Lyrics:
These days I say goodbye without opening my mouth
I just stare into the distance til you figure it out
‚Cause I feel as invested as a border guard
Who’s seen too many people leaving to take it too hard
I’m too tired to talk, I’m too tired to end the war
And I can’t seem to hold it together anymore
And my old haunts, each one’s a trigger and I’m holding the gun
Like a perp frozen in your headlights who forgot to run
And I’m overcome by the voices multiplying in the crowd
That’s been swelling in between my ears and growing frighteningly loud
I’m too tired to talk, I’m too tired to end the war
And I can’t seem to hold it together anymore
I’m too tired to start, I can’t bring you up to speed
There’s too many riptides in this ocean to proceed
And though I’m feeling fine
Roughly half the time
There’s a fatal flaw
In my heart’s design
I’m too tired to talk, I’m too tired to end the war
And I can’t seem to hold it together anymore
I’m too tired to start, I can’t bring you up to speed
There’s too many riptides in this ocean to proceed
There’s too many riptides in this ocean to proceed
