Beer And Blood Stains

New Found Glory · Beer and Blood Stains

A parking lot or a proving ground
From outside you can hear the sound
The club owner stole the cash (Stole the cash)
We'd strike back, kick the ceiling down
I can still smell the beer on the floors
And see stains from the bloody noses
Such a backwards way for a good time
It was our home
Our time
How did we make it out alive?
Looking back
Was it fun or crime?
Some of the best years of our lives
Some of the best years of our lives
A dance floor or a boxing ring
Upfront, let 'em hear you scream
A backhand or your car was smashed (Car was smashed)
You couldn't say things you didn't mean
I can still smell the beer on the floors
And see stains from the bloody noses
The bathroom door barely hanging on
Never cleaned on its last hinges
If we had the time, I could tell you a thousand stories
Such a backwards way for a good time
It was our home
Our time
How did we make it out alive?
Looking back
Was it fun or crime?
Some of the best years of our lives
Our home
Our time
How did we make it out alive?
Looking back
Was it fun or crime?
Some of the best years of our lives
It's good to be alive
Burn it down
A different time, a different place, it's good to be alive
A different time, a different place, it's good to be alive
Florida!
Florida!
Florida!
Florida!
Our home
Our time
How did we make it out alive?
Looking back
Was it fun or crime?
Some of the best years of our lives
Our home
Our time
How did we make it out alive?
Looking back
Was it fun or crime?
Some of the best years of our lives
Some of the best years of our lives
Some of the best years of our lives

About Beer And Blood Stains

"Beer And Blood Stains" finds New Found Glory in a pop-minded frame, where a clear central idea and emotional directness are the real strengths. Its appeal comes from commitment to a single emotional temperature rather than from trying to impress through sheer scale. There is a welcome sense of proportion in the way the music presents itself: the hook has room to land, while the surrounding moments support it instead of competing for attention. Small changes in intensity keep the song moving and stop its main idea from becoming static, giving the performance a natural sense of flow. For listeners returning to New Found Glory, the song offers a compact example of how mood, pacing, and a recognizable point of view can meet in one place. The result is a focused piece of music that works in the moment but still has enough character to invite a return visit. The clarity of that approach is its own strength, because it lets the feeling come through without turning every moment into a dramatic demand. Even when it aims for immediacy, the track avoids feeling disposable because its atmosphere remains distinct after the final note. Its emotional center stays firmly in view throughout.
