troubles (feat. yesh & Helena Mayer)

I've been wakin' up with demons in my brain
I drown 'em out with TV, but the stories are the same
Oh, maybe I can't sleep at night because I am afraid
Of somethin' I can't change

Mama said that I was special, daddy would agree
So why's it feel like everybody's shinier than me?
I'm tryin', but it's like I'm lyin' through my crooked teeth
'Cause shiny isn't me

I got troubles on my mind
I would fix them, but I got no time
I got troubles, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Rip my heart out of my chest and put it on a page
It feels stupid, it feels small, like it's all in vain
Used to think that I was different, but I'm just the same
Maybe I'm insane

I keep hatin' what I see lookin' back at me
Try to keep up with the world, I just can't compete
Wondеr if the words I say amount to anything, oh

I keep telling peoplе I'm okay (I'm okay)
I keep telling people I'm okay (okay)
Look 'em in the eye while I pray for rain
There's fires in my brain

I got troubles on my mind (on my mind)
I would fix them, but I got no time
I got troubles on my mind (I got troubles)
I would fix them, but I got no time (I got no time)

I got troubles, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
I got troubles, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
