I’m tired of trying.
And tired of crying.
Tired of my mind telling me
I’m not good enough.
Tired of living the same day.
Tired of people
Who say I’m not right.
Tired of life not being fair.
Tired of feeling sorry for myself.
Tired of my stupid insecurities.
I want to live,
I want to love,
I want to be loved.
But I’m just too tired.
Tired of depression.
Tired of being tired.
Give me a reason,
Give me a rhyme.
Give me light to find my way,
Along the dark path we call life.
I’m sorry I’m not right,
I’m sorry I’m so sad,
I try to be happy.
These secrets that I’ve had,
They drive me crazy and make me hurt.
I’m heading for a breakdown,
If I don’t get them off my chest.
No one to tell!
So I’ll hold them inside.
Until I’m too tired,
To hold these secrets quiet.
