lyrics

As each day goes by
Those rose-thorn thoughts sink far behind
Those troublesome thoughts — If not, then why
Those troublesome thoughts sink far behind
Troublesome thoughts, cumbersome fears
I've cried some horrible words
Troublesome thoughts, cumbersome fears
I've cried some terrible tears
And for what?

Survey the new day
With hands on the wheel
Driving far away
From the those troublesome thoughts
That soured my mind
Troublesome thoughts, stupid attempts
I've said some stupid things
Troublesome thoughts, stupid attempts
But I no longer cling to them

Forget regret, my friend
Those blackest thoughts will sink far behind
Those troublesome thoughts — the kiss you must try
Love or die, sink far behind
Troublesome thoughts, irreverent nights
I never thought I could
Troublesome thoughts, irreverent nights
But now I think I will
Fight back

As each day goes by
Those rose-thorn thoughts sink far behind
Troublesome thoughts, belligerent lust
Throw a shadow on the days I should love
Troublesome thoughts, belligerent lust
Made a meal of the things I could trust
But so what?

Sink far behind
