Sunday Best
Heartache's Redemption: Sunday Best Unveils Broken Love
Lyrics
Well, I pulled up
Arrived at the Church of Christ.
To that church of Christ
Setting the scene at a religious place.
With a broken heart
Feeling emotionally wounded.
And bloodshot eyes
Eyes showing signs of fatigue or distress.
Too hungover to go inside
Too hungover to attend the church service.
So, I hung my head and drove on by
Choosing to avoid the church, driving past.
And I don't feel like Hallelujah
Expressing a lack of joy or praise.
With this aching in my chest
Feeling pain or heaviness in the chest.
So here I sit out on some backroad paper sack and Marlboro reds
Sitting alone with a paper sack and cigarettes.
Drinking in my Sunday best
Drinking, not in a celebratory mood.
Thought I really, really knew him well
Believed to know someone well.
He was the one, far as I could tell
Considered him the right person.
But last night I caught him with somebody else
Discovered partner cheating with someone else.
And yeah, that preacher's son can go to hell
Expressing anger and disappointment.
And I don't feel like Hallelujah
Continued lack of joy or praise.
With this aching in my chest
Reiterating the chest pain.
So here I sit out on some backroad paper sack and Marlboro reds
Remaining alone with vices on a backroad.
Drinking in my Sunday best
Drinking, not in a celebratory mood.
And yeah, I know that I'll get over him in time
Acknowledging eventual healing but not now.
But right now forgiveness ain't something I can find
Finding forgiveness difficult at the moment.
And I don't feel like Hallelujah
Continued lack of joy or praise.
With this aching in my chest
Reiterating the chest pain.
So here I sit out on some backroad paper sack and Marlboro reds
Remaining alone with vices on a backroad.
Drinking, and I'm a mess
Drinking, acknowledging being a mess.
Yeah, I'm drinking in my Sunday best
Drinking, not in a celebratory mood.
When I pulled up to that church of Christ
Reflecting back on the Church of Christ.
Oh, I'm gonna be here just drinking
Deciding to stay and drink instead of attending.
You're somethin' silly
Mentioning a lighthearted or silly feeling.
Hell, Jesus turned water to wine
Referencing Jesus's miracle of turning water into wine.
Mm, pour me another one, hahaha
Requesting another drink in a lighthearted manner.
Whoo, I'm drunk
Expressing intoxication.
