The Astronaut Tapes - Tired Lyrics

Step inside my shoes for a single day
I'd hate to see you take me all wrong
I'm nice if we can get along
At least that's what I like to say
Stay with me if you have a minute
My brain is ready for the picking
I'll let you know if it's not sticking
You have to want it and really be in it

Oh, can I say

I'm so tired, it's what you do when they aren't looking but
I'm so tired taking things that aren't mine
I'm so tired saying what I don't mean but never saying that
I'm so tired leaving everything behind

It's takes time to do anything perfect
10,000 hours would make anyone break
So try to think hard through the headache
In the end you'll see I'm worth it
Take a short walk on the bayside
Maybe the breeze will let you in
My personality's under my skin
But I'm still not sure if I should let you inside

Oh, can I say

I'm so tired, it's what you do when they aren't looking but
I'm so tired taking things that aren't mine
I'm so tired saying what I don't mean but never saying that
I'm so tired leaving everything behind
Never remembering why I'm still

Here
Here
Here
Here, but I'm still
Here
Here
Here
Here, and I'm still
Tired
Tired
Tired
Tired, but it's okay being
Tired
Tired
Tired
Tired, as long I still have the nerve to stick around

Take a long look at your friends
They can say so much about you
Go on, there is still so much to do
Until I see you again
