It's getting to the point

Where i no longer know

Exactly what i want or need

A new disaster threatens

Every day that i stay here with you

Trying to start a fire

Where there used to be a fire burning

Here in the ashes of my heart

And all you really need

Is that i give you everything

I used to give you

Back when giving everything was easy

Yesterday i loved you

Now i'm trying to start a fire

Where there used to be a fire burning

Here in the ashes of my heart



I'm sick and tired

Of being sick and tired

We both admit we're losing hope

I love you but i don't suppose

It really makes a difference if i say



It's getting to the point

Where i now disregard the feelings

That you share

I know that you deserve much better

Than this fumbling cartoon character

Trying to start a fire

Where there used to be a fire burning

Here in the ashes of heart



I'm sick and tired

Of being sick and tired

We both admit we're losing hope

I love you but i don't suppose

It really makes a difference if i say



I don't know what to feel now

There's nothing left that's real now

Tell me -

We fell in love together

Spent so many years together

Why must we fall out of love alone?



It's getting to the point

Where i no longer know

Exactly what i want or need

This hurricane's inside me

And i'm sorry but i can't go on

Trying to start a fire

Where there used to be a fire burning

Here in the ashes of my heart



I'm sick and tired

Of being sick and tired

So damn sick of all this
