Burnout

from On the Air by Struwwelpeter

/

lyrics

I'm feeling normal again
I'm stealing a gentle breeze
And I might just call a friend
I might just do as I please

Where am I supposed to go?
I've made this rut quite the home
Where am I supposed to go?

Learn to say 'no'...

I'm tired but I'm wide awake
Inspired but I've got no flow
I'd give up for my own sake
But where would I even go

'Cause this is no solution
I gotta stop
I need my resolution
I'm closing shop

Burning out
Wish that I could shout
But I keep it bottled in
I slap on that fake grin
On my own
Better off alone
I can get this done
And show it off to no-one

Learned my place
No horse in the race
And I'm never gonna see
You manage without me
This drip-feed
Gives me what I need
And I'm making do
Without approval from you

You sold me a clump of shit
And told me that it was gold
I'll stand up and finally quit
Then realise I got old

Put that feeling away
Put a pin in it today
Put that feeling away

I'm afraid that I'm afraid to say I'm afraid
