Tired of Life
by Kate Shapter
Lyrics
Verse 1
Woke up with a heavy chest
Smile on, did my very best
Took the long way home again
Just to feel a little less bent
Pre-Chorus
I laugh like I’m fine, baby
But my heart’s on the floor
I keep saying “I’m okay”
Then I beg for a little more
Chorus
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
Tears on my face, still holding light
(still holding light)
If I’m falling apart, I do it in time
In my broken little world, I’m still alive
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
Verse 2
Bills on the table, pills in the sink
Phone full of messages I don’t wanna read
I paint on a shine for the people I love
Then I come home and I can’t speak enough
Pre-Chorus
I laugh like I’m fine, baby
But my heart’s on the floor
I keep saying “I’m okay”
Then I beg for a little more
Chorus
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
Tears on my face, still holding light
(still holding light)
If I’m falling apart, I do it in time
In my broken little world, I’m still alive
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
Bridge
Maybe tomorrow I’ll feel brand new
Maybe tonight I just feel used
So I spin in the dark
Till the hurt turns soft
And I sing through the crack in my armor
Final Chorus
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
Tears on my face, still holding light
(still holding light)
If I’m falling apart, I do it in time
In my broken little world, I’m still alive
I’m tired of life, but I dance tonight
(I dance tonight)
