  • At first / I could say / I could say or do / just whatever I liked
    You would / you would not / You would not answer / that's alright
    Oh / I can't believe in the morning of your silence
    You will never cut / you will never cut the threads of your reliance
    You can / you can deny / you can deny that I was anything to you
    But I know / I know in my mind / I can see the scars
    the scars I've left on you / I can't believe in the
    morning of your silence
    You will never cut / you will never cut the threads of your reliance
    When we are passed in the street
    You can try and cover it up with whatever you like
    Lipstick, mascara, that kind of thing
    You won't fool me / you won't fool anyone
    They'll take one look at you
    and they'll know the kind of person they're dealing with
    You can laugh about it / you can pretend that you weren't involved
    But you know what went on in that room that night
    You know what was said / ans you know you'll never forget
    I hate the sight of the face I have destroyed through our alliance
    I won't forget how loved I once was and how much I loved your eyes
    So the bedroom becomes a funeral parlour once again
    See the corpse of former feeling laid out stiff and white for all to see
    So / this is the end / But we'll still be good friends, won't we?
    We'll still be good friends, won't we?
    We'll still be good friends, won't we?
    Goodbye. Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
