I'll rise to your gavels crash
I'll run to you anywhere
No need to take a bow
I'm gonna flatter you any way
Disturb your mind when you look at me
Restore order and leave me now
I won't make this hard on you
Lets reach this verdict my love is gone
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
The jurys out while you're running free
I'm locked up behind the bars
My way out is your loveless bond
You'll see me when I'm on the up and up
Why'd you say that I held you down
When you know it was the other way around
It's getting cloudy on this side of town
Your setting sun is the only light
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
At the end of our golden age
There's nothing left but me and you
Give me a chance there's a void to fill
We're built to last not built to spill
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
You tried but you never won
You got me held in contempt of court
