Over and Under Lyrics

I know you’ll be there

To see the tables turning

Wake up tomorrow

And watch the bridges burning



Pre-chorus I can see

I can see it in your eyes

I can feel

I can feel it in my mind

I don’t care

I don’t care if you realize

What you see

What you see in my eyes



Chorus I’m over me being under you

I’m breaking free I’m breaking through

I’ve overcome all I’m underneath

I can finally stand

I can finally breathe



Remember when we

First had the thought of living

A perfect picture

But I did all the giving

Gave up my passions

To try to make you happy

The joke is over

And I’ll do all the laughing

I think it's about a guy who finally decided not to put up with a girl's shit anymore. The girl was most likely his girlfriend. He doesn't care if she ever finally see's what he's worth, as she obviously doesn't right now. Funny because this basically describes the exact situation I'm in right now with my ex-girlfriend. I've put up with her shit for so long.. I tried so hard to make her happy.. but she could never see what I'm worth. I'm over me being under her.

Rock on Egypt Central

My Boyfriend played this song for me, and I loved it. I don't usually like songs like these. But this one I love. I never heard of this Band before either.

This song is so awesome! I can't get it outta my head. It's stuck in there with "Through the Iris" by 10 Years and "Bleed All Over Me" by Wicked Wisdom."

This band has a lot of potential.. I think the song meaning is breaking free and becoming liberated from one or more persons that are tying you down after you tried so hard to please them.

This is like the best song I've ever heard. Definitely about overcoming being hurt by someone who doesnt appreciate you or takes you for granted.

I wanted to download this album off iTunes, but unfortunately I read that they were caught up in a major record label merger, and were dropped. As a result they're selling this record independent of a label.

Give these guys a little time and I think they're gonna be huge. They're currently all over satellite radio with this song and "You Make Me Sick". Can't get either one out of my head.

I thought this song was about him being in a relationship and his partner is controlling and his partner thinks shes superior in comparison to him.

I think that when he says "I'm over me, been under you" It means he's sick of feeling like he's inadequate and not being to amount up to his partners standards of perfection. He's sick of feeling as if though he's not good enough.

When he says "I can finally stand I can finally breathe" He's meaning, I'm happy I've managed to get out of this relationship and now I can be independant and not have to worry about being controlled anymore.

It's like he sacrificed everything for a girl but she treated him like shit.

everyone is very right about this song....I listen to it sometimes and I feel bad...I treated my ex boyfriend just like this. he was always so extremely kind to me and would do anything for me as long as I was happy. gave up everything for me, and for some reason I was very controlling and I didn't show my appreciation for him. and after a while I guess he pretty much broke free from me...I have apoligized, and he has supposedly forgiven me but idk....biggest mistake I have ever made with a guy....
