[Intro: melodic Holler motif] [Verse 1: Bubba male] My feelings built a wooden throne And asked me to bow down One day joy was wearing royal robes Next day fear wore the crown [Chorus: Bubba mature male and Darlene unmistakably female] Don't make your feelings God Don't bow before the storm They can tell you how the weather feels But not what love is for Let the wind blow through the porch Let the truth still have its song Don't make your feelings God [Verse 2: Darlene female] I've used a verse to win an argument When I ought to hear the other side I've called my anger holy fire When it was only wounded pride [Bridge: duet] The Bible isn't mine to weaponize And tears are never a disgrace Let compassion take the high seat [Final Chorus: swelling full band, duet] Don't make your feelings God Don't bow before the storm They can tell you how the weather feels But not what love is for Let the wind blow through the porch Let the truth still have its song Don't make your feelings God [Outro: instrumental resolve, no abrupt cutoff]
