Punch Drunk Destiny

In a former life, in a former place
Think I knew her smile, I remember her face
Maybe that's why I'm a mess
Whenever she wears that dress

It's like a no-look right hook dropping me down
And when I stand up I'm stuck stumbling around

No, she don't know what she does to me
Yes, I confess that I'm blind
I can't deny I was born to be a martyr for love
It's just a part of my punch drunk destiny

So I take the hit, and I take the pain
But I'm not done yet, and it hits me again
Maybe I'll never know why
It's just that look in her eyes

It's like a long-lost left cross out of the blue
And when it hits me I see stars and the moon

No, she don't know what she does to me
Yes, I confess that I'm blind
I can't deny I was born to be a martyr for love
It's just a part of my punch drunk destiny

Don't put it on me (Don't put it on me)
Blame it on my punch drunk destiny (Punch drunk destiny)
No chance I'm gonna leave (No chance I'm gonna leave)
I'm just a sucker with a punch drunk destiny

It's like a door-shut uppercut taking me out
And maybe this time now I'm down for the count

No, she don't know what she does to me
Yes, I confess that I'm blind
I can't deny I was born to be a martyr for love
It's just a part of my punch drunk destiny

Oh, don't put it on me (Don't put it on me)
Blame it on my punch drunk destiny (Punch drunk destiny)
No chance I'm gonna leave (No chance I'm gonna leave)
I'm just a sucker with a punch drunk destiny
