My Best Suit
words/lyrics – Trey Yip

she woke me up one Saturday
and all she said was, I'm going away
leave me alone, I'm leaving you
I'm moving home, without you
I'm not the same ,as I once was
moving further, away from love
a canyon deep and this divide
this is no place, for me to hide
so ill escape, and take a plane
a thousand miles, and change my name
I finish this, here tonight
and throw away, a shallow life

far away from this cold place
into the arms, of saving grace
where I can go, erase my thoughts
and drink away, a broken heart
a corner table, the darkest bar
to the depths of hell, if I can go that far
I'm out of luck , its been that way
since I read out loud, Hemmingway
all things truly wicked, start like this
they fall apart, from innocence
I lost my nerve and went insane
but I'm still compelled to take the train

I don't want to die, a cowards death
would you even care, if I left
I'm not the same, I couldn't be
I'm waiting here , please wait with me
I wrote a letter , they're my last words
I hung rope, on top the world
I like the rope, around my neck
a cigarette for my last breath
its misery and lonesome blue
this is of course, is my best suit
goodbye world goodbye love
goodbye God and its been rough
