Trouble Breathing Lyrics

The song Trouble Breathing is performed by Alkaline Trio in the album named Goddamnit! in the year 1998 .

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', you called me lucky

You said, "Tonight is a wonderful night to die"
I asked you 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
And I can tell you're having
Trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
(You'll never be okay)
You'll always be in pain, you'll always feel this way
(Never be okay)

'Cause things, they never work out right
(It never works out right)
The wrong way, the lonely way, you'll always be in pain
(It never works out right)

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
And I can tell, you're having
Trouble breathing

'Cause you'll never be okay
(You'll never be okay)
You'll always be in pain, you'll always feel this way
(Never be okay)

'Cause things, they never work out right
(It never works out right)
The wrong way, the lonely way, you'll always be in pain
(It never works out right)

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
