Sometimes we fall
We can't see at all
We look for truth
Seek absolutes
But you think you're going to save me now? (You got it wrong)
You're gonna show me how (For too long)
Take a piece of me (There's not a way)
Because I don't want to live your way
It's your life it's up to you [3x]
There's always someone telling you what to do
I've got to try
My life is mine
Somewhere inside
That beacon shines
Still bright enough to save me now (You got it wrong)
Show me how (For too long)
Take a piece of me (There's not a way)
Because I won't stand to live your way
Actions wield the fortunes inside
Find a source of light which you can follow
Somebody else assigns a value of their own
Who can alter the passion inside
Create a sonic trail for my departure
Nobody else decides the course we find alone

Good Riddance, spesso abbreviato in GR, è stata una band punk rock proveniente da Santa Cruz, California. Attiva dal 1989 al 2007, ha pubblicato sette album in studio per l'etichetta Fat Wreck Chords, con l'ultimo lavoro che documenta il loro concerto di addio del 2007. Guidati dal cantante Russ Rankin, la formazione storica comprendeva il chitarrista Luke Pabich, il bassista Chuck Platt e il batterista Sean "SC" Sellers. Il loro sound, influenzato dalla scena hardcore punk, si caratterizzava per l'unione di velocità punk con melodie orecchiabili. I testi spaziavano da proteste politiche e analisi critiche della società americana a lotte personali e alienazione. Tra i brani più rappresentativi: "The Last Time", "My Friends Over You", "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)", "I Don't Wanna Be Here".
