Lyrics
Hello, it's me again
I know I know I shouldn't be here right now
I don't know how else to cope
Got another call, didn't wanna pick it up
'Cause every time it rings lately, it's never good enough
News to make me numb, news to make me sick
Another person gone, another casket, another trip
To a funeral home, standing in a suit I hate
Looking at a body that don't even look the same
As the person that I knew as the person that I loved
Now I'm driving home alone, wondering if I've had enough
Of this life, of this pain, of this weight I keep carrying
Everybody leaning on me who's gonna carry me
I'm the strong one, I'm the rock, I'm the one who don't cry
But I've been breaking every night when nobody's around to see me die
A little more inside, a little more each day
Smile a little harder so they think I'm okay
But I'm not, and I haven't been for months
And I don't know how much more of this a person can become
'Cause I'm tired of being strong
Tired of holding on
Tired of saying I'm okay when everything is wrong
I'm tired of the loss
Tired of the cost
Tired of rebuilding every time I get across
Just to fall again
Grandma died, then Grandpa, then another, then another dropped, and it hasn't stopped
Then my faith, then my sleep, then the feeling that I got
Any fight left in me, I've been swinging at the air
I've been praying to a God I'm not sure is even there
Not sure if he's listening, not sure if he cares
Not sure why he keeps on taking people and leaving me here
To feel it, to grieve it, to carry all the weight
Of the memories and the moments that I'll never recreate
And everybody says they're in a better place now
But what about my place? What about my breakdown
What about the nights I can't sleep 'cause I'm thinking
About the last words I said, were they enough? I'm sinking
Into something dark, and I don't see the bottom yet
Pile keeps getting higher, I ain't seen the top of it
Phone rings I don't answer 'cause I can't take another hit
I'm one more loss away from losing it
'Cause I'm tired of being strong
Tired of holding on
Tired of saying I'm okay when everything is wrong
I'm tired of the loss
Tired of the cost
Tired of rebuilding every time I get across
Just to fall again
I don't want to hear it's gonna be alright
I don't want to hear they're watching from the sky
I don't want to hear that God has got a plan
I just want my people back
I just want to understand
Why it gotta be like this (ooh)
Why it gotta hurt this bad, yeah (ooh)
Why I gotta lose the ones I love
And act like I'm not sad
My brain is a warzone my heart is a grave
My soul is exhausted, I've been trying to be brave
But brave doesn't pay when you're crying in the shower
Brave doesn't help at 4 a.m. losing power
Over your emotions, over your thoughts, over your mind
Over everything you built, watching it decline
And I'm not looking for a fix, I'm not looking to be saved
I'm just trying to survive another day inside this cage
That I built, that I'm trapped in, that I carry like a shell
Heaven for everybody else, but for me it's been hell
And I'm not saying I'm the victim, I'm just saying that I'm tired
I'm the mansion, and I'm burning, and I'm the one who set the fire
But I didn't mean to, I just didn't know another way
To deal with all this pain that keeps on piling every day
So I'm standing in the flames watching everything I love
Turn to smoke, turn to ash, turn to dust, turn to nothing
I'm just tired
I'm so tired
I don't know how much more I got
I'm just tired
