Lyrics
One Trouble More
[©12/10 Words and Music by Mike Tucker and Jeffry Swertfeger]
[VERSE 1]
I carry the weight of the world like an anchor
There's times when it taxes my spirit
And times when I need just a small separation
From my mind when it's time that I clear it.
[VERSE 2]
Each time that I feel that I'm reaching my limit
Some fool will be there for the "pile on"
Transformed like a cog on the set of the Matrix.
My shoulder is offered to cry on.
[CHORUS]
Just give me one trouble more
Just one trouble, one trouble, one trouble more.
Just give me one trouble, one trouble, one trouble
Just give me one trouble more.
[VERSE 3]
I scream in my sleep and laugh when I'm sad.
Schizophrenic extremes that I smother.
It's the sound of the whisper that won't let me go.
Like a knife at my throat from my brother.
[VERSE 4]
Well I should be thankful - content with my lot.
There's a world full of people trying to kill me.
It's the war of the mind, taking pleasure from pain
It's the voices in shadows that thrill me.
CHORUS]
Just give me one trouble more
Just one trouble, one trouble, one trouble more.
Just give me one trouble, one trouble, one trouble
Just give me one trouble more.
