Lyrics
My inner monologue is writing / SOS on deserted islands / And there’s no one out there to read the signs / Just distant oceans and great blue skies / But my miserable memory is making me more miserable / my mundane mind is waiting on some kind of miracle / Oh, maybe it’s for the better we both stay strangers forever / Maybe it’s for the best we pretend like we never met / forget everything that we’ve ever known / Maybe it’s for the better we both stay strangers forever / Well I built a raft out of total desperation / And I got kidnapped by a pirate nation / Now somewhere out there I ramble and roar / You wouldn’t recognize me anymore / But if I come into your periphery / please just act like you don’t see me / out here looking for a glimpse of shore / a mirage of the life that we had before.

At 33 the Menzingers are impacting me the same as Blink-182 when I was 13.
Imagine being 33 and only finding out about menzingers. Must be a gai
proper angst por the still functional adult
Yessss 34 feel this 100%
Yeah dude
It's pretty good way of putting it. The Menzingers is Blink-182 for 30 year olds.
The Menzingers are one of those bands that instantly put me in a great mood. Their lyrics are real, the music is upbeat and it just makes me feel alive.
Spot on my friend . And they have consistently wrote good music , this entire time .
It’s a nostalgia and theme that most millennial Americans can relate to hard
@@devdecker7812 Very true!
I guess. I mean this song does have a fast pace up beat energy but the lyrics and the song itself is depressing as hell.
They have that beautiful punk energy with amazing lyrics, musicianship, and talent. Will forever be one of my top bands. I love the way their music makes me feel at 35. Especially after growing up in the NY and Boston punk/hardcore scene
aging like fine wine, gentlemen. I cannot wait for this new album!
a fine wine bottles in the 00s haha
Just found em last year, now it’s my shit, they just get better and better as each album comes out
The Menzingers are way better than an overused cliche, but yeah, got you, dude.
@@Toad_Moto fuck off Toad
@@DooDooDaddyTV
I mean, he's not wrong.
Plus, fuck wine. Drink vodka.
I've listened to this song 10 times in a row now and I've come to the conclusion it's not long enough. These guys really know how to tickle my taint.
Right on
I agree.
I listened to it one day like 20 times until "I finished the housework" , hence why it was 20 not ten hahah
For real, this song does NOT feel 3 minutes long. It's like it's over as soon as it starts.
You know you've made it when you have an underwater music video
This is more true the more I think about it.
let alone an underwater 4k video
Shut your face. Yea...just shut your face.
How do I already know I'm going to listen to this album on repeat for a solid month?
Did you do it??
actually been listening so far
U already did bro is like ur food u eating everyday
Greg's voice at parts is like Roy Orbison gone (very) electric.
It had to be The Menzingers to come out with the best antidote for the depression caused by After The Party video.
IKR
Notice how, whenever the "she stranger" is in frame, the lighting gets brighter, and the colors get more vibrant, but, whenever he is in frame, the colors become more muted, and the lighting darkens and gets a colder, blue overtone.
I do now.
This is going to be the best Menzingers album yet. All three singles they’ve released are some of not only the best Menzingers songs I’ve ever heard, but just songs in general. These guys are the literal best.
There's still gonna be a slew of guys saying "This band is dead. Chamberlain Waits/On the Impossible Past is still the best" lol
ch-ris127 lol fuck em, more for us
This song saved my life .
Parts of this song give me strong The Cure vibes
THESE GUYS REALLY KNOW HOW TO PUT ON A BADASS SHOW!! SAW THEM YESTERDAY AND I'M STILL IN AWE!! LOVE LOVE THEM SOOO MUCH!!! ❤
I saw them in 2018 in Germany. It was a blast.
That's what's up
Greg Barnett you have cut me to my core. The timing of this song is insane. As soon as the chorus hit I was sobbing. I can’t believe how this song completely captures my breakup, the circumstances, and the emotions.
completely ended everything with my ex today. Quoted this song when I told her I was done.
@@andrew9868 i did the same and the couple times shes tried talking to me since i just tell her "Strangers forever". Works like a charm
Greg Barnett is simply one of the most gifted songwriters of his generation.
Love you guys so much! Especially the "screaming" Parts. Looking forward to your new album :-) Greets from Germany
:-) Greets from Sénégal (West Africa)
Life gets hard sometimes and then The Menzingers come out with a new album and things make sense again
Loving the bouncing stereo guitar effect. Menzingers and Will Yip bring the best out of each other. Can't wait for Hello Exile!
My inner monologue is writing
S.O.S on deserted islands
And there's no one out there to read the signs
Just distant oceans and great blue skies
But my miserable memory is making me more miserable
My mundane mind is waiting on some kind of miracle
Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever
Maybe it's for the best we pretend like we never met
Forget everything that we've ever known
Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Well I built a raft out of total desperation
And I got kidnapped by a pirate nation
Now somewhere out there I ramble and roar
You wouldn't recognize me anymore
But if I come into your periphery
Please just act like you don't see me
Out here looking for a glimpse of shore
A mirage of the life that we had before
Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever
Maybe it's for the best we pretend like we never met
Forget everything that we've ever known
Maybe it's for the better we both stay strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
Strangers forever
These lyrics hit right square in the ball sack
@@staygold902 like a bag of bricks brother! ☯️
My brother David Dillehey passed away from a O.D. And it’s was September 29th of 2020. I listen to this songs on that night because we knew so much about each other, but he was such a hard working fella that I didn’t mind. He did everything for everyone; and he had so much pain and sadness hidden along with his addition, but he never let it fully consume him. My families heart and soul were crushed because we had something beautiful not last long. But alas he touched all our lives and he lives on through the Indiana Organ Donation center. My mother actually got a letter from a man that revived one of his kidneys and we all were in joy. Because he still lives on, not just through that encounter; but everything he’s taught us. My brother David had so much darkness but he kept himself still. I don’t look only at his death; but his life 🖤
@@spicy_toilet_water RIP David, I'm sorry that you took your life, but words can not express how thankful your family and I are for saving someone else's
@@ryanmason74 I’m just thankful I stick to weed. But I’ve been grateful for him. His ghost makes itself known 🖤 I miss Him like hell
This screaming "maybe" makes me goosebumps!!! F...ing love The Menzingers! Greets from Austria
Wow this is a JAMMMMMMMM
Miserable memory is making me more miserable...
God... dammit...
That hit deep.
The best and most underrated rock band in the world ATM
Amen to that.
facts! this ^
Keep it up fellas! You bring me back to my youth in Omaha Styleeeee! Thank you😂❤❤❤
Just discovered this band, and wow what a fucking banger of a rock song this is jesus
This band is awesome, I love his voice. These guys always put me in a good mood.
This is one of the only bands that has the perfect balance of great songs and great videos.
You know that feeling you get when you hear a song and you're sure you've seen the band before, but you can't remember where, when, or with who? Here we are.
Brilliant song.. made the mistake of listening to the From Exile version and now picking up pieces of my heart.
The guitars!!! 😭😭😭
The lyrics are so genuine. Love you guys from Argentina 💙
Dedicated to my ex-friends.
I forgive you. Goodbye forever.
Random__itch yes!
played this shit as i was dumping my girlfriend. :D
This is the new Menzingers song I've been waiting for
Legend has it that the smashed guitars ghost still parties near that rock for all eternity xD bravo btw guys!
This song has just hit me like a ton of bricks 😪😪😪
It’s intense how good this song is production and all!
You have easily become one of my favourite bands after I have stumbled upon by accident about a year ago
Needed music to relate with in my late 20's and this is fitting perfectly!
I am a simple man. I see a Menzingers Video, I click and like.
Annnnnd new favorite menzingers song lol thanks guys.
I don't really watch music videos anymore but I will for The Menzingers.
I dig this. Still Menzingers with a bit of growth or change..its written so well..I've loved every album for different reasons. Good is good even if it's a tad different!
You guys are hands down the best in the biz. The writing is so good.
Hadn’t listened to this one in a minute and it popped up in a playlist at the perfect time. Thanks menzos.
First song I've ever heard of these guys, I'm in love
Check out Chamberlain Waits, great album.
@@ILVeNoFx listening to it rn, it's very good indeed. Thanks a lot 👍
Jesus, these lyrics hit in the fuggin’ heart...
Man, the new songs sound great! I can't wait for the album.
2000 trees festival add brought me.... But god if i haven't listened to this 200 times now
Not sure how you continually put out great music. Thanks for being awesome!
Another great song!! Can’t wait to see y’all in a couple months! 😁🤘
Seeing them tomorrow (11/9) in SF, can't wait to hear this song live!
New album you say? More like new hitbox from Menzingers.
They just keep knocking them outta the park, love the old greaser vibe the songs have with keeping them super melodic, or as like to call them ..”head bobbers”
This song is all of the feels. The lyrics hit me. 💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜❤️
Just now hearing of these guys, hooked! Great song
Damn. This is a beautifully shot video. The colors. The composition.
After the party was the anthem of my ex and I, now this is the post relationship anthem... fuck I need to see you guys live.
These guys have to be playing this live
This and freaking me out back to back could be the whole show
Favorite song 🤘🏻👽
The Menzingers never disappoint.
Now that I've watched this video damn near 100 times, I can say that there is no better band at matching the feel of the song with a music video
Here for the record. 🙌 Floored by this album. 💯
The Menzingers in October exactly what the doctor ordered, сan’t wait to new album
I got into you guys earlier this year, just stumbled across you by accident and I can't believe I hadn't really paid attention to you sooner. I'm in my early 40's but I still very much relate to your music. It reminds me of my past and songs like this hit home with me due to a recent life changing event. Just solid relatable lyrics all around.
Always perfect. Thanks Menzingers
This is even better than the first 2 singles which were both completely awesome
Can't believe I found this band 5 years ago via a you'tube reccomend lol ta very much ♥️
All they ever do is create consistently amazing and perfect music that I can listen to on loop. Always a great reflection of progress without compromise and beautiful mood enducing themes that are relatable. Looking forward to another perfectly paced album with suprises great guitar work and passion. And that's just coming off of this single. I swear it's been a good year for rock. All of my favourite bands are lulling out gems whilst the world goes into disarray.
What other rock bands have you enjoyed listening to this year?
@@greekboy021 killswitch engage, Blink 182, @ many others
Even more excited now for the album
After the party took a long time to grow on me but I have revisited it and I get it now.
That music video was fantastic! Great work guys! Thanks for the inspiration, I always wanna write music after listening to you guys. If all the tracks on this record are half as good as the singles you've released, then this may be my favorite record of yours.
I wish my band was 10% as good as this band...smh Love these guys!
Joey Woodpieces you guys suck that much? 10% is pretty low
Don't ever change, looking forward to the new album!
Greg can always make me happy. Secret crush for sure.
This is totally my new best song!
One of my favourites
Can't wait to see you on Boston!
These band and their music is so spesial for me ❤️
Knew this was gunna be a great song before I even heard it hahaha
Your records just get better and better with every release. It's quite remarkable really.
Wow this album could easily be their best yet !!!! Album of the Year is looking very likely after this
Out here lookung fir a glimps of shaun.
it's really quiet laughable at this point just how good they are at creating songs
This band is so good
This record is just seeming more and more amazing by every song they release. On a side note, I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this music video because its so well made. As an aspiring filmmaker, I just love the color palettes, cinematography, and the camera movements and pans. It's actually a video that's ok with staying on an image for more than 2 seconds without a bunch of annoying quick edits, and that is so commendable. Bravo!
Thank you dude!
Freaking excited for all the new music!
New favorite song. Chills. Ghostly chills. Hello Exile come faster!
Definitely my favorite track of the three
“But if I come into your periphery, please just act like you don’t see me” hits Amman, cause you know doing that yourself sucks and to know that’s what they are doing as well just, goddamit
Great Album Guys... CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU PERFORME LIVE AT TECHNIKUM MUNICH 1/31/20...😘 🌹 Love Marc from Germany... ❤️🎸... PS. And thanks for the Amazing Support Bands opening for you...
I love this guys
Holy shit. The cinematography is amazing!
Amazing song.
Yesss this single is def the best!
Holly shit i was like it would be cool if they fell in the water with instruments the menzingers never fail to make good stuff!
As usual, perfection!
You guys just keep getting better and better. Thank you
Like a fine wine?
My boy Toms songs are always overlooked for singles lol
Yeah, he didnt even get one this time, what the hell.
Nice work,Thumbs up from ENGLAND 👍👍👍👍👍
Another amazing tune
I am so excited for this album. Well done guys 🖤 much love
Outstanding
