I'm so good at it --

Yeah.

You know what I'm talking about

When we exchange our silent words

Deep into the night

I know you so well, know what you're feeling

I'm playing you for sympathy

For a bleeding heart to match mine

For a listening ear, and an eye on me

I'm so manipulative, aren't I?

I'm so good at it --

So.

Why is it that you follow me down

Your world and mine aren't the same

I slip aside and lead you back above

Did you know I made those scars?

Stitched you up after cutting you down

It's love, but you'll never catch it

I'm so good at it --

Oh.

Good-byes are all they'll get from me

I'm just the wandering wind

Whispers and almost caresses

Most don't see me, most don't hear me

No one feels the weight of my eyes

I let no one near enough to hear all the

Sighs, cries, and lies I tell myself

I'm so good at it --

Ah.

It's time for me to leave again
