Tired of all the lies that people say
How mankind has come so far to only loose our way
I'm tired of the mask everybody wears
How we always take but never share
I'm tired of having hope in another
How they say they love you, but chose another
I'm tired of caring for others who don't even stay
How my friends get mad and tell me I'm in their way
I'm tired of saying if I wait  it will get better
I'm tired of throwing away every love letter
I'm tired of silencing my heart
How I beg to be cold, but I can't play the part

How I'm sick of staying up late
Demons on the prowl while my heart is bait
How I'm sick of thinking wanting love is weak
Silent tears run down my cheeks
How I'm sick of  a selfish world with evil desires
Egotistical maniacs who swear they aren't liars
How I'm sick of fighting myself while I survive
I'm living but I never feel alive.
