If I knew this was goodbye,
would I have kissed you longer
or punched you in the face?
And if I knew you wouldn't cry,
would I have saved it for a rainy day
so you couldn't see my pain
I may not be perfect but at least I tried
but maybe it's not really worth it if you let me go without a fight
I don't wanna hear you say you're sorry,
baby I'll be fine don't you worry,
I can make it through this on my own
but you'll miss me when I'm gone
Thought I was jumping in the deep end
but I guess I should've known
pretty faces can be shallow
(My whole world revolves around you,
then my life goes on without you,
yeah my life goes on and on and on without you)
I don't think you ever hear me,
you only hear yourself,
your silence freaks me out
I let you be a part of my whole life,
you just let me be a part of your loneliness
Don't say you love me now
I may not be perfect but at least I tried
but maybe it's not really worth it if you let me go without a fight
I don't wanna hear you say you're sorry,
baby I'll be fine don't you worry,
I can make it through this on my own
but you'll miss me when I'm gone
Thought I was jumping in the deep end
but I guess I should've known
pretty faces can be shallow
A romance without a mystery,
I give my all and you kill the best of me
When you're done with your fantasy,
maybe you'll wake up and remember me,
and remember me
I don't wanna hear you say you're sorry,
baby I'll be fine don't you worry,
I can make it through this on my own,
I know you'll miss me when I'm gone
Thought I was jumping in the deep end
but I guess I should've known
pretty faces can be shallow
(My whole world revolves around you,
then my life goes on without you,
yeah my life goes on and on and on without you)
Could you be so shallow?
