Tired - Lyrics Critique

by Lane
(LA)

okay this one is not a typical song it doesnt really have a structure but it means alot...

Tired

My eyes are open under these sheets,
My body feels completely numb.
Air moves in and out of my mouth,
Yet i feel like i havent taken a breath in days.
My heart keeps beating,
Yet i havent felt alive for some time.
Im laying here wondering if this is really real,
Or if its all in my mind.
As far as i can see i wont be getting any rest
tonight

cus im tired of being the one to lean on
i need someone to lean on, someone to cry to,
someone to take care of this feeling
inside me
cus im tired, im tired of having to be the happy
one
im tired of being the one to fall back on,
when i need it more
im tired.


I try to block out the pain,
The pain of the ones i love,
The pain thats tearing us apart.
But i cant.
Tears fall from my eyes before i even realize im
crying

I finally drift away,
but before i do a scream calls my name.
Its a call for help,
But im not helping anyone tonight,
Not ever again,
I just cant help it.
I guess im just not strong enough this time
But its okay, i dont mind
Id rather just get some shut eye
It doesnt matter to me any more

cus im tired of being the one to lean on
i need someone to lean on, someone to cry to,
someone to take care of this feeling
inside me
cus im tired, im tired of having to be the happy
one
im tired of being the one to fall back on,
when i need it more
im tired.

really deep can feel that it comes from a place inside. Maybe shorten it a little and go back thru for any edtiting for repetition's

But good job.

i can really feel the emotion. try maybe taking out the first chorus or something to make it a little shorter but other than that good work.

by: andrew
