Yellowcard - Awakening

Bottoms up tonight, I drink to you and I.
Yellow card has always been one of my favorite bands growing up and their lyrics have always been so meaningful and relatable. I've been going through a lot, physically and emotionally, during the end of last year to now. I still go through three things, but I've gotten a lot better to the point where I'm back to my old self. Not the stressed out one, but before all of that. I've been happy these past couple of months for the most part.
I think it's safe to say I'm ready to move on with my life. I do miss my ex, and that probably won't stop, but it's time I get back on track and head forward. Maybe one day she'll see that and try to talk to me. That'd be cool; to become friends again. It all really depends on her now. XD
I don't accurately relate to all the lyrics in this song, like I don't think of my memories of us together as bad dreams or negative. It's more of I'm just ready to move on with my life. You know?

Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening
I give this one to you an anthem full of truth
I tell you now an epic tail of what you put me through
And even though you don't deserve one of your own
A melody a song about the life that you let go
I can't believe that I still care enough to write
Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
I want this to be my awakening
Yes I miss you still and probably always will
I'm living with a busted heart that I will have until
I find the strength I know it's somewhere in my bones
To pull the curtain up again and get on with this show
At least you know that I care enough to write
Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see a different destiny
Like knowing you at all was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening
No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change
No rest for the wicked they say
Forgive me if I try to change
Bottoms up tonight I drink to you and I
'Cause with the morning comes the rest of my life
And with this empty glass I will break the past
'Cause with the morning I can open my eyes
And maybe I will see a different destiny
Like knowing you at all was only a bad dream
I want this to be my awakening
