lyrics

(too tired)

i did not become brave and i did not get better
no realisation, no epiphany, no moment on a bridge
i simply ran out of the energy it takes to hold a thing
in a closed hand for two years without letting go

too tired to hide (too tired)
that's the whole story, too tired
not courage, too tired
too tired

too tired to hide, too tired, too tired to hide
everybody wants a version where i chose the moment
too tired to hide, too tired, too tired to hide
i just could not carry it for one more evening

i think that's how most of it happens, actually. all of it.
people do not leap. people get tired and put things down
and then afterwards we all call it a decision. it wasn't.
(build, strings, tension climbing)

too tired to hide, too tired, too tired to hide
everybody wants a version where i chose the moment
too tired to hide, too tired, too tired to hide
i just could not carry it for one more evening

(...put it down)
