Hot Milk
The Secret to Saying Goodbye
[Verse 1: Jim Shaw]
Do you remember? No, I've forgotten
'Cause I'm shedding my thoughts like they're blossom
You cut me out like I'm rottenand
Now it's lonely down here at the bottom

[Verse 2: Hannah Mee]
Blame it all on me; so silently
I fear I'll be the reaper that you always said I'd be
How could you care about me? I swear
'Cause you painted all the colours in my nightmares

[Pre-Chorus: Jim Shaw]
(You fuel the fire burn the skin from my bones)
(You fuel the fire burn the skin from my bonеs)

[Chorus: Hannah Mee, Jim Shaw]
Is there a secrеt to saying goodbye?
It just gets harder every time
You had no heart, so you stole mine
Burn like a firefly, then watch me die
Is there a secret to saying goodbye
Or is it easier to lie?

[Verse 3: Hannah Mee]
Is this forever or is it fleeting?
'Cause I can't take more of this feeling
I'm heavy inside and I'm sinking
Not sure if this heart is still beating
[Verse 4: Hannah Mee & Jim Shaw]
Take a look at me
'Cause I can't see I'll never be the person that I always hoped I be
Am I too far gone? The tide's too strong
Caught a stranger awake in my reflection

[Chorus: Hannah Mee, Jim Shaw]
Is there a secret to saying goodbye?
It just gets harder every time
You had no heart, so you stole mine
Burn like a firefly, then watch me die
Is there a secret to saying goodbye
Or is it easier to lie?

[Bridge: Hannah Mee]
(Is there a secret to saying goodbye?)
(You had no heart, so you stole mine)
(Is there a secret to saying goodbye?)
(You had no heart, so you stole mine)

[Chorus: Hannah Mee, Jim Shaw]
Is there a secret to saying goodbye?
It just gets harder every time
You had no heart, so you stole mine
Burn like a firefly, then watch me die
Is there a secret to saying goodbye
Or is it easier to lie?
