My name is trouble, my first name's a mess
No need to greet me, I'm here to confess.
That if you let me hold you I won't hold my breath.
And if you let me love you I will love to death

My chase is endless I tend to obsess.
No game is up to my need to possess.
But if you let me hold you I won't hold my breath
And if you let me love you I will love you to death

I'm petrified of emptiness, let aside the loneliness
And lovers tend to break me in two
If you were [bad word] back to me, in pieces or in melody
There couldn't be a better way through

My name is trouble my first name's a mess
Born to deceive you, brought up to redress
And if you let me hold you, I won't hold my breath
But if you make me need you I will need you less.

I'm petrified of emptiness, let aside the loneliness
And lovers tend to break me in two
If you were [bad word] back to me, in pieces or in melody
There couldn't be a better way through

My name is trouble, my first names a mess
No need to greet me, I'm here to confess.
That if you let me hold you I won't hold my breath
And if you let me love you I will love to death

But if you let me hold you I won't hold my breath
And if you let me love you I will love you to death
