I'M Tired of Talking, I'M Talking Real Tired

I'm tired of talking,
I'm talking real tired,
I need to fly away from this,
but I can't get up any higher,
there's some kind of barricade,
it feels like an obstacle course,
I need to silence the constant static,
but, I just can't figure out the source,
I got no elbow room,
no space, i need some vacancy,
I write to discredit the invalidation,
and all the other negativity,
but, I can't help but having ups and downs,
it's not great but I somehow manage,
so I write now, instead of talking,
I learned to use this as an advantage.
