I GOT TIRED
I got tired!
The same old music turned me astray
And now I walk away like nothing happened.
Tired of the same name always when there are varieties to chose from.
Tired of sitting and planting one tree when I could've planted a whole forest.
I got tired!
The same old look made me exhausted,
I gave up and I did the walk
Cause I knew how being chased away felt like.
Yes I got tired!
Tired of waiting patience to pay me
Yet on the ground patience could not be located
You see, I got tired!
That explains why my pens ink rarely...
Cause the book got tired of the same old tears
And now the mind just couldn't trace how to get up.
I got tired!
Tired of you and I pretending to be in love
When all we wanna do is throw each other away.
I just couldn't wait to be thrown out
I just got tired!
I'm sure if you were in my shoes, you would understand
How much tired one can get just to give up the fight!
