Say goodbye Lose your friends Make them go Don't need them around Cause it's time Lose your friends Make them go Was never supposed to be like this They were too weak too prone to break They're needs too deep their skin too thin By now you took what was to take Tear it apart and start again So go on If this will make you happier It got you this far Do what you have to You've wasted Every moment Of your Saturdays And your Sunday You're wasted from the boredom Was never supposed to be like this Like your father said Just do what was done unto you Always in your father's steps You'll do what was done unto you It won't be hard to start again So go on If this will make you happier It got you this far Do what you have to And you're gone now ( You've know this would come and you've left me alone ) And did it make you happier? ( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously ) Was it that hard? ( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own ) Did what you had to ( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out ) One more inch You son of a bitch Been a waste of my time Always Now you're half awake You bend till you break And make the same mistakes Always So go on if this will make you happier It got you this far Do what you have to And you're gone now ( You've know this would come and you've left me alone ) And did it make you happier? ( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously ) Was it that hard? ( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own ) Did what you had to ( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out )
This song helped me deal with an apathetic work group I thought I was part of, then they turned on me and completely ignored me. It was rough realizing I was never friends with these people I’d known for years, but the lyrics got me through it all. Guster has been a Godsend for me. ❤️
I know the feeling man, its not pleasant at all. Only difference in my situation was that it was a group of church people of all things to be involved in lol. They only acknowledged my presence when I was helping out and giving my time to things they needed done, yet I was excluded and not told of fun plans they routinely made. I hope I find a circle of pure-hearted, welcoming and engaging friends this new year and I wish the same for you!
I understand you about people at work and in my life and how they turn away so easily although some have said ad infinitum they would be there for me through the thick and thin........ Nope but music, such as this, helps the soul heal.
2:16 fav part of the song Well you've known this would come When you left me alone And you're lost and you're gone Don't take it so seriously Go on -- get going I'm fine on my own It got me this far Finally got it figured out
Though this song hits the heart right on the spot. I did leave my friends at least 17 times by now. 17 different groups. 17 different collection of lives and people. But I found it that the more I let go, the closer I get to finding the ones like me. And the friends I have now...I wouldn't trade them for the world~
I know how you feel. I lost friends as well. Friends didn't wanna be friends with me no more, I didn't wanna be friends with some people as well, and others, I feel like I am drifting apart with them. This song is really deep
Luffy Monkey yes the song is really deep. But i am glad that the singer sang it and the writers composed it. Their music made me understand that even though I felt these feelings, they weren't mine alone. They are ours. And so I hope, that all of us can have our happy endings~ like the song says~ may we get "happier". Best of luck Luffy Monkey. c:
You guys are missing the point of this song... Guster isn't encouraging you to get rid of your friends, quite the opposite. Most of the song is satirical/sarcastic, "they were too weak, too prone to break, their needs too deep, their skin too thin," is commenting on how the person who broke it off had too high of expectations of their friends. "One more inch, you son of a bitch. Been a'wastin' my time, always. Now you're half awake, you bend til you break, you make the same mistakes- always," is a comment that the person breaking off from their friends has a habit of doing this and suggests some form of hypocrisy might be at play here. It's healthy to weed toxic people out of our lives. But when it gets to a point where we are having too high of expectations, being overly-critical and just consistently cutting people out left and right... that's not healthy. We as humans are meant to form deep meaningful connections, otherwise what's the point? Anyways, hope this helps... much luck to you all!
@@CALIGRL888 In my case, they were toxic people in my life and bullied me without me knowing. I couldn't wear the same color they were wearing or if I liked someone, they'd go and like them suddenly. I'd be encouraged to go over their house when I'd have exams the next day and because I couldn't say no, they took advntage of that. You'd promised to come over and so I'd fail my exams. I'd loan money and give my lunches in the sake of friendship. I'd have to be the taxi all the time and because I couldn't say no, they pushed the guilt onto me and made me feel like I was the wrong one. This went on for so long. I thought they were my friends. I thought so. But as I grew older, I just realized it plain and simple, I sucked at picking the right people for me. I picked people because they seemed nice enough, but then I'd basically be a pushover to their whims. This is what I thought friendship was for a really long time. Transactions and pleasing all the time. I realized, that no, there are cool people who have the same interests in you, that care about your feelings, that don't push you to do or say things you don't want. I had to weed out these people even though I loved them and supported them with all my heart. My younger self was stupid. As my older self, I'm glad I still met them though, because I learned important life lessons about choosing "me" and giving myself voice. I didn't know. I was always surrounded by people who didn't support this. But when college came, new people came and made me better. And I'm better. So sometimes you do need to leave. You do need to end the relationship. I was weakwilled before and wishy washy. That was what my friends had also made me. And now the friends I have, they encourage me to be strong, to say no, and be much more. Each to their own path. But don't stay in a relationship if they abuse you, of because you've been friends forever, or because of this and that. When you start picking you, instead of pleasing others, the right people will come along and stan by your side and empower you.
I knew a person who thought exactly this way. I loved him. He followed this road, and he never varied from this course, until finally he killed himself.
As you get older and maturing, Your friends start disappearing. dicking around and acting stupid with stupid people gets tiresome and old. Friends don’t last forever but family and partners do. Only the truest, and best friends transit to family.
This is the most underrated song ever written.
Easily one of the greatest of all time. The harmonies, falsettos, the rounds (singing over each other) it’s got all of my favorite Guster hallmarks.
I love this song!
Say goodbye
Lose your friends
Make them go
Don't need them around
Cause it's time
Lose your friends
Make them go
Was never supposed to be like this
They were too weak too prone to break
They're needs too deep their skin too thin
By now you took what was to take
Tear it apart and start again
So go on
If this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to
You've wasted
Every moment
Of your Saturdays
And your Sunday
You're wasted from the boredom
Was never supposed to be like this
Like your father said
Just do what was done unto you
Always in your father's steps
You'll do what was done unto you
It won't be hard to start again
So go on
If this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to
And you're gone now
( You've know this would come and you've left me alone )
And did it make you happier?
( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously )
Was it that hard?
( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own )
Did what you had to
( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out )
One more inch
You son of a bitch
Been a waste of my time
Always
Now you're half awake
You bend till you break
And make the same mistakes
Always
So go on if this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to
And you're gone now
( You've know this would come and you've left me alone )
And did it make you happier?
( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously )
Was it that hard?
( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own )
Did what you had to
( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out )
'Lost and Gone Forever' is desert island album choice, and this song is one of the best ones to belt out alone ever!
A couple years ago at On The Ocean they did the entire album and it was just pure awesome sauce
That’s incredible…totally jealous here! 😂
Best band to see in concert
Can confirm
This song helped me deal with an apathetic work group I thought I was part of, then they turned on me and completely ignored me. It was rough realizing I was never friends with these people I’d known for years, but the lyrics got me through it all. Guster has been a Godsend for me. ❤️

A powerful song... Hope you're doing better! Music has helped heal me and lift me up in many situations. Love these guys!

This song is healing me.
Yourrrrr myyyyyy satellite
2:16 fav part of the song
Well you've known this would come
When you left me alone
And you're lost and you're gone
Don't take it so seriously
Go on -- get going
I'm fine on my own
It got me this far
Finally got it figured out
same. and i love how those vocals are being sung by one singer in the chorus and different vocals are being sung by the other singer in the chorus
This is my 16th favorite song!
What’s your 72nd favorite song?
@Stranger_In_The_Alps Sassy Britches-Self
Was never supposed to be like this.
Underrated song
This is a wonderful song
This song is amazing. Just gold!
Saw you guys in Stamford, CT this summer and literally, it was the highlight of my summer. You guys rock!!!!!!!!!

The best music few have heard.
I knew a person who thought exactly this way. I loved him. He followed this road, and he never varied from this course, until finally he killed himself.
Neden bu kadar az kişi dinlemiş ya bayıldım bayıldımm nasıl bu kadar geç keşfederim…
Aşşırı underrated
Great great song. Guster rocks.
God I love this song
Damn the algorithm remembered what I forgot.
As you get older and maturing, Your friends start disappearing. dicking around and acting stupid with stupid people gets tiresome and old. Friends don’t last forever but family and partners do. Only the truest, and best friends transit to family.
Totally underrated
Taylor swift! IMA let you finish In a minute but guster had one of the best albums of all time! of all time!
Say goodbye. Lose your friends.
🙏🕊
I heard drew monson liked this band so I decided to have a listen
This carried my parents divorce, love Guster!!!!
Youve wasted every moment of your saturdays and sundays!

Let me join your choir class now.
💕
Imagine a softie indie version of Bouncing Souls...
