I'm too tired and too weak From carrying all these worries About things that may go wrong Or things that never happened at all I only have the will to take steady steps Because my conquered failures hold me up I'm too tired and too weak I've lost my will to even breathe Due to all the useless talking I do And the inhaling of nothing I retain I only now have the will to exhale All the sweet moans I've swallowed whole I'm too tired and too weak To find the will to live the mundane And excite flames from ashes as before Or feed from the dull light in the dark I only now continue this tired heartbeat Because someone out there is feeding it life

Too Tired
I'm too tired and too weak From carrying all these worries About things that may go wrong Or things that never happened at all I only have the will to take steady steps Because my conquered failures hold me up I'm too tired and too weak I've lost my will to even breathe Due to all the useless talking I do And the inhaling of nothing I retain I only now have the will to exhale All the sweet moans I've swallowed whole I'm too tired and too weak To find the will to live the mundane And excite flames from ashes as before Or feed from the dull light in the dark I only now continue this tired heartbeat Because someone out there is feeding it life
