one for the troops Lyrics by ericdoa

why suffer for us?

2024

[Verse 1]
Oh, they been watching me (They been watching me)
Prop me up for show, girl, I'm your novelty (Oh)
You can pick my brain and teach me your philosophy
Left my soul in this damn bottle
I'll treat your words like it's all gospel
I'll play nice but I won't grovel
I'll build tall, watch it all topple

[Chorus]
If I can change the way you fell (Way you fell)
Would you lay here with someone else? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)
And girl, I knew that I gave you Hell (I gave you Hеll)
Would you take it from someone еlse? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)

[Verse 2]
Think I lost the plot (Think I lost the plot)
Tongue is twisted, speak your language, girl, I'm a polyglot (Polyglot)
Will it feel this way forever? Girl, probably not
But as long as you're here (As long as you're here)
My spirit won't die (Spirit won't die)
I'm surrounded by mistakes
Give it one more try

[Pre-Chorus]
We could have discussions, they honestly don't mean nothing for you (For you)
Am I the one you summon when ain't nobody got nothing for you? (For you, yeah)

[Chorus]
If I can change the way you fell (Way you fell)
Would you lay here with someone else? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)
And girl, I knew that I gave you Hell (I gave you Hell)
Would you take it from someone else? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)

[Bridge]
And if I tell you the truth
Girl, you'll love me better (You'll love me better)
And if it's one for the troops
Then maybe we should get together (Get together)

[Chorus]
If I can change the way you fell (Way you fell)
Would you lay here with someone else? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)
And girl, I knew that I gave you Hell (I gave you Hell)
Would you take it from someone else? (Someone else)
Ah-a— someone else? (Someone else)
