Song of the Day: "My Name is Trouble."

And Break for Lyrics

My name is trouble my first name’s a mess
No need to greet me I’m here to confess
But if you let me hold you I won’t hold my breath

My chase is endless I tend to obsess
No game lives 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 another side of loneliness
Will always tend to break me in two
If you were to come back to me, in pieces or a 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 another side of loneliness
Will always tend to break me in two
If were to come back to me, in pieces or a melody
There couldn’t be a better way through

My name is Trouble my first name’s a mess
No need to greet me I’m here to confess
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
And 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

People Are a Mess

But isn't it nice to know you're not alone? In the vein of Fiest and St. Vincent and Karen O. and even Lana Del Rey and all those other Dorothy Parker girls who are more beautiful but just as dangerous and just as witty, this Keren Anne minx has my full, undivided attention. If you missed out like I did, I hope she does something for you.

And A Gift...A Surprise, Non?
