I came up with what was a sketch for a song and I asked Jay if he'd like to write some lyrics for it. He not only wrote the lyrics, he also came up with some sterling vocals which brought the song to life. What a decent chap!
Thank you for listening!
Lyrics, all vocals composed and performed by Jay Lamothe (HDA)

So Tired HDA 2010
V1
How long, can this pace continue,
Making time for something more, but more is just a lost intention
Won't wait, my life has no connection,
To the things that matter most, but what matters most the greatest question.
CH1
So tired and I need some sleep, it's only when I dream that I can see the prize
So dire yet I'm digging deep, gonna test the theory, if I can arrive, to the end alive
V2
Somehow, I'm gonna make a difference,
Taking all they're loading on, never saying no won't make it
Pain sits, buried not forgotten,
How the hell am I holding on, as a tattered wire unwinds don't shake it
CH2
So tired and I need some sleep, it's only when I dream that I can see the prize
So dire yet I'm digging deep, gonna test the theory, if I can arrive, to the end alive
BRIDGE
To the end alive....
V3
Hold strong, just a wasted virtue,
Listen to the things I state, but never match my disposition
Escape, the chains of lost conviction,
Do it now or be too late, cuz comfort is the final mission
CH2
So tired and I need some sleep, it's only when I dream that I can see the prize
So dire yet I'm digging deep, gonna test the theory, if I can arrive, to the end alive
