Weak and tired is my heart
But I don't fall asleep
I keep myself awake at night
Instead of counting sheep
Weak and tired is my mind
Spinning in my head
Please shut it off please shut it off
It's time to go to bed
Weak and tired are my lungs
Just trying to get some air
Sometimes I can't breathe no more
Constricted I feel scared
Weak and tired is my back
Straining as I lay
Can't get myself comfortable
Just make this go away
Weak and tired are my arms
Lifting myself out of bed
Don't seem to have the strength no more
Lie still as they feel dead
Weak and tired are my legs
I want to fall asleep
I feel they're always kicking
This quicksand is getting deep
Weak and tired are my hands
Can't seem to move them anymore
Reaching up for anything
Just seems to be a chore
Weak and tired are my feet
From standing on the ground
I'm feeling daggers stabbing me
Just want to move around
Weak and tired are my eyes
They're open all the time
Especially when I try to sleep
I seem to be losing my mind
Weak and tired I seem to be
As I finally find myself asleep
