I'M So Tired

I’m so tired my mind goes on the blink Although I find myself my life is on the brink So I get myself up and fix myself a drink Not everything is exactly as you would think. I’m so tired of the way that things always go I think that I am learning yet see that I don’t know So I plant another seed and hope that it shall grow My life plays before me like a picture show. I’m so tired I think I need some sleep I’ve tried everything maybe I will count some sheep I try to swim to shore but the water got to deep The rain begins to fall as if the angels’ weep. I’m so tired but I have so much to do I try to break away but my mind is set on you I see inside my heart and hope that it is true It; all becomes tarnished by all that we’ve been through. I’m so tired I think I’ll get some rest I don’t always do so well I guess I should confess I gather up the pieces and then try to fix the mess I just wanted more but settled for a little less.
