Lyrics
Sung By: Rick Hughes
People are lying they keep on trying
To live where they can be free
They jam into boats with a knife at their throats
It's a problem for you not for me
The trouble is politicians rule with an iron hand
The trouble is the threat's alive among the living and the dead
Children are crying people are starving
We say we're helpless it's their destiny
Countdown to disaster before and after
Is all the same but with a different name and that's all
The trouble is black and white are turning into grey
The trouble is it's getting hard just to get the time of day
Lost in the dark, alone and weak
Left here forever, is it real, or just a crazy dream
Out on my own, I'll kill to live
Born from a nightmare, life is just a living hell
Runaway, live today, and break the evil spell
Pay the price, rule the night
Blackening dream, twisting my mind
I'm going faster, everyday I'm killing time
If you see me riding with fear
Don't try to stop me, I'm spinning like a wheel
Runaway, die today, break the evil spell
Pay the price, rule the night
Solo: (Ashley)
Lost and alone, I'm feeling weak
Left here forever with just my lonely dream
Out of the dark, I'll kill to live
Born from a night mare, life is just a living hell
Just like a runaway!
Solo: (Ashley/Angel/Dual)
I get up at night and I can't find the light
As I stumble in total darkness I'm writing this song
To point the finger at what's wrong
But words of wisdom seem to escape me
The trouble is you got no right to tell us right from wrong
The trouble is it's just too bad if you don't like this song
The trouble is you politicians can't understand
The trouble is that we the people will fight 'till the end!
Yeah, that's the trouble is!
Yeah, that's the trouble is!
Yeah, that's the trouble is!
Yeah, that's the trouble is!
