Lyrics
I'm too tired to be bored
I'm too bored to be tired
And the silence is so deafening
It's like picking at a sore
I'm too mental to go crazy
I'm too drunk to be pure
And my mind is playing tricks on me
And I can't sleep tonight
'Cause I'm so tired
I can't take it anymore
And with all the liars
Like a prisoner of war
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear it anymore
It's good to see you
But I really must admit
There's an odor in the air
And I think you look like shit
I can't stand from falling down
I'm too sick to throw up
Everyone keeps talking
And they can't shut the fuck up
Cuz I'm so tired
I can't take it anymore
And with all the liars
Like a prisoner of war
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear it anymore
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear about it
I don't wanna scream about it
I don't wanna hear it any more
I'm too bored to be tired
And the silence is so deafening
It's like picking at a sore
I'm too mental to go crazy
I'm too drunk to be pure
And my mind is playing tricks on me
And I can't sleep tonight
'Cause I'm so tired
I can't take it anymore
And with all the liars
Like a prisoner of war
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear it anymore
It's good to see you
But I really must admit
There's an odor in the air
And I think you look like shit
I can't stand from falling down
I'm too sick to throw up
Everyone keeps talking
And they can't shut the fuck up
Cuz I'm so tired
I can't take it anymore
And with all the liars
Like a prisoner of war
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear it anymore
I don't want your sympathy
I don't want your honesty
I just wanna get some peace of mind
It's only in my head
As I role over and play dead
I don't wanna hear about it
I don't wanna scream about it
I don't wanna hear it any more
Song Meaning
According to Billie Joe, this song is autobiographical, and details his state of mind before going to rehab in September 2012. The narrator is tired of everything and everyone, and has worked himself down into a deep rut of self-pity. He feels worthless, and doesn't know where to turn. He's not looking for pity or understanding, and doesn't want to accept any help from anyone; he got himself in this mess. All he wants is silence, and his own "peace of mind."
