Say Goodbye

If I seem distant
Baby I am
Words are like scissors
In your hands
And there's no script to follow
So I just close my eyes

That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

I feel like just like an actress
Up on the stage
I can't believe
What I'm hearing myself say
And the porch light is my spotlight
So I play along with this lie

That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

Did you ever love me?
Does it even matter?
Did you even notice
The whole world shatter?

I just wanna hold you
and tell you that I'm sorry
But I just keep it all inside

That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye

My heart feels like a circus
it's too much to take in
It's hard to lose a love
But you were my best friend
So  I walk this highwire
Alone tonight

That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye
That way it won't hurt so much
When we say goodbye
