Too Good At Goodbyes
Mastering Farewells: Navigating Love's Bittersweet Goodbyes with Sofia Karlberg
Lyrics
You must think that I'm stupid
You might perceive me as unintelligent.
You must think that I’m a fool
You might believe that I am foolish.
You must think that I'm new to this
You may think I lack experience in this matter.
But I have seen this all before
Despite your assumptions, I've encountered situations like this before.
I'm never gonna let you close to me
I won't allow you to get emotionally close to me.
Even though you mean the most to me
Even though you are significant to me.
’Cause every time I open up, it hurts
Revealing my emotions is painful because each time I do, I get hurt.
I'm never gonna get too close to you
I won't become too emotionally attached to you.
Even when I mean the most to you
Even when I hold great importance for you.
In case you go and leave me in the dirt
Fearing you might abandon me.
And every time you hurt me
Every instance you cause me pain.
The less that I cry
My emotional response diminishes.
And every time you leave me
Each time you depart.
The quicker these tears dry
My tears dry more quickly.
And every time you walk out
Whenever you leave.
The less I love you
My love for you diminishes.
Baby, we don't stand a chance
We face a slim chance of sustaining our relationship.
It's sad but it's true
It's a sorrowful reality.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I excel at handling goodbyes.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I am adept at saying goodbye.
I know you're thinkin’ I’m heartless
I understand you may perceive me as heartless.
Oh, I know you're thinkin’ I'm cold
You may think I am emotionally distant.
I'm just protectin' my innocence
I'm safeguarding my purity.
I’m just protectin' my soul
I'm protecting my soul.
I'm never gonna let you close to me
Preventing emotional closeness.
Even though you mean the most to me
Even though you hold great significance for me.
'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
Opening up is painful.
So I'm never gonna get too close to you
I won't let myself become too emotionally attached to you.
Even when I mean the most to you
Even when I mean a lot to you.
In case you go and leave me in the dirt
Concerned you might abandon me.
And every time you hurt me
Each time you cause me pain.
The less that I cry
My emotional response diminishes.
And every time you leave me
Each time you depart.
The quicker these tears dry
My tears dry more quickly.
And every time you walk out
Whenever you leave.
The less I love you
My love for you diminishes.
Baby, we don't stand a chance
We face a slim chance of sustaining our relationship.
It's sad but it's true
It's a sorrowful reality.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I excel at handling goodbyes.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I am adept at saying goodbye.
No way that you'll see me cry
I won't let you witness my tears.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I am skilled at saying goodbye.
I'm way too good at goodbyes
I am adept at saying goodbye.
