These people, what are your friends for?
You wish they could help you, you better get used to
We don't sleep much, we're looking for trouble
We saw town sides, I was your lover
Now I hold back, when I talk to you. When I'm blacked out
And you're biased, cause I'm keeping you close to me

I grab your arm hard, to make you hit me
To make it hurt less, to even wait
He is a madman, he is my trouble
It's not right now, he is my burden

I talk loud, I push right back, when he is my trouble, my trouble
To ask me to hit him, til words got out

He is a madman, he is my trouble
He's my sadness, he is my burden

And the women, they sing in their low keys
They sing how did they get here, I wish they could carry me over the waters

But I cannot say anything, this is a secret
You took me out here, you walked on a limb for me

He is my sadness, he's my trouble
It's not right now, he's my burden
When he's my trouble
I was your lover, I was your lover
And now he’s over land and seas
Now he’s over land and seas. He's my burden
