Lyrics

There's no going back to that
I'm so numb, can't even react
Didn't say it's not okay
But we aren't feeling the same way
I ain't telling you a secret
I ain't telling you goodbye
It's the last thing on my mind
Still, you won't let things unwind
Spinning tight around your head
Can't you hear a word I said?
I ain't telling you a secret
I ain't telling you goodbye
When you call, it's just not fair
It's the last thing you should share
If I can't deal, I'll let you know
Still, I wish you'd let it go
I ain't telling you a secret
I ain't telling you goodbye
I'm telling you, for one last time
It's not just you, the problem is mine to hide
I waited as long as I could
If you need it, sure, I would, that's fine
There's no going back to that
So numb, can't even react
Didn't say it's not okay
But we aren't dealing the same way
I ain't telling you a secret
I ain't telling you goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
I'm telling you for one last time
It's not just you, the problem is mine to hide
I waited as long as I could
If you need it, sure I would, that is fine
I'm taking away a lot of stuff
I'm telling you, it's rough, but not goodbye
Thank you
