Alaskan Lyrics

And in the end, you took the easy way out

So I let it go that seemed the easier route

But I don't really feel like making you feel better about it

Don't worry, I've done plenty of practicing

These days, I say goodbye more than anything

And it's days like these that remind you why

You learned how to tell such convincing lies

You just shrug it all off and say everything's fine

And when Alaskan boys bear regretful smiles

You return them all with the same flat eyes

You think you're too old for this shit anymore but you try

The other night, you tried to explain

I couldn't think what it would matter

Or why it would change things

And darling, you underestimated me

Don't worry, I've done plenty of practicing

These days, I say goodbye more than anything

And it's days like these that remind you why

You learned how to tell such convincing lies

You just shrug it all off and say everything's fine

And when Alaskan boys bear regretful smiles

You return them all with the same flat eyes

You think you're too old for this shit anymore but you try

Every time you put your clothes on

I'm so convinced it's over

And still, you keep coming around

You don't see what you're taking

Make rules so we can break 'em

And still, you keep coming around

(Don't worry, I've done plenty of practicing)

Every time you put your clothes on

I'm so convinced it's over

And still, you keep coming around

(These days, I say goodbye more than anything)

You don't see what you're taking

Make rules so we can break 'em

And still, you keep coming around
