What Hurts the Most – Rascal Flatts
Edward's P.O.V.
I've always hated bein' alone. I can't believe that you would do this to me.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me.
Cryin' is a sign of weakness to me. I can't stand to show what bothers me.
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out.
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while even though
We could've shared the longevity of our souls combining. Your words drove a stake through my heart, my deafened ears couldn't comprehend what you said.
Goin' on with you gone still upsets me.
Sometimes, I just plaster a smile on my face and grin n' bear it.
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me.
I was so close to saying 'I love you', and you just had to reject my being completely.
What hurts the most
was being so close
and havin' so much to say
and watchin' you walk away.
What did you even know about me? Why did you ever go out with me if you would leave me months after you moved in with me?
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do.
Every day is torture without you here in my arms. Why would you cause me this much pain?
It's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you everywhere I go
but I'm doin' it.
Al won't even talk to me anymore. I know he'd rather be with you and Envy than with me.
It's had to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
You've drivin' almost to the point where I would debate suicide.
Still harder getting' up, getting' dress, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over.
You're making me live through extraordinary measures to keep my cool around others. I want to tell you what I wanted to say, but never did. I was scared of what you would say.
I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken.
I was never antisocial until after you left me. You created something like a chronic disease that won't go away.
What hurts the most
Is bein' so close
And havin' so much to say
(Much to say)
And watchin' you walk away.
You would think that I would have liberty in what I do, or that I would be more vocal than I am not, but I don't. I'm dormant most of the time, staying quiet since you left.
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do, oh
Oh yeah
Just thinking of you hurts worse than my automail linking to my nerves again. Sayin' 'I love you' was all I had to do to keep you with me, than you never really loved me. Just think: You never gave me the time of day three months after you moved in with me.
What hurts the most
What being so close
And havin' so much to say
(To say)
And watchin' you walk away.
And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do.
Quite different if you ask me. I was always here, but I never knew you.
Not seein' that lovin' you
That's what I was trying to do, ooo.
