Troubles

Take all my troubles

Throw them down

Boot heel grind them into the ground

Take my big sorrow

Make it shatter

Into little pieces

That no longer matter

No more questions

I’ve had enough

We’ve known all along,

The answer’s love

World, show me your beauty

And your heart

That seems to be an honest way to start

Girl, show me your beauty

And your heart

That seems to be the best way to start

Take all my troubles

Throw them down

Boot heel grind them into the ground

Grind them into the ground

Into the ground

Into the ground
