I'm on the edge, shrinking back from the ledge Looking out my window, down upon my heritage Strip malls, thin walls, people paralyzed beneath the sun Why me, why now? I see the dirty millions and I try to survive somehow... Got no reasons, got no needs I hear gunshots, I hear screams What can you do to me, what can you say? I used to be alive but I threw it all away I used to have problems, I used to live a lie I've seen the sidewalk bleed And I watched the mother cry I used to have a mind, I used to wonder why But now I go from day to day and wait around to die... ...like he did (X4) 10: Tired I'm so tired of myself I'm so tired in my sleep I'm so tired of my lies I'm so tired of all the secrets I keep I'm so tired of looking inside myself Trying to find something I'm tired... so tired... And I know I need something Because the grind is just burning me out And I don't wanna have to hurt one of them But I'll do it 'cause I'm tired... Real tired... I'm so tired of all the things that I hear I'm tired of the things that I fear I've never seen the end so clear And I'm tired... real tired 'cause I know I need something... Something, wanna just this to keep me sticking around But I'll do it... 'cause I'm getting real tired... 'cause I know I need something... You want just this... The grind is wearing me down And I don't wanna kill one of these walking insects But I'll do it...
