Lyrics I just whipped up: "I'll skip 'hello'..."

[From_Now_On]

I'll skip "hello" and greet you with "goodbye"

 

You'll never know

Cuz I'll never say

Before you turn around

I'll walk away

 

Cuz I'm not going to set myself up to fail

And I'm not gonna give you the chance to bail

Out on me

I'm so weary

Of that

 

You don't know

That I've got these feelings locked up inside for you

And they won't show

Cuz I know what will happen if they do

 

-chorus-

No, no

Can't love you

No, no

Can't need you

No, no

Don't want you

To know

Cuz I couldn't stand to let you go

So I will leave

Before you even see me

At all

-end chorus-

 

You'll never know

Cuz I'll never let on

Before you say goodbye

I'll be far gone

 

Cuz I'm not going to set myself up for another let down

And I'm not gonna give you the chance to make a sound

And trick me

I'm so weary

Of that

 

You don't know

That I've got these dreams locked up inside of me

And they won't show

Cuz I know how the ending would be

 

(chorus)

 

You'll never know

Cuz I'll never share

Before you can even mess up

I'll pretend I don't care

 

Cuz I'm not going to set myself up to lose

And I'm not gonna give you the chance to move

Any closer

I'm so over

All of that

 

You don't know

That I've got these hopes locked up inside of myself

And they won't show

Cuz I know any more heartache could imperil my health

 

(chorus)

 

You'll never know

Cuz I'll never admit

Before you can bend me

I'll say we don't fit

 

Cuz I'm not going to set myself up to fall down

And I'm not gonna give you the chance to push me around

And hurt me

I'm so weary

Of that

 

You don't know

That I've got these longings locked away so deep inside

And they won't show

Cuz there's nowhere else to hide

 

(chorus)

 

Before you see me

I will leave

Before you can convince me

You'll stay

I'll be gone away

 

(And save us both the trouble)

 

I wave to you as you walk by

It looks like 'hello'

But it's goodbye

I hope you know that this is really good. I loved the ending... hit me with a ton of bricks. I think there are too many stanzas... one of them could be cut out to make it a shorter song I think. But some brilliant thing in there... And I agree beautiful mind.
