"Take A Bow" lyrics

I cannot be your friend
Don't you think we have enough of them?
But take it as a compliment
And pack your things
I wish we could skip this part
The final act and broken hearts
Regret that we once even started
And the loss of hope

And remember all the good times
Take note of all the bad and say we tried
At least we tried
Fast forward to the next phase
Erase the petty and give praise
Where praise is due
I'm praising you
Take a bow
Take a bow

You surely left a mark
And I'll never dare dive in as hard
I lost my head, my mind, my heart
On the way down
And so I cannot be your friend
I'm scared I'll wanna try again
Let's honour us and not pretend
We know how that would end

And remember all the good times
Take note of all the bad and say we tried
At least we tried
Fast forward to the next phase
Erase the petty and give praise
Where praise is due
I'm praising you
Take a bow
Take a bow

Take a bow
Take a bow
