Joseph Arthur - Exhausted (Live at the Gypsy Tea Room)



[Verse 1]
I never sleep
I been awake for what feels like a year
'cause when I dream
My mind it puts a face
To each one of my fears

[Chorus]
I'm exhausted by my imagination
I close my eyes
But I could still see the pain on your face
It's no disguise
You put your heart and soul on a plate
I'm exhausted by my imagination
These walls are talking but I'm hallucinating
Beneath the wheel I cannot slow it's rotation down
Down
Down on my head

[Verse 2]
I got to get away from here
But there's nowhere I can go
Everyone I recognize looks at me like I'm a ghost
Walking down these dire streets
I thought I heard you call my name
But it was only in my mind
You were never there at all
[Bridge]
Up in the sky
The clouds are dirty so soon it will rain
I lost my mind
After I heard you were insane

[Chorus]
I'm a victim of my imagination
These walls are talking but I'm hallucinating
Beneath the wheel that could not slow it's rotation down
Down
Down on my finger

[Verse 3]
I got to get away from here
But there's nowhere I can go
Everyone I recognize
Looks at me like I'm a ghost
Walking down these dying streets
I thought I heard you call my name
But it was only in my mind
You were never there at all

[Outro]
All, all, all
