Meaning of the song<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n

“Lyrically, at first glance, this feels like a straight up, bittersweet breakup song<\/b>, and in a way it is, but while we were writing it, we were also channeling a lot of different emotions and there\u2019s a second hidden, deeper meaning to every line that relates to being in a band<\/b>.”<\/i><\/p>\n

– Simple Plan –<\/center><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“It’s a break-up song that is kind of about realizing that the person you’re with or you hang out with is just not worth it anymore and it’s not working. There is also a little hidden meaning in that song about being in a band.”<\/i><\/p>\n

Song lyrics<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n


\nFarewell
\nDidn\u2019t mean to let you\u2026<\/center><\/p>\n

After all these wasted nights
\nI can\u2019t pretend that I\u2019m doing fine
\nI\u2019ve played it back a thousand times
\nBut now I see it
\nAnd I realize<\/p>\n

That the damage is done and it\u2019s obvious
\nWe can never go back to the way it was
\nWe\u2019re drifting apart and it\u2019s killing us
\nIt\u2019s killing us<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nDidn\u2019t mean to let you..<\/p>\n

Let you down
\nMess it up
\nWe both knew we couldn\u2019t last forever
\nIt\u2019s coming down
\nI\u2019ve had enough
\nI guess we crumbled under all the pressure<\/p>\n

Did my best
\nFor what it\u2019s worth
\nAnd I gave you all this heart can give so<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nI didn\u2019t mean to let you
\nDown
\nDown<\/p>\n

There was a time you\u2019d scream my name
\nIt used to be my getaway
\nNow all we do is just complain
\nMaybe I\u2019m the one to blame<\/p>\n

But the damage is done and it\u2019s obvious
\nWe can never go back to the way it was
\nWe\u2019re drifting apart and it\u2019s killing us
\nIt\u2019s killing us<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nDidn\u2019t mean to let you..<\/p>\n

Let you down
\nMess it up
\nWe both knew we couldn\u2019t last forever
\nIt\u2019s coming down
\nI\u2019ve had enough
\nI guess we crumbled under all the pressure<\/p>\n

Did my best
\nFor what it\u2019s worth
\nAnd I gave you all this heart can give so<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nI didn\u2019t mean to let you
\nDown
\nDown<\/p>\n

It\u2019s such
\nA shame
\nHow did we end up this way
\nWe can\u2019t go back
\nAnd things will never be the same
\nAll hopes faded
\nIs this what you wanted?
\nIs this what you wanted?<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nI didn\u2019t mean to let you..<\/p>\n

Let you down
\nMess it up
\nWe both knew it couldn\u2019t last forever
\nIt\u2019s coming down
\nI\u2019ve had enough
\nI guess we crumbled under all the pressure<\/p>\n

Did my best
\nFor what it\u2019s worth
\nAnd I gave you all this heart can give, so<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nDidn\u2019t mean to let you<\/p>\n

Farewell
\nDidn\u2019t mean to let you
\nDown
\nDown
\n(Farewell)<\/p>\n
