I’m so tired of smiling all the time
And feigning happiness
and lying to myself

I pretend that I’m happy
I pretend I’m not lonely
I pretend not to care
That you pretend that you care

I’m so tired of going through the motions
And feigning my success
You call this living?

You ask me how I am
like you care
You ask me how I’ve been.
Like you care

I’m so tired of waking up each morning
And faking all the rest
For someone else’s sake

‘cause when I show on the outside
how I feel on the inside
everyone wants to talk about
how I should talk it out
and I’m not listening

‘Cause talking makes me angry
and angry makes me sorry
and sorry makes me tired
and I’m so tired

You ask me how I am
like you care
You ask me how I’ve been.
Like you care

I pretend that I’m happy
I pretend I’m not lonely
I pretend not to care
That you pretend that you care

I’m so tired and I’m falling asleep
I’m so tired and I’m feeling beat
I’m so tired of feigning life
I’m so tired
I’m so tired
