Trouble Tab

by William Tell


                                 
She makes me stumble, out of this skin
                                
To fight the troubled shakes in my head
                       
And my heart keeps its hurting
              
Of leaving me behind
                                        
While the worry she’s bride is stalling my mind


                 
The trouble I’ve found
                   
Is not only just in me
                     
But we’ve all got it somehow,
                             
Somewhere for no one else to see
                         
Pull yourself up off the ground
                        
Because we all have our things
                    
And you know that I always,
                       
Always listen when you speak

To the trouble in me


            
She has her dreams
                    
In black across her arms
               
She says that she’s off track
                                
And they remind her of just how far
                 
And she makes me think
                          
That we don’t know who we are
                                             
You just found someone to hold you from falling apart


              
The trouble I’ve found
                   
Is not only just in me
                     
But we’ve all got it somehow,
                             
Somewhere for no one else to see
                         
Pull yourself up off the ground
                        
Because we all have our things
                    
And you know that I always,
                       
Always listen when you speak

To the trouble in me


                     
And you can’t turn it off
                       
It’s right there in your eyes
                 
And my room got so small
                
How did you get me right?
              
And I can be so wrong,
          
So wrong, now


              
The trouble I’ve found
                   
Is not only just in me
                     
But we’ve all got it somehow,
                             
Somewhere for no one else to see
                         
Pull yourself up off the ground
                        
Because we all have our things
                    
And you know that I always,
                       
Always listen when you speak
