Lyrics Tired - Rosie Thomas

Tired

What if I were to say I love you?
What if I believed it to be true?
Would it be my downfall, would it wither all my pride
To admit my world seems lonely without you?
What if I were to ignore all these voices
That seem to stretch my body thin?
I am no man’s savior
I need to get that through my head
Before my own walls come crashing in
I’m so tired, and I’m so wired
Perfection seems to brutalize these veins
To just give in might be to win
But it takes an awful lot to find the way
What if I were to just stop breathing
And let those walls come tumbling in?
What if I stopped placing one foot before the other
And failure was my only friend?
I’m so tired, and I’m so wired
Perfection seems to brutalize these veins
To just give in might be to win
But it takes an awful lot to find the way
Gotta find the way
Oh, I’ll find the way
What if I were to just surrender
And failure was my only friend?
What if I were to speak without allowing
Words to filter through my teeth or
Turn my skin to glass to let you in?
I’m so tired, and I’m so wired
Perfection seems to brutalize these veins
To just give in might be to win
But it takes an awful lot to find the way
Gotta find the way
So I’ll find the way
