Intro
Verse 1
I grew up pretending sticks were little
guns
I would point 'em at my dad, and he'd get
mad
'Cause God for
bid I hurt someone
I'd hurt anyone I
could
Anyone who got too close, and
anyone who wouldn't look
I was born into a one hundred year
storm
Foot of ice across Vermont
And in that
dark, and in that
frost, a heart was
formed
Malcontented and un
warm
You were unsuspecting, not un
warned
Chorus
That I'm the trouble
ahead
That I scream in my
sleep
You're putting money on
red, I'm a sure
bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you
doors,
but you can't open them
up
'Cause it gets harder to
see me the
closer you try to
look
[Post-Chorus]
I just live here, babe, but you're the
one who decided to
knock
And you
knocked
Verse 2
Have you ever stared directly at the
sun?
Have you ever shared some closeness, so
exposed
To have it
spit back by someone?
So, forgive me if I
jump
At the rattle of your keys
"Oh, are you
leaving?" "No, babe, I'm just waking up"
And now
what?
I'm left staring at the ceiling, listing
reasons you should pack all your shit up
Chorus
That I'm the trouble
ahead
That I scream in my
sleep
You're putting money on
red, I'm a sure
bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you
doors,
but you can't open them
up
'Cause it gets harder to
see me the
closer you try to
look
[Post-Chorus]
I just
live here, babe, but you're the
one who decided to
knock
You
knocked
Solo
Bridge
I'll be gone so long before the anger
comes
I'll be only what you've known of me 'til
now
Oh, how I
hope you're moving on
Chorus
That I'm the trouble
ahead
That I scream in my
sleep
You're putting money on
red, I'm a sure
bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you
doors,
but you can't open them
up
'Cause it gets harder to
see me the
closer you try to
look
Outro
I just
live here, babe, but you're the
one
I just
live here, babe, but you're the
one
I just
live here, babe, but you're the
one
