If I seem distant... Baby, I Am. Words are like scissors.. In your hands. And there is no script to follow... So I just close my eyes. That way it won't hurt so much When we say goodbye.
I feel just like an actress Up ot 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. (2x)
