Born Tired
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm sleepy
Aah, aah
Three deep breaths
Ten steps backwards
Going backwards
Now I'm switchin' lanes
Tire marks
On my heart
It don't beat the same, no
Rest your weary heart
Dry your teary eyes
I know you are scarred
And torn apart inside
Darlin', darlin', so am I, okay
'Cause, baby, I was born tired
Getting more tired
As time passes me by, yeah
I'ma need more fire
Way, way more fire
So pass that thing my way
La-da-da-ah
Ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha, yeah
It's been a long night
Long life, long time fighting
Let out a long sigh
Alright, why am I trying?
'Cause look at how far you have come
And look at all that you have going
Look at who have become
Baby, you gotta keep going
Ooh, rest your weary heart
Dry your teary eyes
I know you are scarred
And torn apart inside
Inside, inside, inside
Darlin', so am I, so am I
Baby, I was born tired
Getting more tired
As time passes me by
I'ma need more fire
Way, way more fire
So pass that thing my way
Ayy, I'm tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
Tired, but I'm fired up
La-da-da-ah (da-da-da)
Ha-ha-ha (ha-ha-ha)
Ha-ha-ha (ha-ha-ha-ha)
