I Liked You Best

Counting the days as the months disappear
Slip back, forget you should be here
It's too easy for me not to say
And I couldn't help but notice
That you and me are spinning way too fast to stop
Take a breath and close my eyes

And it's a simple kind of silence that falls between us now
We stared at cracking walls as the ceiling tumbled down
And I think it hurts more than I can say, so I won't try

This is your pride
I've given you nothing but time
Gone so quickly
When did you stop missing me?

Dangling legs and feet precariously avoiding your conscience
Whatever helps the year go by
And I've been thinking about all the holes in my shoes and tears in your sweater so
So what if you're not coming back?

And it's a simple kind of silence that falls between us now
We stared at cracking walls as the ceiling tumbled down
And I think it hurts more than I can say 'cause you know what you're doing

I was on your side
Maybe you were never fine
I'm your regret
But I liked you best

I liked you best
I liked you best
You made this mess
But I liked you best

I liked you best
I liked you best
You made this mess
But I liked you best
