TOPAZ – Troublemaker

This is the 2nd single from his new album ‘Help Yourself To My Garden’ out  June 9th.

Let’s take a minute to believe you’re caught
still got tricks all up your sleeve can’t run
but now there really is no need
the ghost knows to put us into the gutter

i wanna know that i’m innocent
these street police will wake up our guests
this creature that comes out in my head
another credit to the top

the mirror is a cop
chlorine days, the crestfall shock
confusion ties the knot
treasure spent for trouble bought
troublemaker, troublemaker

i was there to start the war
i sold the craving
a perfect crew that i adore
pushing daisies
a clean break won’t stop the flood to begin
rent free another problem within
cold feet but now i walk on quicksand
don’t invest in what’s not bought

to remedy a thought
a tidal wave hits ocean rocks
no trace of us
the crime that pays divides the flock
troublemaker, troublemaker
