lyrics

Ancient love in liquor stores,
Highway drives through desert storms.
Down red rock roads to romance rendezvous.

Smoking rooms and soggy skies
Muscle cars, her hazel eyes
Up all night
with one bottle of Gin.

And just like a goddamned brick to the face,
I got morning coming through my window.
And I ain’t fit to face another day of this
Living in the past and worried about the future.
I’ve got trouble on my mind.
Nothing seems to last and I’m only getting older
With this trouble on my mind.

Trouble. On my mind.

My shrink, she says,
“boy you gotta take it easy on yourself,
‘cause there’s no one else
who’s gonna see it so upside down.
Pick you on up when you’re spiraling out and say
you’ve done nothing wrong.
Nothing wrong.”

And just like a goddamned
brick to the face
I got morning coming through my window.
I ain’t fit to face another day of this
Living in the past and worried about the future.
I’ve got trouble on my mind.
Nothing seems to last and I’m only getting older
With this trouble on my mind.

Trouble on my mind.

I’ve got trouble on my mind.

I’ve been feeling so much lighter
Since I lost it all when I hit the ground.
I ain’t afraid no more.
I want to soak up the spring
And run through the summer again.

I’ve been seeing so much clearer
Since I ditched my mask
And my brain dried out.
Searching for the wonder in every little moment.

Humbly returning the love that I’ve been given.
Saying yes to what is and simply not forgetting to

Be right here, right now
And remember to breathe.

Yeah, I’ve just gotta be right here, right now.
Remember to breathe.

I’ve just gotta Be.
Right here.
Right now.
Remember To Breathe.

Remember To Breathe.
