Dan Mangan Troubled Mind Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't take the heat, guess I got a troubled mind
History repeats and they say I got a troubled mind
And it won't let up, it's like a bad dream, they say I got a troubled mind
Shaking like a sad teen, gotta say I got a troubled mind

[Pre-Chorus]
What the hell is wrong with everybody right now?
Everywhere I look, it's the same sound

[Chorus]
Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody
The melody, sometimes it gets ahead of me
Ahead of my mind, it gets ahead of me, gets ahead of me
Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody

[Verse 2]
Riots in the street, guess I got a troubled mind
And if history repeats, well you know I got a troubled mind
And it won't let up
And it won't let up
And it won't let up

[Pre-Chorus]
What the hell is wrong with everybody right now?
Everywhere I look, it's the same sound

[Chorus]
Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody
The melody - sometimes it gets ahead of me
Ahead of my mind, it gets ahead of me, gets ahead of me

[Bridge]
Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth?
Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out
Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth? Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out

[Pre-Chorus]
What the hell is wrong with everybody right now?
(Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth?)
Everywhere I look, it's the same sound
(Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out)

[Chorus]
Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody
(Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth?)
The melody, sometimes it gets ahead of me
(Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out)
Ahead of my mind, it gets ahead of me, gets ahead of me

Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody
(Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth?)
The melody, sometimes it gets ahead of me
(Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out)
Ahead of my mind, it gets ahead of me, gets ahead of me

Haunted by the melody, the melody, haunted by the melody
(Are we a force of nature? Or just a sore in the mouth?)
The melody - sometimes it gets ahead of me
(Are we the beautiful future? I can't figure it out)
Ahead of my mind, it gets ahead of me, gets ahead of me

[Outro]
Are we the voice of reason? Or just the faintest sound?
Are we the voice of reason? I can't figure it out
