The Trouble lyrics

Honey, sugar, lover, ever

Baby this one is for you

Alcoholic, so catastrophic

You gave me something to do

You tie me up in a ball in a cup

In a black Cadillac in the box of a Jack

In a moment of truth in a mistaken youth

I am tragically yours in a page in a book

Sweetheart, my darling, slightly charming

Wrap me in nettles and thorns

Precious letters, maybe it's better

If you had never been born

You come inside like a victory bride

But you're all dressed in crimson and blacked out your eyes And so exaggerated so much that you rip at the seams

And I tear out the dice on your lips

Headache, staring

Toothache tearing

Earthquake, bearing

How am I meant to believe?

In someone quite like you

I know once you loved me too

The price you pay is critical

Why did I stay?

It's pitiful

Incoherence, my disappearance

Where did my dignity go?

Daytime nightmares, get your fair share?

No, well I didn't think so

You slip away into slumber I lay

And I crumble and pay for the price on your head

And I hate to admit that your conscience is clear

When you know what you did and you won't shed a tear

Shaking, Burning, in-the-grave turning

Burden your demons on me

Seething, writhing, raging, caving

See how I split into three

Ivory runs as the night overcomes

And I'm left with the cold and the dark and the numbness

So unsympathetic, I said no I meant it

I pointlessly argue my case as defendant

Headache, staring

Toothache tearing

Earthquake, bearing

How could you go make me bleed?

On someone quite like you

I know once you loved me too

But the price you pay is critical

Why did I stay?

It's goddamn fucking pitiful.
