Track 10 of Patrick Porter's ‘Goodbye Pork Pie Heart’ LP (2008)
lyrics
WORN OUT
(Lyrics by Patrick Porter, C. 2010)
Everything it moves with such speed
And I'm so slow, and I'm so worn out
I would like to believe
That I could still steal the show
But I'm so worn out
I'm so worn out
Well it's fun, I suppose, to go dancing at indie shows
But I'm so worn out
I'm so worn out
I see people walking by
They're so happy, they don't even have to try
And I'm so worn out
I'm so worn out
Well I know that you want me to come visit you
But I'm so worn out
On a bus or a train
But I'm afraid my strength is failing
I'm so worn out
I'm so worn out
Well there's those songs where they say
'I'm not what I used to be in the old days
I'm so worn out'
These are songs that I hate
But I'm afraid I'm forced to write one of my own
I'm so worn out
I'm so worn out
