hi,
that silence didn't last very long.
goodbyes should be forever,
but i guess forever's pretty short.

hi,
i'm not really sure if i want to say hello,
but you need me right now and
i love you too much to hurt you
when you're already down.

hi,
next time you leave,
please just don't come back.
because hello's getting to be
just as hard as goodbye.

hi,
next time you break my heart,
can you at least be gone
for longer than two weeks?
because i'm feeling apathetic
about the fact that i'm pathetic,
and that maybe, just maybe,
you're a little pathetic too.

hi,
next time i'm going to be
the one that says goodbye,
and i'm not going to come back.
but i'll wait till you're okay,
because i guess in the end
i'm not as good at hurting you
as you are at hurting me.

because of course the moment i stop waiting,
you waltz right back into my life.

can't say i didn't expect it.

Yes, very true. It's like that with my sister..."but i'll wait till you're okay, because i guess in the end i'm not as good at hurting you as you are at hurting me."
