Song I wrote a while back


One more tired day of living

One more lonesome day of giving

All of me with none of you returned

One more saddened dying evening

One more mad-crazed lying thieving,

Day of giving always being burned

 

One more lost and loosing moment

One more day that's not so well spent

Chasing dreams that always run away

One more day filled with no event

One more moment caught in the rent

Of my heart that you have torn away

 

I'm getting tired of fighting

Getting tired breathing

I'm getting tired living

For myself

I'm getting tired of choosing

Getting tired of loosing

I'm getting tired letting

Life run itself

 

One more chance to up and fight

One more chance to chose what's right

Instead of waiting for my time to come

One more day I'm filled with fright

One more moment loosing sight

Of the things that I need to get done

 

I'm getting tired of fighting

Getting tired breathing

I'm getting tired living

For myself

I'm getting tired of choosing

Getting tired of loosing

I'm getting tired letting

Life run itself

 

So I'll stand up

And raise my arm

I'll cry aloud

Shout out alarm

 

I'm ready now

To stand strong

I will hold firm

And sing this song

 

The time has come

I'm ready now, to be free

 

No more nights of senseless crying

No more times of ceaseless lying

About the truth, this is my decree

No more days to feel like dying

No more times when I'll stop trying

To live my life for something more than me

 

So I'll stand up

And raise my arm

I'll cry aloud

Shout out alarm

 

I'm ready now

To stand strong

I will hold firm

And sing this song

 

The time has come

I'm ready now, to be free
