- Dying Slowly Lyrics / with translationsI've got memories
I keep them away from me
They won't behave
Won't be what I want 'em to be
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So many squandered moments
So much wasted time
So busy chasing dreams
I left myself behind
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
These worms, darling
They're nibbling away at me
They go at it when I'm sleeping
Won't let me get to my feet
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting
If I could find the words to explain this feeling
Then I would shout them out
If I could find out all this, what's inside me
I would shout it out
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
It seemed better than shouting it out
I make some coffee
Pull on that new pair of pants
I can get so far off
The feeling just falls away
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
I'm just tired, baby
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, baby
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
I keep them away from me
They won't behave
Won't be what I want 'em to be
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So many squandered moments
So much wasted time
So busy chasing dreams
I left myself behind
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
These worms, darling
They're nibbling away at me
They go at it when I'm sleeping
Won't let me get to my feet
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
If I could find the words to explain this feeling
Then I would shout them out
If I could find out all this, what's inside me
I would shout it out
So this dying slowly
It seemed better than shooting myself
This dying slowly
It seemed better than shouting it out
I make some coffee
Pull on that new pair of pants
I can get so far off
The feeling just falls away
I've seen it all and it's all done
I've been with everyone and no one
I'm just tired, baby
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, baby
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
I just need to lay down
I'm just tired, darling
