verse 1
Oh my tired eyes
Form a great disguise
Of all I compromised for this
And all those sleepless nights
And the nine to fives
They leave me paralyzed
They leave me paralyzed
And now my city falls asleep on my shoulders
And my city falls asleep on my lap
When it's all done and over
Oh my city needs a nap
Oh my city needs a nap
Instrumental
verse 2
So I hold my breath
As I lose my hair
For a pay check
That I'll take me there
And I walk the line
To the other side
This fear of bitterness
It leaves me terrified
But doing what you love don't make you money
And doing what you hate will make you full
Then let me be forever hungry
If it's up to me I will
If it's up to me I will
Bridge
I'll keep these tired eyes
And I'll keep these tired eyes
And I'll keep these tired eyes
For now
I'll keep these tired eyes
And I'll keep these tired eyes
And I'll keep these tired eyes
For now
