This mood of restlessness, this growing sense of helplessness Just adds to my condition and my doubt An anger simmers like a stormcloud that just lingers with the Threat of thunder poised upon my brow But no matter how hard I try I just can't seem to sleep at night And troubled thoughts is what you find When you're caught up in troubled times I can't imagine come tomorrow I'll be standing or just sifting through the garbage and the trash You say that I mistook the warning signs flash high above Just like the vultures circling in the sky But matter how hard I try I just can't seem to sleep at night And troubled thoughts is what you'll find Now you're caught up in troubled times Well it's no use because everything I do These same old troubled thoughts keep coming back Yeah it's the same, now it's happening again I thought that I had freed myself at last But no matter how hard I try I just can't seem to sleep at night And troubled thoughts is what you'll find Now you're caught up in troubled times Troubled times And I thought that I had freed myself at last And I thought that I had freed myself at last And I thought that I had freed myself at last And I thought that I had freed myself at last At last At last
