[Verse 1] I’d like to say, if I may I’m tired of today And today’s ways All the acts, all the characters And their silly charades All the ruins upon my parables All these crusades And plans being made The rain on my parade The never-ending search For ways to be played [Pre-Chorus] And I’m wishing for moments I wish could have stayed Before they were traded Before they went away Into something they never were Something they never should stay still that’s somehow okay A broken road but it’s custom paved [Chorus] I’m so tired, tired of the day Tired of the games that we all have to play Tired of the promises fading away And the price that we pay just to make it okay I’m tired of running I’m tired of being afraid I’m tired of losing The moments I prayed would stay I’m so tired Tired of the day [Verse 2] The restful pillow Where your head is hardly laid The blistering sun Offering not an ounce of shade The empty promises In the salesman’s sway As he persuades The passing of another dollar made The trenches of bills In which you wade Another tomorrow Another debt to be paid The willers will and the wayers way And somewhere between What we need and what we crave We lose little pieces Of who we used to be Call it aged fade [Chorus] I’m so tired, tired of the day Tired of the games that we all have to play Tired of the promises fading away And the price that we pay just to make it okay I’m tired of running I’m tired of being afraid I’m tired of choosing I’m Tired of proving I’m Tired of moving I’m tired of losing The moments I prayed would stay I’m so tired Tired of the day [Bridge] Maybe I don’t want another crusade Maybe I don’t need another plan being made Maybe I just want somewhere quiet to lay My head down at night And not bargain tomorrow away With the doubts that invade That say what they say Let the world keep turning Let the dollar bills fall Let the characters play Their parts on the wall I’ve spent too long Trying to carry it all Tonight I just want To feel nothing at all [Final Chorus] I’m so tired, tired of the day Tired of the noise and the price that we pay Tired of pretending that everything’s okay When all I’ve been wanting Is somewhere to stay I’m tired of running I’m tired of being afraid I’m tired of wishing For moments that stayed So if tomorrow comes I’ll meet it halfway But tonight I’m just tired Tired of the day [Outro] I’d like to say, if I may… I’m tired of today.
