First Verse:

I’m lying down on my bed
All I want to do is sleep and rest
Tired of the same old insanity
I’m staring up above and I’m feeling drowsy

Things are crazy everyday
If only I could hide myself from the world and run away
Why do terrible things have to replay?
Please tell me that there will be happiness someday

CHORUS:

I’m alone and I’m feeling scared
People are selfish and they don’t really care
If they only feel the pain I’m feeling now
They’ll probably think about it and care somehow
If only they can see what I really became
Baby I’m just tired of the same old game

Second Verse:

Do they ever wonder what I’m going through?
It’s so tough for me and that’s the whole painful truth
Tell me that there’s a way to escape this life
I’m not even living; I’m just trying to survive

Deep inside me, there lies the lonely truth
There’s more to me than what people see, and that’s one thing I wish they all knew about me
I wish all my problems would just disappear
I care about myself and I don’t want any more tears

-REPEAT CHORUS-

I’m listening to the voices inside my head
Should I tell them how I feel or should I keep them instead?
What should I do now?
What should I say now?
What should I say now?... Oh oh…

-REPEAT CHORUS-

I’m trying my whole life
I’ve covering the whole time
Just so I can show them how tough I am, but baby… I’m tired of the same old game...

The author's comments:
This is actually a song sW I wrote for my best friend. It's not dedicated for her, but it's what she feels. She always tells me her problems and I decided to write a song that describes her feelings.

When you read the "author's comments," you will notice that it has "sW" Please just ignore that, it was a mistake.
