| Just saw these guys live last week, AMAZING! SO GOOD! Anyways I don't think the song goes much further than the lyrics. "Alive and Well... Live to always strive" All these words like many punk bands just sayin' "Carpe Diem" Sieze the day... And I hope you all live by it! | |

| I saw them on the FAT Europe tour, I'd been waiting to see them for a while, fucking awesome! I think this song is about the scene. Or being punk. I remember before they opened the set he said "Seeing you guys I know that punk rock is definately alive and well in London!" | |
