Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm sleepy
[Verse 2]
Three deep breaths
Ten steps backwards
Going backwards
Now I'm switching lanes
Tire marks
On my heart
It don't beat the same
[Verse 3]
Well, rest your weary heart
Dry your teary eyes
I know you are scarred
And torn apart inside
Darlin', so am I
[Verse 4]
'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-ah-ha, ha-ha-ah-ha)
[Verse 5]
It's been a long night
Long life
Long time fighting
Let out a long sigh
Alright, why am I trying?
[Verse 6]
'Cause look at how far you have come
And look at all that you have going
Look at who you have become
Baby, you gotta keep goin'
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
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
(Ay)
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
[Verse 9]
(La-da-da-ah, ha-ha-ah-ha, ha-ha-ah-ha)
