TIRED

 

Tired


Screaming, yelling, and rolling our eyes
Feeling the rage continue to rise
I never thought that we would end up like this
Throwing daggers at one another instead of a kiss

We started out so happy, when everything was brand new
Now sometimes I can't even stand the very sight of you
I really don't want to live like this anymore
But fear is stopping me from walking out that door

Twenty one years to some is a lifetime
That I've dedicated to you, to us, and I ask myself why
Just to end up alone and out in the cold
Well I've got news for you, that's not how it will go

I'm a phenomenal woman, courageous and strong
And with God on my side, I know I can't go wrong
The road might be rough, and may be and uphill climb
But it will be worth the trouble just to have a peace of mind

I can't take much more, I'm so ready to quit
If you don't make some changes, you can have all this shit
The house, the car, and all of these damn bills
Where I was afraid before, God has now given me the will

I'm tired of being tired, and crying all night long
I'm ready for my sunny days, I'm ready to move on
For the true ones who are happy for me, can then wish me well
And the perpetrators who are not, can kiss my ass and go to hell
