The Strategy
I know it's never good to appearThat I shouldn't call her
That it should look like I'm fine like this
That I was able to forget her
Either way I know that it was their decision
And I should respect it
And I should suppress this hope
Of loving her again
If I do it all right
Maybe one day I'll make them cry
...
And it's not that I want them to suffer
It's just that I don't want them to ignore me.
That even though you're not at fault
Maybe my fears beat me
Ohhh
If I do it all right
Maybe one day they'll return and fall in love
'Return and fall in love'
Do it all without error
To see if it captivated you
So you know that I still live
And to make that call
May it show that I still exist
The strategy is not important
I just want to hear your voice
...
I don't want to keep playing
...
To those who are my friends
who decide what I do
The truth is I am drowning
...
Swallowing the words
And not saying that I miss you
And not saying that I love you
...
They've told me that you've forgotten me
And that you're no longer sad
That there's another man and that you no longer care about what you once felt for me
...
And I don't lose hope
And I dream you denied
...
And that you use the same strategy
That I used when you left
...
Do it all without error
To see if it captivated you
And look for the perfect excuse
So that you know that I still live
And to make that call
That shows I still exist
The strategy isn't important
I just want to hear your boice
I don't want to keep playing
...
To those who are my friends
Who decide what I do
The truth is I am drowning
...
Swallowing my words
And not saying that I miss you
And not saying that I love you...
