I've Been Good

(álbum: stages - 2019)

I know it's bound to happen
Grocery store, coffee shop
I'll catch your eye when you're in line
We'll stumble through small talk
And I'll be happy for ya
When you say you're doing fine
When you ask I'll tell you I've been good
And it won't be a lie

I've been good at drinking whiskey
Hell I practice all the time
I've been good at staying busy
Staying up all night, yeah
Lord knows I've been good at doing everything
And anything to keep from getting over you
Like I know I should
I've been good at looking people in the eye
And saying I've been good

The truth is I've been hurting
But I won't ever let you know
I've just been going through the motions
And never let it show
But these days I have to be careful
And not let it go too far
'Cause when I say that I've been good
That's just how that sentence starts

'Cause I've been good at drinking whiskey
Hell I practice all the time
I've been good at staying busy
Staying up all night, yeah
Lord knows I've been good at doing everything
And anything to keep from getting over you
Like I know I should
I've been good at looking people in the eye
And saying I've been good

I've been good at drinking whiskey
Hell I practice all the time
I've been good at staying busy
Staying up all night, yeah
Lord knows I've been good at doing everything
And anything to keep from getting over you
Like I know I should
I've been good at looking people in the eye
And saying I've been good
I've been good
