Jesus I’m Tired

Jesus, I’m tired of the war inside my head

People say they love me then go silent instead

Everybody talks about healing and grace

But nobody stays when I’m losing my faith

Jesus, I’m tired

Tired of feeling alone

Tired of reaching out

With nobody home

Jesus, I’m tired

Tired of empty “I care”

People say they love me

Then disappear

Jesus, I keep watching people walk right by

Broken people smiling while they die inside

Everybody says “I’m here” for a little while

Then I’m left alone with another fake smile

Jesus, I’m tired

Tired of feeling alone

Tired of reaching out

With nobody home

Jesus, I’m tired

Tired of empty “I care”

People say they love me

Then disappear

If love is real then why’s it feel so far away?

Why’s everybody scared of pain that doesn’t fade?

Did we get so used to looking the other way

We don’t even notice who is drowning today?

Jesus, I’m tired

Tired of feeling alone

Tired of reaching out

With nobody home

Jesus, I’m tired

So if You’re really there

Don’t let me become

Like the people I fear
