I did my best for you
But it was not enough
Everything fell through
I wish it hadn't but

I took the high road and never looked back now
I took the high road and never looked back again

But you'll never know
What you meant to me
(this generation continues to amaze me)
And though I'll never show
The things I never meant you to see
Take me back to what we used to be
Show me the person that I used to see

I wanna see the other side
Take a step back, look at yourself now do you recognise
Yourself in what you've become
And our things are all said and done
Now its over
Now its over

I'm taking it back again
Talked to another of your friends
She said it's not the first time
I guess I'll go on without you
But I don't wanna go without you

But you'll never know
What you meant to me
(this generation continues to amaze me)
And though I'll never show
The things I never meant you to see
Take me back to what we used to be
Show me the person that I used to see

I wanna see the other side
Take a step back, look at yourself now do you recognise
Yourself in what you've become
And our things are all said and done
Now its over
Now its over

Show me the person you want to be
These false pretences don't fool me
Your lies are causing consequences
I'll call it counter-intuitive
I'm not saying it's you
Or that I was warned to
Stay away

I wanna see the other side
Take a step back, look at yourself now do you recognise
Yourself in what you've become
And our things are all said and done
Now its over
Now its over
