Given yourself trouble
now Ill give you mine
believe I started drinking
because I cannot deal with life
Sometimes I am heavy
Next time float on rye
Pass another fear of trying
Victory is all mine
Seen my day of dying
Seen the burial ground
See us pass out all our trouble
But I don't see no one crying
Given myself trouble
Wasted so much time
Took my medication
Fold my arms and die

I love the grooves, the voice so wonderfully captured, and the musical arrangements (strings, piano, guitar, bass & percussion) but primarily it's Irena's voice. Nice lyrics too. Hassles
