"One Less Problem" lyrics

You change the locks, but the thieves came back
You drain the swamp, but the dam's still cracked

Just when you can't take more, trouble's at your door
It falls apart some more, when it rains, it pours
We're going back and forth in an endless tug of war

So many people, so little progress
And all I wish for's one less problem
So much opinion, so many choices
But all I hear is angry voices

I'm all alone and I can't turn back
Entire train's fallen off the track
I wanna sail out to distant shores
And if I fail, guess I'll learn some more, yeah

You take the pill, but you can't relax
You break it off, but you still feel trapped

Just when you can't take more, trouble's at your door
It falls apart some more, when it rains, it pours
We're going back and forth in an endless tug of war

So many people, so little progress
And all I wish for's one less problem
So much opinion, so many choices
But all I hear is angry voices

I'm all alone and I can't turn back
Entire train's fallen off the track
I wanna sail out to distant shores
And if I fail, guess I'll learn to live some more

I wanna wake up to one less problem
And go to bed outta one less fear
I wanna wake up to one less problem
I'm tired of feeling like the end is near

I'm all alone and I can't turn back
Entire train's fallen off the track
I wanna sail out to distant shores
And if I fail, guess I'll learn some more, yeah
Once I was lost, thought I found the path
The pressure's on and the odds are stacked
I'm wide awake, but I can't be sure
Oh, what I'd give to be lost once more, yeah

I wanna wake up to one less problem
I wanna wake up to one less problem
I wanna wake up to one less problem
I swear to God, give me one less problem
