When Something's Broken Lyrics - Patty Griffin

I got no defense, baby 

I got nothin' but a burned out light 

My whole life don't depend on 

Whether you forgive me tonight 

I already know the feeling 

I've walked the floor before 

I can tell when something's broken 

And I know when I ain't welcome anymore 

City lights ain't fireflies 

This hole ain't a home if you trust(?) 

I never intended to be the 

Promises I made to you

Paint is peeling down the hallway 

A Brand new lock is on the door 

I know when something's broken 

And I know when I ain't welcome anymore 

I don't care who's listenin' 

I don't care what the neighbors think 

Only time the truth gets told 

Is when it's surfaced by a drink 

Only time you heart my heart 

You run behind a door 

I know when something's broken 

And I know when I'm not welcome anymore 

I've got no defense baby 

I've got nothing but a burned out light
