I fought against the bottle, but I had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn shop, but that don't make it junk
I know that im forgiven, but I dont know how I know
I don't trust my inner feelings, you know feelings come and go
How come you called me here tonight?
And how come you bother with my heart at all?
You raised me up in grace
Then you put me in a place where I must fall
Too late to mix another drink, the lights are going out
I'll just listen to the darkness and I know what that's about
I tried to love you my way but I couldnt make it hold
So I closed the book of longing and I do what i am told
How come you called me here tonight?
How come you bother with my heart at all?
You raised me up in grace
Then you put me in a place where I must fall
I fought against the bottle, but I had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk
I fought against the bottle, but I had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk
That dont make it junk
That dont make it juuunnk . . .
