the troubles (alternative version)

you think it's easier

to get your fingers out of trouble

when the trouble is you

you think it's easier

to keep your hands out of trouble

when the trouble is you

i have a will for survival

so you can hurt me

then hurt me some more

i can live with denial

but you're not my troubles anymore

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say

you think it's easier

to give up on the trouble

if the trouble is destroying you

you think it's easier

to know your own tricks

well it's the hardest thing you'll ever do

i have the will for survival

so you can hurt me then hurt me some more

i can live with denial

but you're not my troubles anymore

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say

i stepped outside like i had never seen the night before

looking at the stars that never looked so bright before

this crooked heart it never felt so light before

a brand new man

i'm a brand new man

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody stop the world i'm on

somebody throw a line to me

somebody tell me what to say
