about

The idea behind 'Tired' was born on a long train journey to Mumbai in the intense heat.

The lyrics were written with inspiration taken from Rupi Kaur's poetry, where the concept of being 'fire' represents the realisation of inner strength following a toxic relationship.

lyrics

As I lay here so tired
But still so awake

Sitting in muddy fields of hope
Black skies of a tapestry
dreaming of you and me oh

Coz I'm the fire, I'm the flame
I'm the fire
I'm the flame
I'm the fire
I'm the flame

As I lay here so tired
But still so awake

As I lay here so tired
But still so awake

Going on to see your sorry soul
Lose sight of your mind
and let it all go
You'll look back and think of me

Coz I'm the fire, I'm the flame
I'm the fire
I'm the flame
I'm the fire
I'm the flame

As I lay here so tired
But still so awake

Coz I'm the fire, I'm the flame
I'm not the one
the one to blame

I'm the fire, I'm the flame
I'm not the one
the one to blame

I'm the fire
I'm the flame

Don't rain
Don't rain
Don't rain
Don't rain
Don't rain.
