Tired

I knew I shouldn't be here,

I felt I had to go,

I hate these kinds of feelings,

I hate letting them show.

Maybe you knew something was wrong,

Maybe you could tell,

Maybe you saw I was tired of blaming the world-

Of blaming everyone but myself.

So when you asked me "what is wrong?" and I replied, "I'm tired",

I wasn't fully lying to you,

It felt as if I was mentally expired.

Maybe you noticed how I laughed less,

How I always looked distant,

And maybe you noticed how quiet I've gotten,

I'm sorry,

I guess I was just tired of fakin' it.
