Best out of Me - Suzanne Santo

Baby I know I was jealous and mean

I got lost in the anger that roars over me

Like a tidal wave, rotten

Bewitched and begotten from broken things inside of me

And the words I shell out at you

The night before still scatter like shrapnel all over the floor

And I’m sweepin' and I’m dustin

And desperately bustin' my back

To get you back through my door

You can write me off honey

You can rip out our pages

You can tell all your friends how we burned in the blazes

But I swear I won’t be

A train that keeps crashin' and burnin'

The best out of me

And I see it in my family tree yes I do

All those murderous words that’ll cut you in two

And I don’t want it in me

That haunted history that bruises the fruit black and blue

You can write me off honey

You can rip out our pages

You can tell all your friends how we burned in the blazes

But I swear I won’t be

A train that keeps crashin' and burnin'

The best out of me

We took the long road

Burned out our engines with fire and passion

And best of intentions

And I know sorrow will make it’s way out in the smoke

You can write me off honey

And rip out our pages

You can tell all your friends how we burned in the blazes

But I swear I won’t be

I swear that I won’t be

A train that keeps crashin' and burnin'

The best out of me
