Gracie performed this song for the first time in Milan, Italy during the European leg of her “The Secret of Us” tour. She said the demo version is called “Cold Goodbyes”.

Lyrics from Live Performance

[Verse 1]

What a road I've taken, I'm not always kind

Wrote a note addressed to no one, left for somebody to find

I wish we tried to hold on, should've kept an open line

I'm imagining again, it's past my bedtime

[Chorus]

I know better than cold goodbyes

Mm

I still make believe them sometimes

Oh

[Verse 2]

Look at all these people, do I have to play tonight?

Used to know what landed well for me, but now it's hard to find

In the hay I am the needle, thеre's a hundred blinking eyеs

Proving cities are for lonely deer in headlights

[Chorus]

I come up for air too few times

Ohh

I can't get it right, can't hide

Oh

[Verse 3]

You don't mean to bother, but there's something on my face

It's the subtlest expression, I should change it just in case

The questioning starts coming, and half hollowed out your faith

Now the aliens are asking if I'm okay

[Chorus]

And I'm far out, I'm by the shoreline

I

I, I live there in my spare time

Mm

And I know better than cold goodbyes

Ah

I still make believe them sometimes
