Sick of Me
Beartooth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I lost six of my years
Fighting fire with fear
And it's tearing me apart inside
I can point all the blame
Try to relieve the shame
But I think it's time I took back my life

'Cause I'm sick of the person I used to be
So stressed out, burned out, living in my agony
Hated all the words that they said to me
So I checked out, blacked out, wasted all those memories

I won't go back
I won't go back
I won't go back

'Cause I'm sick of you
I'm sick of me
I'm sick of the person I used to be

What a pointless mistake
Such a slap in the face
Gotta turn this thing around again
No more holding it back
No more bending the facts
I'll push myself, push myself
'Till I understand

'Cause I'm sick of the person I used to be
So stressed out, burned out, living in my agony
Hated all the words that they said to me
So I checked out, blacked out, wasted all those memories

I won't go back
I won't go back
I won't go back

'Cause I'm sick of you
I'm sick of me
I'm sick of the person I used to be

Save me from the tragedy
All the memories gone bad
Save me from the legacy
From my history
Just save me from my broken past
Just save me from my broken past

'Cause I'm sick of the person I used to be
So stressed out, burned out, living in my agony
Hated all the words that they said to me
So I checked out, blacked out, wasted all those memories

I won't go back
I won't go back
I won't go back

'Cause I'm sick of you




I'm sick of me
I'm sick of the person I used to be

Every single song, is so deep. I've never heard a band like this before. Consistent great music and continuously deep meaningful relevant songs. Thank you Beartooth.

Jake Meisling

Nothing More is the same way. They're also one of my favorites.

The Pug That Jumped Over The Moon

You should expand your musical horizons; not saying Beartooth is bad, but there is many bands with lyrics far, far deeper than them.
