Long List of Troubles

Just like cold steel shot hot out of a gun

Just like a orange peel left all day in the sun

I've got no feel that's done left me scarred

What don't kill me has done made me hard

Just like storms feel when you've got no place to run

Just like love feels when you thought she was the one

From the school of hard-knocks

Trapped between a rock and a hard place

What don't kill me has done made me hard

I've learned to breathe underwater

And lay fire to bed

I'm just a man under pressure

Like Muddy Waters said

Disappointment can drop me

From a thousand stories high

I got a spare set of wings

Watch me fly

Just like storms feel when you've no place to run

Just like love feels when you thought she was the one

The school of hard-knocks

Right between a rock and a hard place

What don't kill me has done made me hard

I've learned to breathe underwater

And lay fire to bed

I'm just a man under pressure

Like Muddy Waters said

Disappointment can drop me

From a thousand stories high

I've got a spare pair of wings

Oh, watch me fly

Taxes are due

And I'm through with you

I've been lonely a long time

I'm hungry now

And I was hungry then

I've gotta know them

I've got a notice just the other day

They said that I'm underwater

I'm underwater
