There is no easy way to break somebody's heart
When you know what you're gonna say will leave a mark
But I've tried and I've tried and I've tried
To no end
This is the moment that you smile before you cry
Feels like I'm aiming for your heart, ready to fire
Oh, I wish it could be different, wish it could be different
But it'll only hurt you more
If I say that things can change
I'd be leading you astray, yeah, yeah
The stars in the sky are all burned out
Nothing to guide us back home now
These are the words I've kept inside
Now this is the sound of goodbye
Lost in the darkness, can't turn back
Everything starts to fade to black
How can the silence seem so loud
And all you can hear is the sound of goodbye
I know I said that I would love you 'til I die
That was then, and this is now, that ain't no lie
But I can't keep on faking
I'm constantly making you wait
I don't wanna fight with you, but I don't wanna fight for you
'Cause things just don't feel the same
Oh, I wish it could be different, wish it could be different
But it'll only hurt you more
If I say that things can change
I'd be leading you astray, yeah, yeah
The stars in the sky are all burned out
Nothing to guide us back home now
These are the words I've kept inside
Now this is the sound of goodbye
Lost in the darkness, can't turn back
Everything starts to fade to black
How can the silence seem so loud
And all you can hear is the sound of goodbye
Of goodbye
These words fall out my mouth
And now nothing feels the same, hey
The stars in the sky are all burned out
Nothing to guide us back home now
These are the words I've kept inside
Now this is the sound of goodbye
Lost in the darkness, can't turn back
Everything starts to fade to black
How can the silence seem so loud
And all you can hear is the sound of goodbye
