The Troubles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You know I peaked but I'm not sure when
I've been chasing peace of mind that's already left
All this progress is a waste of time that came and went
And we were always happy 'cause we don't make any sense
And we were always happy 'cause we don't make any sense
I've been going between bolting streams
And maybe it's just me, but that seems so naive
I live through these catastrophes
Even though they get the best of me
I'll just take all the highs and lows
'Cause it's the only thing I'll ever know
You know I peaked but I can't say when
It's been years and I've been cursing underneath my breath
And this process is the shallow side of stuck in the deep end
And we were always happy when it's broke and not just bent
And we were always happy when it's broke and not just bent
I've been going between bolting streams
And maybe it's just me, but that seems so naive
I live through these catastrophes
Even though they get the best of me
I'll just take all the highs and lows
'Cause it's the only thing I'll ever know
'Cause it's the only thing I'll ever know
I've been slipping between bolting streams
And maybe it's just me, but that seems so naive
I live through these catastrophes
And the troubles get the best of me
