I've got to drag myself into action 'Cause I'm so tired of struggling Wake up in the morning, alone in my bed And I just want to go back to sleep But I've got to go forward And I feel so tired, tired of struggling And I feel so weary that I just want to lay down and die But I've got to drag myself into action 'Cause I'm so tired of struggling And late in the evening, after walking home My house is empty and my bed is cold And I feel so tired, tired of struggling And I feel so weary that I just want to lay down and die Some tell me to surrender and take a nine-to-five But I'd rather die trying Than be dead alive
