 we use  to fit together, she  was so open
let  me in deep,  fed my  hope
 and the years  flew by, now we're  older and broken
what  did I do to  make this bright light  go dim
my  my,  how we've  changed
 bitter  is the fruit  of the love we've  made
good  god,  what did I say
 to make  you repeat my  sins this way
I  never pray, you own  me nothing
but  if it's judgment day leave her  and take me
she's  the innocent and  I'm the one you want
and  if it's judgment day leave her  and take me
 you use to sleep on my chest, your body so warm
 the top of your head still smelled like a newborn
 and you were salvation, I thought you could atone for me
 but I'm just the same, and you've sins of your own, I see
 my my, how we've grown
 crooked as the seed that a father sowed
 I never pray, you own me nothing
 but if it's judgment day leave her and take me
 she's the innocent and I'm the one you want
 and if it's judgment day leave her and take me
 leave her and take me
 good god, it's the family disease
 we're bent as the branch on a cottonwood tree
 I never pray, you own me nothing
 but if it's judgment day leave her and take me
 she's the innocent and I'm the one you want
 and if it's judgment day leave her and take me
leave  her and take  me
leave  her and take  me
