i been getting down
about all the run around
about all the pushing
and the standing in line
but like my friends say
you gotta do it anyways
and it just gets harder
when you're asked why

and i'm tired from all the weight
i'm tired of being strong
so won't you come and stay
and let me lay
down in your arms
down in your arms

i've been getting up early
i've been getting my coffee
i've been getting in the car and driving
all over town
talking to myself
while i'm taking off my seat belt
some people don't know
how to slow down

and i'm tired from all the weight
i'm tired of being strong
so won't you come and stay
and let me lay
down in your arms
down in your arms

i've got a troubled
a troubled mind
and you're got a heart
a heart so kind
so kind

so pack an overnight bag
don't worry about what you have
'cause if you need something
you can just use mine
and you don't have to promise
more than you want to
but if you want to see me
this would be a good time

'cause i'm tired from all the weight
i'm tired of being strong
so won't you come and stay
and let me lay
down in your arms
down in your arms
