pain of a troubled life

i've lived a dozen lifetimes in twenty-some-odd years

got no use for trouble

got no use for tears

can't you see it's killing me

i'm old before my time

i won't let you double the pain of a troubled life

i've had my share of sorrow

more than you could know

save your lies and alibis

i've heard that tune before

can't you see it's killing me

i'm old before my time

i won't let you double the pain of a troubled life

you're out all night

asleep all day

so pack it up and leave

i've got no use for trouble

trouble's using me

don't you see my love won't be forever deaf and blind

i won't let you double the pain of a troubled life

can't you see that love can't be forever deaf and blind?
