Cauterize - If You Go Lyrics

It's kinda sad that I have learned to deal with things like this
Being strong means being heartless

Tell me, how do the scars feel after the wounds heal?
Did it burn when they cauterized?
Did it show that you were hiding the hurt inside?
Do your eyes still shine as bright as they did
The days when you were at your best?

Now that you're all alone and feeling sorry for yourself
Did it make sense to lie to me and deceive me like you did?
If you run away from me, I'm not running after you 'cause I'm so tired
If you turn away from this don't look back 'cause I'll be gone

If you go then I'll forget you when you're gone I won't miss you
I'm sorry that's just the way I've learned to deal with a broken heart
If you go then I'll forget you when you're gone I won't miss you
I'm sorry that's just the way I've learned to deal
With a broken heart and broken promises

It's been a long time since I've seen you and longer since we've talked
And the last thing that I said was, "I had nothing to say"
Now I'm choking on my words
All the things I didn't say that could have made it all okay
