Social Distortion - Another State Of Mind Lyrics

These guys did it before Green Day and the Offspring did it

and they did it without much help too.

walter forest

It's what Orange County used to be.

Me and my boyfriend at the time used to walk through Northeast Philly with this on his boombox. We were called freaks, had shit thrown at us, had friends that were assaulted by all the mullet-wearing shitheels that patrolled the neighborhood. Fuck them. Ah, the '80's.

I hate it but i get it

Well I'm in another state, another state of mind,
I wish that I could be there right next to her
This road leads to this, this one leads to that,
Her voice sends shivers down my spine.

These scars in my flesh,
I'm bruised and I'm bloodied
Only she know the pain that I've been through.
Talk to her a thousand miles away,
There's tears in her eyes.
If I make it back I'm gonna show her,
she's the one for me 
Hitch a ride on the wild side,
It's real hell on wheels.
There's gonna be a fight tonight, I know.
Another city we can't find,
Another city left buried behind.
As I picture her, the cities burn away.

These scars in my flesh,
I'm bruised and I'm bloodied
Only she know the pain that I've been through.
Talk to her a thousand miles away,
There's tears in her eyes.
If I make it back I'm gonna show her,
she's the one for me 
Hitch a ride on the wild side,
It's real hell on wheels.
There's gonna be a fight tonight, I know.
Another city we can't find,
Another city left buried behind.
As I picture her, the cities burn away.

Am out of the world!

I still love Social D! And Mike Ness! Been listening to these guys since I was 14. Im turning 25 in 9 days 😀 they've helped me out through tough times and great times. Viva Social Distortion!

I'm so in love with Mike Ness, well I love the whole band. Some of the most important songs in the whole world are by Social D.

Fucking really miss those days !!!!

A cool punk love song

There are better lyrics on "White Light, White Heat, White Noise" but for their debut album, the words to this track are great.

Anyone here from 21st Century Breakdown

Me! And didn't know the original was from SxDx lol

Im so big fan of Green Day, but didn't really knew punk genre. Now im here bcs of them. Its so fucking awesome.

@Kami Otari I mean that is alight cringe but it's not your fault. Fucking explore the genre and you'll fall in love. I'm 25 but when I was 13 I thought I loved my chemical romance and then I realized the songs I liked by them were misfits covers

I just saw him at the Fillmore in Philadelphia

Well, not bad. Punk in essence had already come and gone. Second wave had a new flurry. In UK, it was mostly hardcore, and the basis for new beginnings. However, plenty of post-punk, new wave, Industrial. Even in the late 70s. These guys started out okay, although never quite sustained the roots of punk throughout their career. Or, perhaps, just branched out and remained more of a rock group. Subdued. That is what happens when you run out of things to say/ Or were they ever truly definitive of punk? Perhaps.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_punk_bands_from_the_United_Kingdom -- More extended list.

who are you even talking to man lol i am just a stranger on youtube fucking with you. if you are this desperate to spew your all-knowing rants on the internet, why not go to reddit or something? instead of like, youtube comment to someone who jokingly said "ur gay"

Well, okay, I am not in the least concerned. Say what the hell you want. I merely made a statement, and a good statement, about this band. Then continued to explain why?

The point is, you are actually talking to someone, who knows what he is talking about, or this subject, be that punk, rock, heavy metal, or music, generally. At least, I trust, you are more enlightened, as a result. YouTube does not care, if you comment excessively, or a hundred times. That is the whole point. It is not going to break the bank? That said, my intention, is for "anyone" that may read this.

you dont know what youre talking about if you have to use wikipedia to recite punk bands..thats sad,you sgould already know what you like...besides,you included the lame sex pistols at the top of your list which speaks volumes...also you didnt include Crass or Wire or Subhumans which means youre gay...and why are you talking british punk anyways?...these guys are from the states...um ya camerons right,ur gay

Fantastic video

❤💋👅❤

I deadass bought a shirt of these guys and then just looked them up and now I regret buying it

alexis lopez*stick to drinking club soda,a solar powered vibrator and your yoko ono record and youll be fine...weird question but who buys a shirt of a band theyve never heard of b4?....you would prefer Foghat,Toto and fleetwood mac and i would also prefer you to listen to that as well..stick to what you can relate to

You are a total did with terrible taste in music . Stick to the Backdoor Boys

Dipshit not did

Alexis Lopez I already knew you were gonna say that when you started your sentence with dead ass. Now get back to listening to your post malone and migos you uncultured swine.

@DankFamous 1 "Daddy?..." " Yes son?..." "What does regret mean?"

Recorded in a tin can.

Recorded at the Casbah in Fullerton CA on Christmas eve.

The sound on this is fucking brilliant

Amazing 😍

My favourite love song!!
Love tgis guys

Punk in the eighties cant be touched by the crap out there today.

@lucas wroblewski True.

Old man.

+Pinchydalobster1 what about this crap? The Eighties are Gone https://anxiety3.bandcamp.com/album/the-demos

Phil Hole I was referring to the music I uploaded. I would not be listening to this song if I thought that it was trash. so chillax ya jagaloo also come catch my set at que Sera tonight. 9pm.

Pinchydalobster1 you got that right nothing will even come close they just kicked ass

I get chills when I listen to this song. It's amazing.

All of us live in another state of mind! Love the movie that i've just seen and punk mentality

Who else saw Mike Ness finish this song on the Another State of Mind movie?

+Yoshio Ku I did... one of the best parts of a great movie!

Hell, ya!

Shit, I saw him at City Gardens in 1989.

amygdala51 oh wow! Was he still skinny back then as opposed to the heavily-roided our Ness of later years?

I like spudguns cover

I love this song! The Green Day version is cool but nothing ever beats the Original.

ok i hate green day but one day i was looking up social d and i saw they did a cover of this and well its actually pretty fucking awesome

How can you hate Green Day yet like Social Distortion? lol

well said

Whippybox_grHD! True. Honestly, those bands have the same style considering that SD is one of the influence of Green Day, it's just that GD has a more high tech sound (and some will call them sellouts for that lol)

@Whippybox_grHD! me

i love this song what else can i say?

(((+_+))))))
