"Trouble Breathing" lyrics - ALKALINE TRIO

You told me that you want to die
I said I've been there myself more than a few times
And I go back every once in a while
You called me lucky, you called me lucky.

You said tonight is a wonderful night to die
I asked how you could tell, you told me to look at the sky
Look at all those stars
Look at how goddamn ugly the stars are

It's one or another
Between a rope and a bottle
I can tell you're having trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
You'll always feel this way
'Cause things, they never work out right
The wrong way, the lonely way
You'll always be in pain

You told me that the daylight burns you
And that the sunrise was enough to kill you
I said maybe you're a vampire
You said it's quite possible, I feel truly dead inside

It's one or another
Between a rope and a bottle
I can tell you're having trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
You'll always feel this way
'Cause, things they never work out right
The wrong way, the lonely way
You'll always be in pain

Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out
Don't forget to let your life rot you inside out
