Lyrics The Jayhawks

The Jayhawks

Trouble

Trouble that's what we had

And everything that goes around

Comes around in a bittersweet lament

Well my heart's already broken down

Looking for a sweeter sound

Looking for a brighter day

I'm face down on the pavement

Step aside, see the light, close your eyes

And let us live our lives

As they rally 'round the sinking ship

Looking for a better way

It was just the blind leading the blind

I got my feet back on the ground

It's better to be alone

Funny

We tried it all

You left me standing on the brink

Looking down, down, down

There's a little bit of truth in every lie

You were so above us all

It was just the blind leading the blind

I got my feet back on the ground

It's better than being alone

It's better than being alone

We were stranded on the vine

Destitute and shaken

Looking for a sign

Left hung out to dry

Our backs against the wall

Stoned out of our minds

Oh yeah, I've got my feet back on the ground

But you know, it's better than being alone

It's better than being alone
