[Verse 1: Noah Kahan]
I grew up pretending sticks were little guns
I would point ’em at my dad and he’d get mad
‘Cause God forbid I’d hurt someone
I’d hurt anyone I could
Anyone who got too close and anyone who wouldn’t look
I was born into a one hundred-year storm
Foot of ice across Vermont
And in that dark and in that frost, a heart was formed
Malcontented and unwarm
You were unsuspecting, not unwarned

[Chorus: Noah Kahan]
That I’m the trouble ahead, that I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I’m a sure bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you doors, you can’t open them up
‘Cause it gets hardеr to see me the closer you try to look

[Post-Chorus: Noah Kahan]
I just livе here, babe, but you’re the one who decided to knock
And you knocked

[Verse 2: Noah Kahan]
Have you ever stared directly at the sun?
Have you ever shared some closeness, so exposed
To have it spit back by someone?
So, forgive me if I jump
At the rattle of your keys
“Oh, are you leaving?,” “No, babe, I’m just waking up”
And now what?
I’m left staring at the ceiling, listing reasons you should pack all your s*it up

[Chorus: Noah Kahan]
Yeah, I’m the trouble ahead and I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I’m a sure bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you doors, but you can’t open them up
‘Cause it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look

[Post-Chorus: Noah Kahan]
I just live here, babe, but you’re the one who decided to knock
You knocked

[Bridge]
I’ll be gone long before the anger comes
I’ll be only what you’ve known of me ’til now
Oh, how I hope you’re moving on

[Chorus: Noah Kahan]
I’m the trouble ahead and I scream in my sleep
You put your money on red, I’m a sure bet at a losing streak
I keep showing you doors, but you can’t open them up
S*it gets harder to see me the closer you try to look

[Post-Chorus: Noah Kahan]
I just live here, babe, but you’re the one
I just live here, babe, but you’re the one
I just live here, babe, but you’re the one
