Jimmy Eat World - 23 Lyrics

This is a stop you in your tracks song. It’s almost impossible for me to hear this and not feel some type a way. Indescribable

PUTIN channel ?)))))

Here cause Steve Smith

Steven Smith... anyone?...

Steve Smith brought me here

Steve Smith Anyone?

Grew up in the late 90s listening to Smashing pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Nirvana & Skid row with my older bro. Always thought bands like Jimmy Eat World and other similar bands were crap and dumb, till i heard this song. Its really not bad, I may be judged tho, fuck it...but its not bad man. Has the feels.

Life is better @ 33 :)


I have one semester left, wasted the first one lol!

I am 23! Amazing still it seems, I'll be 23 - for the next 2 months. Also, today is the 23rd... Coincidence? Illuminati? XD I don't ever want to be older than 23 😣 Very beutiful song, it gets better with everytime i hear it. But it will be so strange listening to it when i am older than 23. Same for music by people younger than me... I feel so old i want a time machine 😭

No matter what happens in my life. This song. Its snaps me back to that particular moment. That moment frozen within time. Ill never get it back. Looking back, I regret nothing. But this song just resonates everything. Im so happy they played it live for me to listen to. They truly are one of those bands that are just fantastic live!

The beginning sounds like “Last day of Summer” by The Cure

It also sounds like the beginning of "Everything is Automatic" by Matthew Good Band

15 years of Futures. Still amazing.

１０代の頃は何も考えてなかった。
若くなきゃ出来ないことがある気がしてすごく焦る。
まだ間に合うかわからないけど頑張る。
俺は今２３歳だ。

don't give away the end.

I just turned 23 last week

aural sex

18, 23, 30 or beyond.. whatever. Sooner or later you'll realize that for 99% of us life sucks.

I used to listen to this song and think 'Wow I'll be 23 one day'. Now I'm 30. Still one of my favourite songs!

I used to listen to this song as a kid, now im 24 but fuck i forgot to listen the whole year when i was 23

Great song! I’m still listening and I will listen - I think this thing will be with you all my life, probably because it touches the strings of the soul, and this is forever))). I first heard this composition in 2004 and that’s it, I was then at university ... and that’s it, it started))). It was then that my acquaintance with this wonderful group began))) "23" is a very cool, atmospheric thing ..., for me, it is the strongest and most emotional, lyrical track in their work, which left a mark in my soul))). What can I say, for many this composition is associated with many life memories. Thanks to the guys for their work. I love their work and I like many songs, I love them for the versatility and contrast in the manner of performing their music, because each of their compositions is unique and has its own unique sounding character, and each album is another experiment in the field of sounding, which is unique)) )

Wow this just took me back. I lost my dad when I was 23. This song. Wow

I’m turning 23 next month I wish I could be 17 forever

Eu tenho 23 anos.. Agora essa música não faz mais sentido pra mim.. mas eu gosto muito aaaaaaaaaa

Lil lotus sampled this

Ive listened to this song since I was 7. Always wondered where I’d be at when I was 23. Now it’s midnight on my birthday and I’m 23.

At 23 now, this song really hits me

Who's here in 2019...so touching

In ways I cannot describe

Few years ago I was on concert.
Thousands of people was crying cause of this song.
Best experience of my life :)
Still crying when I'm hearing it.

Hearing this song for the first time in many years was like a brick to the heart.

One Tree Hill serie Scott

I was 15 when this song was released. I remember thinking that 23 was so far off...I'm nearly 31 now...

Most underrated song ever

My number 1 favorite song ever. Amazing

Now,
At the age of 36, I still feel this number!!
They had such great energy when they toured for this album considering the content

2019 here

Someone needs to make this in nightcore plsssss

This song means more to me than I could ever hope to put into words. I hope that one day I succumb to be the sum of my parts and am able to express how influential it was to the most important development parts of my life.

I’ll be the odd man out in this comment section....... Lil Lotus

You're the odd man out in life. You're used to it.

Robert Baird ok.......

''You'll sit alone forever if....'' ....you are the the only one that still loves this music in 2019...

"You'll sit alone forever if...." you try and look deep in profile pictures.

Almost a year ago i Saw them in mexico, with the woman i love, such a special day and the best concert ever, won't ever forget for the rest of my life

I listened to Jimmy Eat World in high school. Loved them then, but took a break and now, almost 15 years later, I'm coming back and wondering why in the world I ever stopped listening. Amazing lyrics, great music, and awesome memories from when I was younger. Love this stuff

23

Jimmy Eat World

I felt for sure last night
At once we said goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
No one else will know that part of me
I'm still driving away
And I'm sorry every day
I won't always love these selfish things
I won't always live
Not stopping

It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like you do
No one else will have me, only you

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here and now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

Amazing still it seems
Ill be 23
I won't always love what Ill never have
I won't always live in my regrets

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here and now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here and now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Don't give away the end
The one thing that stays mine.

The older I get, harder this song hits me, I remember listening to this album when I was 15 thinking I had so much time before turning 23, now I wish I had more.

I feel you on this, I feel I got no time left!

still listening in 2019 brings back memories.

this song seems to be dedicated to me when I was young 10 years ago back in 2010 :( fuck the assehole I was :(

2019 in here

I remember when i was 17 i used to listen to this song with my eyes closed and in the beginning where it's just music I would invision the rest of my life and how i wanted it to be.. and now that I'm 32 it still gives me those same visions of my life the way I saw it back then...

2019 ❤️

Don't cry

Probably my favourite Jimmy Eat World song ever..

If The Perks of Being a Wallflower were written in 2004, this would be the tunnel song.

2004 was fun. Hearing this for the first time ever today, what if I had heard it then?

And I’m sorry everyday.... A song that is like a medicine. You just can’t have it all the time. It will kill you but you just can’t live without it.

I'm crying right now because I live 2,000 miles from a woman whom I am convinced is the one, but she feels like she disappointed me, and that what she says is not true. SF, if you hear this song, in June of 2019, I want you to be my lifetime that I waited for so long in my life.

Heads up bro :)

It’s like this song was written for me

shits been hard but I'm making moves

There I was in spring of 2005, sitting alone in my first apartment. No furniture, no food, no friends, just broke up with my girlfriend from high school. I sat there listening to this song on repeat, wasn't even 23, I was 19. It was a religious experience, I'll never forget it. Now I'm almost 33, this song is still powerful to me. Takes me back to that moment and I have tears in my eyes. I don't romanticize songs, but this one was the exception.

I was 23 when Futures was released.

Shitttt I am 23 again, got this album back in 05 and listened to death!

lil lotus

I'm 28 and I've been listening to this song since before I turned 23. I can relate to it more now than I did back then

it's really hard when u love someone who doesn't care what u feel.. some day we will find the perfect person even though we think that person was that one💔

Remember being 22 going on 23 and listening this song after midnight when i turned 23. Feels like yesterday man, im 28 now going on 29.

When I first bought this album and heard this song I WAS actually 23. I used to get sad listening to it bc it reminded me of an ex and a better time in my life. Now 37, I've been through my father's suicide, my son (whom I named after my father) was taken away by the state bc his mother (my wife) was doing drugs while pregnant behind my back. (Opiates, weed, etc) I stayed by her side when I shouldn't have. And even after all that she still left me and shacked up with some p.o.s within five days while we were still married. Even got knocked up again by that same p.o.s. before we divorced. We were together the majority of ten years, so naturally I do still miss her. I can remember the first time I ever saw her, and the last time when she was waving bye to me from the back of a taxi. Bottom line: I thought I knew pain and depression when I was 23, I didn't know shit. Still love this song and J.E.W.

When I edited the comment, it literally said posted 23 minutes ago. Starting to remind me of that Jim Carrey movie...

There is a girl whom I love deeply, she is 23 years old. When we broke up, I was 23 and we've been on and off for four years. After we broke up, we were just like friends, but also some kind of different. We were closer than friends. In May 2018, we had a big fight before we got back together because she was fall in love with another guy. I can't forgive her, but I can't help loving her.

"I won't always love what I'll never have; I won't always live in my regrets" - best lines ever.

agree with that as the time cannot go back 10 years

So glad someone put this

Loved this song dearly at 22 turning 23. Here I am 32, reminiscing.... always will be a dear song of mine.

Still enjoying this song but have found new favorite lyrics over the years... "...I won't always love the things I'll never have, I won't always live with my regrets..."

Quite powerful for me.

Always & forever

I turned 23 6 days ago. This will be a fun chapter song for me.

2019 and this song never meant more to me

It's nice that Jimmy Eat World wrote a song about Michael Jordan

2019 someone?

Every year

I always come back to this album

I need to come back every once in a while to remind myself im a human.

Yeah buddy!

Interesting to think that this video was only posted a few years after the actual album came out.

Fixing to turn 23 in Jan.2019 , I failed pursing my first dream but I'm going for it again, this is some real advice y'all are leaving in the comment section, blessings and thanks!

When my ex fiancée left me, this was the first song that played as I left from her house bawling my eyes out. This is my first time listening since, and it’s a bittersweet feeling.

I turn 23 this week, so needless to say this song was on my mind

stimmt, richtig geil :)

I kill dem

.... I'm turning 23 today.
I've never been more confused in my whole life.
... but it'll be fine.
....

Enjoy it. Your 20s are a magical experience. You will one day find yourself at 33 reliving your past, visiting youtube videos like this one to tell some young 20 something to enjoy their youth. My only advice is to try to not drink a lot. It's easy to do, but be mindful of your consumption. It's a depressant and can do more harm than good. Take care.

It Is many years, but that the most beautiful memory i have. Happiness , love and hope.
No one else have me like you do..

Who came from lil lotus

geil indeed

I've always loved this song, always will.

This song made me cry through so many ups and downs and I remember when I lived in Madison near West high school
when you filmed the video for “Work.” I was in college but I lived just down the street.

I remember hearing this for the first time when Futures was released. I'm pretty sure I cried and that's a very rare thing that happens to me. The lyrics just hit me so hard. I spent so many years fucking around and wasted so many good things that I can never get back. I know it sounds so cliche, but this song literally did change my life. "You'll sit alone forever if you wait for the right time, what are you hoping for?" This was such a wake up call for me and many years later I'm the happiest I've ever been and no longer take things for granted. This is my favorite song of all time and always will be.

I won't always love these selfish things.. 😭

I got married at 23, I was able to see them perform live last fall and cried when they played this song. 23 was a special year.

What a song. Goosebumps when I hear it. I will always love this awesome song.

scam ad! amazon

i remember listening to this at age 15 like wow the thought of being 23 seems so far away

but here i am today, 23 years old listening to the same song

I lived this band so much. Highly underrated.

I love and lived this band, too.

I've had a bad day..
this song came to mind..
damn - I haven't played J.E.W. since high school back in 2009.
