Lana Del Rey - Tired of Singing the Blues lyrics

rate me

You know sometimes I think God

Is playing a little game with me

Looking down from heaven, laughing

Tryina see how much I can take

Because the way things go, it’s like a joke

Nobody’s had more shots at the moon and missed than me

It’s like I got my life stuck, stuck on rewind

Trying to makes something of myself, life’s got something else in mind

I’m fighting a losing game and I'm biding my time

You won’t be my man, do I understand, no, stop

I don't want to hear another word about your “why not's”, I bought

Your bullshit it all before now you trying to sell me more, babe

Man who makes a beast out of himself got nothing to lose

Sold my soul long ago, nothing left to choose

I'm tired, tired of singing the blues

I'm tired

I'm walking down the streets, you wouldn't know what I was thinking

It's just another white girl day, hey, ribbons in my hair, and I am sinking down

A double life, a sordid past, and I am drinking now

I want to be bad

You say you were glad to see me shut up

I don't want to know another thing you think you know about me

I'm not who you think I am, smiling but I ain't happy

A man who makes a beast out of himself got nothing to lose

Sold my soul long ago, nothing I can choose

I'm tired, tired of singing the blues

I'm tired

Oh, my soul forgot, I can’t turn off my mind

It’s like a ticking time bomb trying to kill me from inside

I mean day and night

Is there no remedy for memory?

I've felt this way before, I’ve known the depths of desperation

My boyfriend says I'm like an old movie star with loneliness as my occupation

I know that he's right but I don't care tonight

I want to be bad, I want to be bad, I can’t stop

I keep running around the same town, knocking you down, I'm fucked

How can I get out when there's nowhere to go for miles around

A man who makes a beast out of himself got nothing to lose

Sold my soul long ago, nothing I can choose

I'm tired, tired of singing the blues

I'm tired
