Background
Contrary to popular belief, the song was not written about Amy's deceased sister.
On July 13, 2011, the song was previewed by MTV News, and Amy talked about the song:[2][3]
I wrote it with the guys. It was real collaborative. That was a hard one for me to write the lyrics for, because I had the chorus — it's very epic and dramatic; 'Counting the days to meet you on the other side' — but then, the verses, again, that element of fun is coming back in, you know, the band, it's grooving... so I'm like, 'How do I sing about death in a way that's sort of bitchy?' Like, it's not really possible ... it's hard to explain. But it's harder than it sounds.

Lyrics
Make me whole again Counting the days to meet you on the other side I’m not giving in, I want you back Over and over in my mind Counting the days to meet you on the other side I am so lost without my place inside your heart Counting the days to meet you on the other side Counting the days to meet you on the other side |
