Tired
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Weary Heart in Sprung Monkey's 'Tired'
Lyrics
Whose thorn will I pull today
Reflecting on the challenges and difficulties faced daily
And whose embrace will leave me trembling
Contemplating the impact of a significant, emotional encounter
And whose kind words will pierce right through me
Anticipating the potential hurtful impact of someone's words
And whose rejection will deem me a failure
Fearing the consequences of rejection and the associated feelings of failure
I need a pill to sleep at night, I need a pill to sleep at night
Expressing reliance on pills to cope with insomnia and a plea not to be disturbed during sleep
I need a pill to sleep at night
-So please don't try and wake me, so please don't try and wake me
-Will anything but maybes infect my ears
Questioning whether certainty or uncertainty will dominate
I'd kill for you but you don't care
Expressing a willingness to go to extremes for someone who appears indifferent
I'm cold and I'm hollow the barrel of a gun
Feeling emotionally numb, using metaphorical imagery of a gun
The sweet sound of forgiveness I forgive no one
Rejecting the idea of forgiveness, holding onto grievances
I need a pill to sleep at night, I need a pill to sleep at night
Reiterating the reliance on pills for sleep and a plea not to disrupt it
I need a pill to sleep at night
-So please don't try and wake me
-Cause I'm tired
Expressing exhaustion and weariness
I'm tired
-I'm tired
-So please don't try and wake me
Repeating the plea not to be disturbed due to fatigue
So please don't try and wake me
-So please don't try and wake me
-I'll try to breathe, breathe in the air of conviction to start what I finished
Attempting to find motivation and determination
To end at the beginning
Reflecting on the cyclical nature of challenges and resolutions
The tracks of recovery have led to discovery
Highlighting the progress made in recovery and self-discovery
The tracks of recovery have led to discovery
-And I found out that I tried, and I found out that I tried
Realizing efforts made and the desire not to leave unfinished business
And I found out that I tried
-And I can't die with that
-I need a pill to sleep at night, I need a pill to sleep at night
Expressing continued reliance on pills for sleep
I need a pill to sleep at night
-So please don't try and wake me
-Cause I'm tired
Repeating the state of tiredness and the plea not to be disturbed
I'm tired
-I'm tired
-I'm tired
-So please don't try and wake me
-So please don't try and wake me
-So please don't try and wake me
Final plea to avoid interruption during sleep due to exhaustion
