[Verse 1]
In the name of transparency
Spent thousands on therapy
Just looking for clarity
And reasons for me to get out of my bed
You made a mess of me
I lost my identity
When you went and broke up with me
I thought I would never feel normal again
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, losing you was hell
Honey, I ain't gonna lie
But then I found myself
[Chorus]
On the other side of lonely
The other side of sad
Turns out life without you
Ain't really all that bad
Thought I'd never get here
Thought I'd never make it through
But damn, it feels good
Damn, it feels good
On the other side of you, yeah
On the other side of you, yeah
[Verse 2]
Finally feel like that girl again
That I was before we met
But a little bit better than that
I'm stronger, I'm braver, I know what I'm worth
[Pre-Chorus]

I don't blame you anymore
And I don't love you anymore
[Chorus]
On the other side of lonely
The other side of sad
Turns out life without you
Ain't really all that bad
Thought I'd never get here
Thought I'd never make it through
But damn, it feels good
Damn, it feels good
On the other side of you, yeah
On the other side of you, yeah
[Bridge]
Yeah, losing you was hell
But I'm thankful for it now
Because I found myself
[Chorus]
On the other side of lonely
The other side of sad
Turns out life without you
Ain't really all that bad
Thought I'd never get here
Thought I'd never make it through
But damn, it feels good
Damn, it feels good
On the other side of you, yeah
On the other side of you
On the other side of you, yeah
On the other side of you
