We Are Tired
we fight every day
we try hard every day
but no matter how hard we do
we always fail
and no one is there to understand us
we are tired
they will not understand
the pain we run with
the sadness and sorrow
that sleep in our heart
we die every day
we are tired
they will never stop using us
even when they know it hurts
they keep going
they don't care
even God is busy for us
we are tired
we smile in public
laugh with them
but cry in the night
and scream inside
so we don't wake anyone
we are tired
we try hard to live
but life doesn't like us
we try as we can
but nothing is coming out of it
we seriously try again but nothing still
we are tired
we don't hate them
we don't blame them
we forgive them
we envy them
but!
we are tired
