lyrics

I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of singing
I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of breathing
so, I take out my teeth and I put them in a jar by the sink
I sit down on the curb outside my apartment to think
about where I’m at—
it’s a gray morning and the cars are rolling slow
seems something happened here last night I’ll never know
the dust is blowing nobody’s meeting my eyes
nobody’s talking too hurt to feel surprised
about what’s happened right here—

I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of drinking
I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of thinking
So I walk down to the river and I draw your name in the mud
I find a little bottle and I fill it all up with my blood
& I watch my arm bleed all over me
I guess you hit a nerve when you asked if I was feeling all right,
You see my little sister finally had her baby last night
two thousand miles away might not be too far for some,
there’s not much to say when you don’t have anyone
to compare yourself to
to see right through
to be next to when you want to break down
I think I’ve broken down
