Coexist Lyrics by Have Mercy

Make the Best of It

2017

[Verse 1]
You're smoking cigarettes
In the back of your house
I watch the liquor spill
And drip from your mouth
You said you're holding on
To old memories
[They] keep you from moving on
To all of your dreams

[Chorus]
But it wasn't the best and it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I wanna' know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew
But it wasn't the best and it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I wanna' know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew

[Verse 2]
Cut it off, cut it off, take pieces of me
Castaway, ricochet to where you want to be
And when you feel complete
Give 'em back to me

[Chorus]
Cause it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I want to know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew
Cause it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I want to know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew

[Bridge]
Anymore, I am sure
And then I took you by the wrist
Told you that we can't coexist
Friendly banter, tonight's a blur
"Are you good?" and "How ya been?"
We do this time and time again

[Chorus]
Cause it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I want to know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew
Cause it wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst
When I feel you again I want to know if it hurts
But to tell you the truth, I'm not the person you knew
Cause it wasn't the best, cause it wasn't the worst
