(Verse 1)
The candle flickers, shadows dance,
Another weary, longing glance.
The weight of days, a heavy cloak,
Beneath its folds, my spirit broke.
"I am, I am tired of trying,"
The words escape, like birds all crying.
(Chorus)
"I am tired of being there,"
A hollow echo in the air.
"I am tired, and I am tired of being alive,"
A fragile whisper, barely survive.
(Verse 2)
Each note a burden, each line a plea,
A melody of misery.
"I'm tired of saying these things,"
This endless cycle sorrow brings.
"I am tired of this song,"
Where shadows lengthen, growing long.
(Chorus)
"I am tired of being there,"
A hollow echo in the air.
"I am tired, and I am tired of being alive,"
A fragile whisper, barely survive.
(Bridge)
But even in the darkest night,
A spark remains, a flicker of light.
A silent promise, soft and low,
That even weary souls can grow.
(Outro)
"I’m tired of loving everybody and nobody loving me back."
Take a moment, look around, and see if that's really true.
There's beauty in the world, waiting for you.
