My glass is half empty
You hand me a smaller cup
Then you resent me when there's not enough
One drop is as dangerous as a vial
We've got a problem
We've got a problem child

I don't gamble like I used to
Got nothing left to spare
You practice deep breathing
But I don't come up for air
I might lose you
With one turn of the dial
Got a problem, mm
Got a problem child

Days pass as the Lord intended
Suffering aside
This can't go on
But we can't say goodbye
I know we used to
But it's been a while
It's a problem
A problem child

Bygones go by
But they're never gone
Need a new way to heal
One that doesn't take so long
One that's not so hard to reconcile
The problem
The problem child

In the streets with ill intention
Running from the law
Filed an extension
For my fundamental flaw
All along they've been keeping a file
For the problem
Problem child

Problem child
