VERSE
We’ve been together
Longer than forever
You’re my best friend
Or so I thought
VERSE
But I’ve noticed lately
We’re more like strangers
We fight to smile
And we never talk
PRE-CHORUS
I think I know what’s going on
CHORUS
But I can’t look in your eyes
And break your heart and mine
This is where I draw the line
You’ll have to say goodbye
VERSE
You used to read me
Now you don’t even see me
We come and go
Like passing ships
VERSE
We try to hide it
That sound of silence
But it’s all around
And deafening
PRE-CHORUS
It’s a place I never thought we’d ever be
CHORUS
But I can’t look in your eyes
And break your heart and mine
This is where I draw the line
You’ll have to say goodbye
BRIDGE
I’m not strong enough to give up on our love
Even though we both know that’s what we want
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
No I won’t look in your eyes
And break your heart and mine
This is where I draw the line
You’ll have to say goodbye
TAG
This is where I draw the line
You’ll have to say goodbye
You’ll have to say goodbye
