We must be headed in the wrong direction
Cause there's nothing but pain out there.
I heard you say something about the cross upon your back
But the truth is, baby, life ain't always fair.
Your whole life is water runnin' down a sidewalk
You followed the rocks and the cracks as you crawl on the ground.
I ain't see you smile in so long
You must of built a house in the misery you found.
- I'm tired, I'm tired now
Tired of playin' this same old game.
You've got to get yourself together,
Say to yourself "I ain't goin' down this way,
I ain't goin' down this way", but I'm tired. -
- REPEAT INTRO -
Siftin' through your memories deep in the ground with the dead
Maybe you were high on the top of the clouds
With the dragon that live in your head.
Maybe you were draggin' your wagon
With your thoughts like old wooden toys.
Maybe you were lookin' for somethin'
That you lost when you were a boy
- I'm tired, I'm tired now
Tired of playin' this same old game.
You've got to get yourself together,
Say to yourself "I ain't goin' down this way,
I ain't goin' down this way" -
You eat when you're hungry,
You sleep when you're sleepy,
You drink like there's a hole in your soul.
All of your problems are beggin' to leave
But you never want to let 'em go, you never want to let 'em go.
- I'm tired, I'm tired now
Tired of playin' this same old game.
You've got to get yourself together,
Say to yourself "I ain't goin' down this way,
I ain't goin' down this way" -
It's a fine line between livin' it up and losin' it all
It's a fine line between givin' it up and movin' on
It's a fine line between livin' it up and losin' it all
It's a fine line between givin' it up and movin' on
If you stay one more day, babe,
Don't you know your gonna die, you're gonna die.
