Too Tired To Care

Been sittin' on this porch now

till the sun sets against the sky

the hues of my life splash around me

painted before my eyes

A canvas of passion, and sorrow

with layers of a broken spirit

becomes the most beautiful painting

when the end is drifting near it

I've lived through fearful times

cried an ocean of bitter tears

found God when I wasn't looking

now I'm just too tired to care

I've lived for years with the boggy man

always pullin' the covers off me

I learned to stop fighting back

and let my troubled soul fly free

Now all the colors twirl

as the sun slips on a dare

darkness swirls around me now

but I'm too tired to care

When you're too tired to care

life becomes almost surreal

and the colors blend with a peaceful warmth

that you can almost feel

I lean back and close my eyes

and let the wind blow through my hair

and feel my soul set sail

as I slip into thin air
