Still Hurt Anyway

Sitting back all alone on this roller coaster you chose to put me on

My hands are getting tired from trying to reach you on your telephone

I tried to say it doesn't hurt, but those words they only make it worse

Darling, how are we gon' make this work?

We can't keep going on like this now

I tried going through the fires and flames, dear

Kicking back and cracking a cold beer

Didn't hurt that's what I tried to say

But it still hurt anyway

I put water on my face

Tried to say that you were a mistake

Told my friends that our love was all fake

But it still hurt anyway

Yeah, it still hurt anyway

And now that you walked away

I had time to look at my mistakes

And I'd do whatever it takes

To get this sad look washed up off my face

I don't know where to go

This indirection isn't guiding me through all my highs and lows

How am I supposed to know, this wasn't gonna work just let it go

I tried going through the fires and flames, dear

Kicking back and cracking a cold beer

Didn't hurt that's what I tried to say

But it still hurt anyway

I put water on my face

Tried to say that you were a mistake

Told my friends that our love was all fake

But it still hurt anyway

Yeah, it still hurt anyway

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh
