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 I'm forgiven, but I don't know how I know
I don't trust my inner feelings, inner 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 sing, I know what that's about
I tried to love you my way but I couldn't 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 shop, but that don't make it junk
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
That don't make it junk
That don't make it junk
