Tired
Alan Walker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see those tears in your eyes
I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

Cold hands, red eyes
Packed your bags at midnight
They've been there for weeks
You don't know what goodbye means

Just roll up a cigarette
Just forget about this mess
Waiting on the sidelines
From the sidelines

I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

If your ghost pulls you up high
And it feels like you've lost who you are
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

And you whisper, I'm alright
But I see through your white lies
But these walls don't talk
And if they could, they'd say

Can't hide the secrets
You can't forget about this mess
I'm waiting on the sidelines
From the sidelines

I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

If your ghost pulls you up high
And it feels like you've lost who you are
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

I see those tears in your eyes
So helpless inside




There's no need to hide
Let me love you when your heart is tired

Line by Line Meaning

I see those tears in your eyes
I recognize that you're upset


I feel so helpless inside
I feel like I can't do anything to help you


Oh love, there's no need to hide
Don't feel like you need to conceal your emotions


Just let me love you when your heart is tired
Allow me to care for you when you're feeling worn out


Cold hands, red eyes
Your hands are cold, eyes are red from crying


Packed your bags at midnight
Left suddenly in the middle of the night


They've been there for weeks
The bags have been packed for a while


You don't know what goodbye means
You're uncertain of what it means to say goodbye


Just roll up a cigarette
Take a moment to calm down


Just forget about this mess
Try not to dwell on the problems right now


Waiting on the sidelines
I'm waiting to support you


From the sidelines
I'm patiently waiting for you to turn to me


If your ghost pulls you up high
If your past memories keep haunting you


And it feels like you've lost who you are
You don't feel like yourself anymore


My love, there's no need to hide
You don't need to keep your struggles a secret from me


Just let me love you when your heart is tired
Allow me to comfort you when you're feeling drained


And you whisper, I'm alright
You're saying you're fine but I know you're not


But I see through your white lies
I know you're not telling the truth


But these walls don't talk
The walls can't tell me what's really going on with you


And if they could, they'd say
If these walls could talk, they would reveal your struggles


Can't hide the secrets
You can't keep your struggles a secret forever


Just let me love you
Allow me to care for you


So helpless inside
I feel powerless to help you

This song hits harder when you know it's meaning,not just talking abt the lyrics, thr lyrics are obvious and they're also so touching but am talking about the vid clip it's part of thr movie and for anyone who wants to know the meaning of it:
Many years after the forming of the Walkers, a solar flare is approaching fast. Groups of Walkers around the world make devices that would scan bits of ruins, and, once united, construct them into a utopia for the survivors of the flare. They also build shield-like objects that, once enough things were scanned, would guide the walkers together. They bury these underground, where they'll be safe, and all sit together as the flare hits and they presumably die

Ya i cried ao hard while reading this also if anyone wants the full story of all his songs
1. Heading Home: The girl remembered her past she was part of the walkers but she's still searching for info about the past of the walkers and she picture them in mind based on the writings and drawings and picture in mind but she was remembering, including herself and the walker tribe members first thing she thought she was at the top of a tree and she was holding a telescope and saw raining meteors far away but she has time to tell the others so she jumped off the tree and run she followed the drones and found a tribe called walkers and saw other tribe members she was finding a walker mentor and she saw teaching people about the drones and training them, then she told the mentor the the training dismissed because of the meteor next she thought about from the book burying a case or time capsule that has walker equipments for someone and message for the future who excavate it for the walker survivor or some people and join the tribe they had fun in the night for their last day and using a red clothes in the very early morning (like 4 to 6 am) the mentor giving two walker drones before the meteor dropped after that they jumped into a hole to be safe including herself but she fully remembered the past and that she was part of the walkers and she was the only walker remembered that she was a walker, then the meteor dropped and destroyed the land, and the tribe members ended up dying

2. On My Way: A girl who has discovered her past life, she was joined the Walkers that she was finding something in the museum and saw a theory of the walkers and remembered something from the past and started asking people about how to find the 8 rock shape like in the Walker logo, The girl found out what is the shape of the 8 rocks from the books and paintings and she told everyone in her class but no one believed her, And she tried it with a glass in the rocks with laser and the girl told the Police,Construction workers and News reporter, The workers to cultivate the 8 rocks and they found first the small then the big Walker logo, Also the girl got famous from her discovery

3. Alone Pt.II: The girl who remembered the walkers got interviewed by reporters then keep she keep searching about the Walkers after that she got an answer she remembered something from her past life she took a painting of an Walker from a museum and spill special liquid and found a map in it she pictured it and go to the place that the map she remembered the country then she started to ask people in the country and one guy knows then they go to a cave and found a circle mossy logo similar to All Falls Down and Diamond Heart

4. Alone: A call is put out, and other Walkers from all over the internet join together in different groups around the world.

5.Sing Me to Sleep: Some person or entity guides a group of people together. They form a group called the Walkers. They all carry some object in their backpack, that when united, projects some pattern on to the ceiling. It's possibly a scanner, as the projection looks similar to those in "Darkside".

6. Tired: Many years after the forming of the Walkers, a solar flare is approaching fast. Groups of Walkers around the world make devices that would scan bits of ruins, and, once united, construct them into a utopia for the survivors of the flare. They also build shield-like objects that, once enough things were scanned, would guide the walkers together. They bury these underground, where they'll be safe, and all sit together as the flare hits and they presumably die.

7. Faded: One of the Walkers who survived is trying to cope with the new world after the flare. He's completely alone and trying to find a place that isn't in ruins because of the flare, guided by a picture he carries of a lovely rural house. He travels a long way, hoping this house will be his salvation, but when he gets there, it's destroyed like everything else.

8. All Falls down: An unknown amount of time later, a group of teenagers, who presumably grew up in this post-apoplectic world, dig up one of the safes with the scanners, but don't know what to do with them. In the night, a group of older people, presumably some of the Walkers who buried the scanners in the first place, come and set something up that shows them how to use them.

9. Darkside: The group of older Walkers is scanning a monument of some sort, and the teenagers observe them doing it from afar. They are inspired, and after fiddling with the scanners a bit, go and scan another monument. Finally the Walkers officially meet on a mountaintop.

10. Diamond Heart: Different groups of Walkers discover these scanners and, soon, the shields start showing glimpses of what other scanners are scanning. The scanners proceed to guide the walkers together once again, and they finally build their utopia

Alan Walker - Tired Lyrics
[Intro]
I see those tears in your eyes
I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

[Verse 1]
Cold hands, red eyes
Packed your bags at midnight
They've been there for weeks
I don't what came by me

[Pre-Chorus]
Just roll up a cigarette
Just forget about this mess
Been waiting on the sidelines
From the sidelines

[Chorus]
I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
If your ghost pulls you up high
And it feels like you've lost who you are
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

[Verse 2]
When you whisper, I'm alright
But I see through your white lies
But these walls don’t talk
And if they could, they’d say

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't hide the secrets
You can't forget about this mess
I'm waiting on the sidelines
From the sidelines

[Chorus]
I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
If your ghost pulls you up high
And it feels like you've lost who you are
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired

You don't know what goodbye means

Been waiting on the sidelines
From the sidelines

[Chorus]
I see those tears in your eyes
And I feel so helpless inside
Oh love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
If your ghost pulls you apart
And it feels like you've lost who you are
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you
Just let me love you

And I feel so helpless inside
My love, there's no need to hide
Just let me love you when your heart is tired
