lyrics

Verse:
Theres a darkness inside, don't want to bring you down, bring you down.
but i've fallen out of line, when negativity cries, yes it cries.
When you're pinned against a wall, with no where to go but outside, these lips of mine.

Chorus:
i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry. All the time, i'm not coping very well, i just make it hard to tell.
and I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of these alibis.

Verse 2:
When you're pinned against a wall, with nowhere to go but outside, these lips of mine.
When you're fighting against it all, and negativity cries, with every word you make.
When you're tired of being tired, i'm tired of being tired, its all you take.
When you open up to some, you're words have no worth, so let it out.

Chorus 2:
i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry. All the time, i'm not coping very well, i just make it hard to tell.
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of these alibis or excuses of mine for my fractured state of mind.
i'm sorry, im sorry, im sorry. All the time, i'm not coping very well, i just make it hard to tell.
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired of these alibis.

Outro:
Look at the wall, I feel nothing, nothing.
Look at them all, I don't know, I don't know.
