Hardest To Love
Unraveling Love's Echo: October Tooth's Hardest To Love
Lyrics
You try with me so many times, yeah
You have attempted to connect with me numerous times, yes
You're cryin' out behind the smiles
You are expressing sadness and distress behind the outward smiles
And I can see right through the lies
I can perceive the deception in your words
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Repeated emphasis on the realization of the lies
And what we had is dead inside, yeah
Our past relationship is lifeless internally
You're actin' like it's still alive
You are behaving as if our connection is still vibrant
And you still wanna make it right, yeah
You still desire to mend our relationship
I know
Acknowledgment of the situation
But I've been the hardest to love
I, myself, have been the most challenging to love
You're tryna let me go, yeah
You are attempting to release me
And I can see it, I can see it
Acknowledging the awareness of the effort to let go
I've been the hardest to love
I've been particularly difficult to love
It's hard to let me go, yeah
It's tough to release me
And I can feel it, I can feel it (oh, yeah)
Acknowledging the emotional difficulty in letting go
I don't feel it anymore (yeah)
No emotional connection remains
The house I bought is not a home (no)
The residence I acquired lacks the essence of a home
Together we are so alone
Despite being together, we feel isolated
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (oh, babe)
Repeated emphasis on the feeling of isolation
Don't regret the day we met (we met)
No remorse for the day we met
Don't forget that time we spent (we spent)
Remembering the time spent together
Forget that we're in different beds
Acknowledging the current physical separation
I know
Acknowledgment of the situation
'Cause I've been the hardest to love
I, myself, have been the most challenging to love
You're tryna let me go, yeah
You are attempting to release me
And I can see it, I can see it
Acknowledging the awareness of the effort to let go
I've been the hardest to love
I've been particularly difficult to love
It's hard to let me go, yeah
It's tough to release me
And I can feel it, I can feel it
Acknowledging the emotional difficulty in letting go
I can't, can't believe you want me
Expressing disbelief that you still desire me
After all the heartbreaks, after all I've done, oh-oh-oh (oh, oh, oh)
Despite past heartbreaks and mistakes
No I can't, can't believe you trust me (trust me)
Expressing surprise at the continued trust despite difficulties
After all the rough days, you still call me up (me up), oh-oh-oh
Despite rough times, you still reach out
'Cause I've been the hardest to love
I, myself, have been the most challenging to love
You're tryna let me go, (tryna let me go, oh), yeah
You are attempting to release me
And I can see it, I can see it (I can see it)
Acknowledging the awareness of the effort to let go
I've been the hardest to love (love, babe)
I've been particularly difficult to love
You're tryna let me go, yeah
You are attempting to release me
And I can feel it, I can feel it
Acknowledging the emotional difficulty in letting go
