Verse 1}

So you wanted happiness, oh

Well I'm not one to second guess

I oughta get myself in check, oh

Before I'm left alone again

 

{Pre-Chorus}

As I caught my own reflection

We were just making conversation to pass the time

I never doubted my dependence

But now it’s retrospective, let’s draw the line

 

{Chorus}

I’m a troubled son

I come undone

Then I cut and run

I’m a troubled son

 

{Verse 2}

Maybe there’s a time or place, oh

For me to set the record straight

Maybe I could save some face, oh

I need to feel safe

 

{Pre-Chorus}

In this darkness I remain

I’m still standing in the rain

Do you hear my call?

As it echos through my veins

And a lifetime of mistakes, just see my fall

 

{Chorus}

I’m a troubled son

I come undone

Then I cut and run

I’m a troubled son

 

{Bridge}

I’m sick and I’m tired of second guessin’

Maybe in time, I'll learn my lesson

I’ve said some things, I made a mess

And I’m facing my sins, this life is precious

I’m sick and I’m tired of second guessin’

Maybe in time, I'll learn my lesson

I’ve said some things, I made a mess

And I’m facing my sins tonight

 

{Chorus}

I’m a troubled son

I come undone

Then I cut and run

I’m a troubled son

 

{Chorus}

I’m a troubled son

I come undone

Then I cut and run

I’m a troubled son

 

{Outro}

I’m a troubled son

(I’m sick and I’m tired of second guessin’)

I'm a troubled son

(Maybe in time, I'll learn my lesson)

I'm a troubled son

(I’ve said some things, I made a mess)

I'm a troubled son

(And I'm facing my sins tonight)

I'm a troubled son
