That Don't Make It Junk

I fought against the bottle

But I had to do it drunk -

Took my diamond to the pawnshop -

But that don't make it junk

I fought against the bottle

But I had to do it drunk

Took my diamond to the pawnshop

But that don't make it junk

That don't make it junk

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 pawnshop -

But that don't make it junk

I fought against the bottle

But I had to do it drunk

Took my diamond to the pawnshop

But that don't make it junk

That don't make it junk

That don't make it junk
