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 just like an actress, up on the stage I can't believe, what I'm hearing myself say And a 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 word shatter? I just want to 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
