You're taking water, you're losing shape
You're wide asleep, wide asleep and fast awake
You read, you don't understand what you're reading
You pray, you can't believe what you're hearing
You've got to smile
You've got to smile with it out of shape
You can forgive yourself the time
All the time in the world but not the space
You're underestimated and you're overboard
In the very moments you should be
You don't get angry anymore
Just tired of saying something and tired from doing nothing
You keep taking water and pa**ing faith
Looking like a heap while you're standing straight
Tired from doing nothing
You play for someone's daughter, sincere and deep
After waiting out the past five hours
And they're cruel enough to make you appear
Polite and not take it personally
When you're tired, tired of saying something
