Problem Child

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 --- Problem Child - Ben Harper
