Exhausting Lyrics by DL One Direction

Devil In The Details

2017

Intro:
It's exhausting waking up alone
It's exhausting always checking my phone
To see if I'm missed or being thought of
To see if I'm the only one still secretly in love

Verse 1:
Woke up hungover
With nobody holdin' me close
Starved through the morning
Without my daily toast
Threw up in the toilet
Wasn't asked if I'm okay
Went to turn on music
Couldn't pick a song to play
Decided to watch tv
Couldn't find the remote
Trying to stay alive
But I'm lacking all hope
Ordered lunch
Wasn't sure how much to tip
Alone can't be this hard
Just need to get a grip

Pre-chorus:
Not sure how to do anything for myself
From mom to roommates to girls likе you
I've never had to lift a fingеr
How does everyone make it through

Chorus:
It's exhausting waking up alone
It's exhausting always checking my phone
To see if I'm missed or being thought of
To see if I'm the only one still secretly in love
It's exhausting keeping up with life
It's exhausting going out every night
Cause if I'm not with friends I feel I'm missing out
And if I'm missing out I'll end up forgotten about

Verse 2:
Tried to take a nap
Ended up sleeping all-day
Thought about calling you
Couldn't think of words to say
Tried dating apps
But I know it won't work out
Cause I need so much therapy
I deserve a discount
Wanted to call my parents
So I could blame it all on them
But I'm not in the mood
To be called dramatic again
Realizing how much
Small things build-up
Realizing I've never
Had a half-full cup

Pre-chorus:
Not sure how to do anything for myself
From mom to roommates to girls like you
I've never had to lift a finger
How does everyone make it through

Chorus:
It's exhausting waking up alone
It's exhausting always checking my phone
To see if I'm missed or being thought of
To see if I'm the only one still secretly in love
It's exhausting keeping up with life
It's exhausting going out every night
Cause if I'm not with friends I feel I'm missing out
And if I'm missing out I'll end up forgotten about

Bridge:
Ex-hausting
Ex-hausting
Ex-hausting
It's ex-hausting

Chorus:
It's exhausting sleeping alone
It's exhausting in a house not a home
Cause you were my safe space every night for a year
And now every thought I have is wrapped up in fear
It's exhausting trying to wear a fake smile
It's exhausting just trying to go a mile
Every step I take is in the wrong direction
From the only one with whom I've felt a connection
It's exhausting waking up alone
It's exhausting always checking my phone
To see if I'm missed or being thought of
To see if I'm the only one still secretly in love
It's exhausting keeping up with life
It's exhausting going out every night
Cause if I'm not with friends I feel I'm missing out
And if I'm missing out I'll end up forgotten about
