(Both of those ^ are live, but I included both because they're just such moving performances. Yes, this is another song that really gets to me... especially given the passion of Butch's vocals. Truly spectacular song.)
Artist: Butch Walker
Song: Best Thing You Never Had
Album: Letters
Hello how you doing?
What's it like to ruin all my self esteem
Let me blow off some steam
For 5 years I've waited,
So why am I jaded to get back at you
What makes it cool
When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had
And it seems like a loss somehow
My heart got lost on the way to my head
And my brain cells are dead
And the craziness shows
Now I start to go when the green turns to red
And I should be dead
When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
While my heart got shattered like romantic roadkill
My heart is all splattered and your ego got fatter
And I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had
Like the toilet seat never got lifted
And I pissed on your confidence
When you weren't around,
How can that be?
Don't turn this around
You were the one
Who drove my a** right to the ground
When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad, and I can't like
Someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
While my heart got shattered like romantic roadkill
My heart is all splattered and your ego got fatter
And I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
You broke this down
The best thing, the best thing,
The best thing that you never had
You never had...
