GOOD AT GOODBYE

I’m pretty good at saying “I’m fine,”

Pretty good at wasting my time.

Pretty good at leaving first

Before somebody gets the chance to hurt.

You know I hate being alone,

Still I never pick up the phone.

I tell myself I’m better off,

Then I miss you when the night gets dark.

Maybe I’m the problem,

Maybe that’s alright.

I keep running from the feeling,

Then I miss it every night.

I’m good at goodbye,

I’m good at leaving.

I’m good at telling everybody

I don’t need a reason.

I’m good at “I’m fine,”

Good at pretending.

But every time I walk away,

I end up back where we began.

I’m good at goodbye,

Just not good at ending.

I’ve got a head full of things I never said,

A couple bad habits I haven’t fixed yet.

You say I’m hard to love, maybe you’re right,

But you still call me when you can’t sleep at night.

And I hate that I know your voice

Before I even see your name.

You could say one word and suddenly

I’m right back in that place.

Maybe I’m the problem,

Maybe you are too.

We keep saying we should leave,

Then finding reasons not to.

I’m good at goodbye,

I’m good at leaving.

I’m good at telling everybody

I don’t need a reason.

I’m good at “I’m fine,”

Good at pretending.

But every time I walk away,

I end up back where we began.

I’m good at goodbye,

Just not good at ending.

I don’t wanna be the guy

Who needs somebody just to feel alive.

But when I’m honest with myself,

I don’t want anybody else tonight.

So maybe I’ll call,

Maybe you’ll answer.

Maybe we’ll make

The same mistake after.

I’m good at goodbye,

I’m good at leaving.

I’m good at telling everybody

I don’t need a reason.

I’m good at “I’m fine,”

Good at pretending.

But every time I walk away,

I end up back where we began.

I’m good at goodbye,

Just not good at ending.

Yeah, I’m good at goodbye…

Just not good at ending.
