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 dealing the same way
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' 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've said?
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' you goodbye

When you call it's just not fair
It's the last thing you should share
I can't deal, I'll let you know
Still I wish you'd let it go
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' you goodbye

I'm tellin' you for one last time
It's not just you, the problem's mine to hide
I waited as long as I could
If you need it, sure I would, that's fine

Well, there's no goin' back to that
I'm so numb can't even react
Didn't say it's not okay
But we aren't dealin' the same way
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' you goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

I'm tellin' you for one last time
It's not just you, the problem's mine to hide
I waited as long as I could
If you need it, sure I would, that's fine
I'm takin' away a lot of stuff
I'm telling you it's rough but not goodbye
