I'm Tired

We must be headed in the wrong direction

'Cause there's nothing but pain out there

I heard you say somethin' about the cross upon your back

The truth is, baby, life ain't always fair

Your whole life is water runnin' down a sidewalk

You followed the rocks and the cracks as you crawl on the ground

I ain't seen you smile in so long

You must've built a house in the misery you found

But I'm tired, I'm tired now

Tired of playin' the same old game

You got to get yourself together

Say to yourself I ain't goin' down this way

I ain't goin' down this way, but I'm tired

Sifting through your memories, deep underground with the dead

Maybe you were high on the top of the cloud

With the dragon that lives in your head

Maybe you were draggin' your wagon

With your thoughts like old wooden toys

Maybe you were lookin' for something

That you lost when you were a boy

But I'm tired, I'm tired now

Tired of playin' the same old game

You got to get yourself together

Say to yourself I ain't goin' down this way

I ain't goin' down this way

You eat when you're hungry, sleep when you're sleepy

You drink like there's a hole in your soul

All of your problems are beggin' to leave

But you never want to let 'em go

You never want to let 'em go

But I'm tired, I'm tired now

Tired of playin' the same old game

You got to get yourself together

Say to yourself I ain't goin' down this way

I ain't goin' down this way, yeah

But it's a fine line between livin' it up and losin' it all

Yeah, it's a fine line between gettin' up and movin' on

Yeah, it's a fine line between livin' it up and losin' it all

Yeah, it's a fine line between livin' it up and movin' on

And if you stay one more day, babe

Don't you know you're gonna die? You're gonna die

La, la, la, la, la, la yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

La, la, la, la, la, la yeah, yeah, yeah
