[Verse 1]
Woke up on the couch again
Half-warm beer and a dead-end friend
Phone full of “you up?” that I never send
Prayin’ for a tomorrow I can’t pretend
Burnt-out brakes on a downhill road
White-knuckle hands but I ain’t got control
Mama keeps callin’
Says “son
Come home”
But I been married to the weight I hold
[Chorus]
I’m tired of being tired
Always runnin’ on empty
Wired
Like a fuse that’s already blown
I’m screaming in a crowd
But I feel alone
I’m tired of being tired
Of always crashin’ where the fire is higher
I’m worn down deep in my bones
I’m tired of feeling like I ain’t in control
[Verse 2]
I joke with the boys
Say I’m doin’ fine
Laugh too loud just to pass the time
But the mirror don’t lie when I meet those eyes
There’s a storm in a man wearin’ cheap disguise
Diet is coffee
Cheap smoke
Regret
Betting on a future I ain’t cashed yet
Heart says stay
But my head says go
I keep chasin’ every high that leaves me low
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Every “one more shot”
Every “one more night”
Every “one last time”
Just another lost fight
[voice cracks]
I don’t want to be the wreck
Everybody comes to see
I just want to wake up once
And feel like I’m drivin’ me
[crescendo]
[Chorus]
