Tired1

[full band immediately, bright guitars, huge gang harmonies]
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
(Whoa-oh!)
I FEEL SO INCOMPLETE!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
[gang chant]
HEY!
HEY!
HEY!
VERSE 1
[palm-muted pop-punk riff, driving drums, gritty melodic vocal]
I built a ladder to tomorrow,
With the pieces left behind.
The truth is hard to swallow,
I guess that's by design.
Every time I see the top,
I get knocked back down to the floor.
Frustration’s just a knot
Squeezed tighter than before.
Every promise that I make
Feels like it slips through my hands.
Like I’m fighting with a shadow
That already knows my plans.
PRE-CHORUS
[palm-muted guitars building, gang harmony underneath]
I keep climbing
Just to fall again.
I can't outrun
The devil wearing my skin.
[snare build]
CHORUS
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
(Whoa-oh!)
I FEEL SO INCOMPLETE!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
HEY!
HEY!
HEY!
VERSE 2
[bigger guitars, vocal more aggressive]
I sabotage the moment
Right before it feels complete.
Every step toward something better
Falls to pieces at my feet.
Every time I start believing
Maybe things could finally change,
Something in me pulls the trigger
On the progress that I’ve made.
[band drops to kick + palm-muted guitar hits]
[Gang]
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
[full band ramps back up]
PRE-CHORUS
I keep climbing
Just to fall again.
I can't outrun
The devil wearing my skin.
CHORUS
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
(Whoa-oh!)
I FEEL SO INCOMPLETE!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
HEY!
HEY!
HEY!
BREAKDOWN
[half-time drums, heavy chugs, vocal almost spoken then shouted]
I KNOW EXACTLY
HOW THIS GOES
I BUILD THINGS UP
JUST TO WATCH THEM IMPLODE
LIKE EVERY GOOD THING
I TOUCH BLEEDS
'CAUSE THE WORST PART OF ME
IS ME
[GANG SHOUT]
IS. ME.
FINAL CHORUS
[biggest lift, stacked harmonies, arena energy]
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
(Whoa-oh!)
I FEEL SO INCOMPLETE!
(Whoa-oh!)
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
HEY!
HEY!
HEY!
OUTRO
[instruments drop, gang vocals echo]
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
I’M TIRED OF EVERYTHING!
I’M TIRED OF BEING ME!
