, if I’m understanding this correctly. Cuz it’s my first time hearing of them, and this is the first song ive heard. Immediately a fan 😭🕺🏽

[@Agt.Kraemer]

I love your post! ❤️ You must be a lost Gaslight brother. Welcome!!!

[@JaredHope]

I'm a little jealous. If you're just getting into listening to TGA, you've got a ton of great music in your future.

[@strangewayfaringstranger]

Well go explore their music, I have all their albums except this new one. Check out The Horrible Crowes.

[@goldenageenthusiast]

I wish I could relive the moment I heard Great Expectations for the first time.

[@jeffreyd3794]

Absolutely amazing song. I dreamed of the day The Gaslight Anthem would get back together and start making music again. After getting to see them live a couple of months ago to finding the new LP sitting on my front porch this morning, it is indeed a good time to be alive. Welcome back Gaslight Anthem, we need you.

[@AmericanVetMusic]

My gods this is epic. They touch a part of me that was left three decades ago in the old Kansas fields.

Looking forward to seeing them in London. This new album the first thing to put a smile on my face this year.

[@TheMart]

What’s that? Yup the feeling of instantly loving a song. Thanks boys!!

[@olddrunkendiscography]

Wow. This is TGA I remember and love!

[@Richard.Gauthier]

It's great to have you back guys. Keep it up

[@thereminthoughts]

All of the new songs are really good, and this is probably the best so far in my opinion. Anyone else watch this multiple times trying to find the band? Haha

[@gadflyrock]

Damn guys, right in the existential feels as usual.

[@lorijohnson2348]

I’m just happy to have discovered this band!!

[@jonathanschaefer2676]

My brother introduced me to the Gaslight Anthem and Brian a couple years ago, and it’s been really awesome to get into their music as they get back together and release more stuff! Love the new stuff!

[@gregbrown3082]

I’m kind of the opposite! Early fan, and I only knew skinny Brian. The band is bigger now! And so is he. 😂

[@Acreageattachment]

Typical Brian Fallon fashion. Just when I’m grieving of a death of loved one today 57 minutes releases this beautiful new song with the best musical group ever. Thank you GLA

[@crk140]

Well said

Please come in Italy. Please. You are an important part of my Heart. My favourite band. Please..I don't wanna die before see you guys.

[@LoveMUSIC-p7e]

Sad, sweet and beautiful. This song is a wonderful Masterpiece

[@aaronhoepner3154]

Sounds just great. I've been into you guys almost 15 years now. Can't wait to listen to next chapter.

[@holidayonion]

Two and a half hours to go before the US gets to hear this masterpiece of an album! I'm also super excited to see you guys for this tour cycle. Please come back to Portland, Maine!

[@IntoTheVerticalBlank]

When this album arrives, it goes on my phone and will be on replay for the next month to be the sound track to my life.

[@bookadaycontent]

I will never understand why I've been a fan of Jersey Rock for quite a few years and Brian Fallon only wound up on my radar a few weeks ago. This song is pure perfection, gritty introspective, and the exact thing I needed at this exact moment. The backdrop of more driving drums against the bitter lessons we realize as we get older is sound perfection.

[@crk140]

Check out the older stuff, amazing music

[@andrewvanbezooijen5181]

Good to see Bond Street and Asbury Park make an appearance! Looking forward to listening to the album all the way through

[@qitiandaw2890]

Damn, didn’t put the connection between this song (being the first track off of History Books) and Halloween (the last track on the Deluxe bonus edition) until watching this video.

[@alexandrac591]

Damn. I *really* love this. The Halloweeny release, the video, the title, and of course the song. Love them.

[@Karen-ne4wq]

Who is that beautiful woman who's smile closes out the video? The man with her is so handsome! This song is fantastic! Wonderful job by the band and film crew.

[@luxpjamer]

The waiting was worth ❤ you guys came back with an incredible album. It‘s been a long time a record touched me like „history books“. You‘re one of the most important bands, musicians of my life. Thanks for being back, thanks for this record which means a lot to many

This song is really growing on me. TGA doesn't have anything I don't like, but this has gone from like to love and I can't get it out of my head.

[@MegaBlackley]

Rapidly moving towards my favorite song on the album. And this is an album where almost everything is great. It's one of those rare start to finish albums where you can put it in and enjoy an entire play through.

[@Agt.Kraemer]

Incredible… heard it on my headphones now. The fine tunes and details come trough and make it even more intense. The songwriting hits straight in the heart. What a band. Did expect sth. I like because it is by far my favourite band. But this record hits on so many different levels. Damn!

[@Puffy_Mario]

That happened to me too! With this song and Autumn in particular. I thought Little Fires was my favorite song on the album, but now I can't decide.

[@wildaysean]

Punk Rock is alive and well. It's going to be a boom again, thanks to GLA and all the others keeping it moving.

[@victorsaldarriaga105]

Thank you, TGA. We all have been needing this...for many years.

[@666Uploadz]

this is reminiscent of the basement parties my grandparents & great grandparents had in the 50s & earlier. A/C wasn't really around so people had parties in basements b/c it was cooler. I actually remember going to some in the 80s when i was real little. Nostalgia to the max here.

[@PunkRockJay]

First Autumn, and then this. This won’t leave my turn table for a month

[@MrRubkeDupke]

I love the videoclip saying "No Vaping" instead of "No Smoking" when she walks down the stairs. So 20's!!! This is an amazing song of an amazing Album.

[@faccsmachine]

I love this band.

[@xemodadx]

As every single thing Brian creates to me is just perfect I am left to ask can he make something bad? I don't think so, I know people sleep on American Slang but I will emphatically state I feel it's just as skip-free as The 59 Sound. I also think how amazing that The Boss has shared a stage with them and not taken over which to me means someone on the level of Bruce playing with and being so excited it seems to do it is quite the honor.

The Halloween costume cameo was perfection.

[@robslevin7555]

Why ?

[@justinsawyer7483]

@@robslevin7555 it was the exact costume and makeup they used in their live performances of the song. It was cool to see them use it in this video after all these years. Just a nice nod to their past.
