Lyrics

Ugh
I’m on my own
In the corner
With these people
I don’t know somehow

It’s like a heavy situation
I can’t drink
My way
Out of it

Now these ice ain’t breaking
So it’s melting in my drink
Where the taste is falling
Like your insincerity

Lately I just feel so tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t like nobody and
Nobody likes me

I’m tired
Of the peacock speech
I don’t like nobody and
nobody likes me

I’m tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t think I'm ready
For the cliché speech

I’m tired
but I can’t explain
Ugh

Now people walk
In and out
Anytime
As if i’m a door

It’s like we’re making
All these strangers
Out of friends
And maybe be more

Now these ice ain’t breaking
So it’s melting in my drink

Lately I just feel so tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t like nobody and
Nobody likes me

I’m tired
Of the peacock speech
I don’t like nobody and
nobody likes me

I’m tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t think I'm ready
For the cliché speech

I’m tired
but I can’t explain
Ugh

(Oh, I’m not sleepy)
(Oh, I need some space)

Now these ice ain’t breaking
So it’s melting in my drink
(Oh, I’m not sleepy)
Where the taste is falling
Like your insincerity

Lately I just feel so tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t like nobody and
Nobody likes me

I’m tired
Of the peacock speech
I don’t like nobody and
nobody likes me

I’m tired
Not because of my sleep
I don’t think I'm ready
For the cliché speech

I’m tired
but I can’t explain
Ugh

I really connect with the idea of being a social introvert- we love getting to know people, but it takes so much out of us. So we better get to the real meat of things! Rather than settle for the surface lol

[prem_vk]

that little girl from Singapore is gonna be a big star very soon🙃

[shishtartingz]

Omg I didn’t know your no auto tune voice is so so beautiful, you basically sound the same even without the effects! Damn I thought you used heavy autotune! You are so talented omg! Your techniques are so clean! I think it is time for me to (*≧∀≦*)

[qieenalubya]

many people think its autotune but no! it is no. your voice literally make me goosebump😳

[NF]

Your voice in Tired is so so so suitable. It performs the lyrics perfectly. Because of this song, I addicted in your voice and songs badly. 😂

[lunedmarina]

You should release a acoustic version of tired, your voice is really beautiful. Anyways I can really relate to feeling tired all the time, university life haha.

[conantan]

When listening to the song, I geniunely thought it was auto-tune that made your voice so good.

Now... I'm stunned.

You are going to be someone important one day. Scratch that, you already are.

[willvaya]

thoughtful way to describe introverts, couldn't have said it any better :)

[frostwindsgaming]

That voice, what the hell, damn, really did not expect it to sound just like in the song, your voice "bumps" change I tought were autotunes in the song but you do them yourself D:!

[loraineevesales]

I’m ambiverted but my best friend is introverted. This song gives me a glimpse of what’s in it to be in her shoes whenever we have a get together with my friends or a party. She’ll always be the first to leave cause she feels socially awkward with others

[hennaluisa]

I love how relatable this song is. As an introvert myself I think I was able to feel more like understand what you are talking about and what you mean with it. Thanks for blessing us with that song.I always gear it on my way to school in order to mentally prepare myself for whats head of me, is that weird? Lmao. I feel like an alien sometimes... (gosh i am not making sense sorry. 😅)

[ykjericho]

Jasmine Sokko's voice is amazing even without music playing in the background that she can literally conduct an acapella on her own. Totally amazing and those pearlie whites are shiny as She also can drag the "hook" in her song lines and lyrics and wow, I am really blown away!

[lovelybubbly]

I'm not really an introvert, but I feel related to this song. I mean I too have days where I just don't like being with people.

[kittyacedira]

The first song that introduce me to Jasmine's world 🥰

[acutecatishere]

her Voice is Like a Drug for me♥ it keeps me calm when i traveling while listening to her songs. btw all of your song is Beyond amazing 😍

[MysterioxMusik]

When you can't get a genius interview but your still a legend and icon.

[alicethen]

So cute! You remind me of my sister who is an introvert and a creative who is always feeling tired due to social situation

[TheDoctorReborn]

Honestly with the whole quarantine and social distancing thing going on right now I feel more comfortable. Sometimes I do get lonely and feel I need to connect with someone but when I do get the courage to attempt its usually the wrong people that appear. That can leave a scar on a person and with that I become the hermit I am. The song you wrote has its own personal meaning to me. Like "peacock speech" it makes me think about the social media warriors that are always fighting to be on top or "right" and i do get tired of that. Its something that has bled out into real life as I was growing up being the nerd and outcast I was always different than other kids or even adults as I became older. I am perfectly happy and sad sitting in my safe place. Happy that I do not have to deal with the people that are not real, and sad that I cant find the connection that is real. Keep making music and I will keep feeling your stories. Makes my four walls less lonely. Thank you.

[eugenewong]

I think being an introvert is quite advantageous! especially when you have your world of your own constantly running about, without people around you being aware of it :) Many times within that world, it is possible to connect the dots you thought before, or even fantasize a dream stage or career that you really love. I hope that inner world of yours will continue to bring great music to many of us :)

[patricklo]

I am so surprise that when you are singing your accent disappeared!
