Over Lyrics
watching the insects devour
the last of the summer's flowers
listening to the same old thing
but nothing is the same
watching the only thing i ever really
wanted slip away
feeling the heat i'm suffocating
well aware that no one's waiting
here or there or inbetween
desperately holding on to what i
think i need
everything's over
everything's over
you say nothing could be wrong
but i know things don't take this long
if they're okay
nothing's okay
wasted all my time again today
i'll never amount to anything
if i go on this way
watching the ocean take back
every wish i make
throwing sand back to the sea
watching the sun go down and wishing
that the waves would take back me
the last of the summer's flowers
listening to the same old thing
but nothing is the same
watching the only thing i ever really
wanted slip away
well aware that no one's waiting
here or there or inbetween
desperately holding on to what i
think i need
everything's over
but i know things don't take this long
if they're okay
nothing's okay
i'll never amount to anything
if i go on this way
watching the ocean take back
every wish i make
throwing sand back to the sea
watching the sun go down and wishing
that the waves would take back me
