about

When the Black Dog visits.

lyrics

And all too soon I found
that I had given all I had to give.
I was always pleased to please you.
To play the extra in your costume dramas.
Ears filled with confessions
my shoulders soaked in tears.
But now the rock you built your dreams upon
is crumbling into sand.

I'm tired...

I'd always tried to be the better man.
My cheek turned so often that my head was in a spin.
Between the 'you's and the 'them's
I found I had no room for me!
I've been a casket for your troubles.
I've been a cage to hold your fears.
But now my cup it runneth over.
Your knight in shining armour turns to rust.

I'm tired...

So tired...

"To die, to sleep. And in that sleep what dreams may come..."
