Over It Over Again Lyrics
Why do I always want to sock it you hard?
Let you know what love is like
When I'm keeping all my cards up on the shelf
Where you can't see them
Why do I always want to keep it to myself?
Taking advantage only works when
You're leaving someone else out in the dark
(I didn't mean to)
Running away from you (is just like)
Running a business (and I'm)
Keeping up with the games you play, every day
I've gotten over it, over and over again
I've gotten over it, over and over again
I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
I've gotten over it, over and over again
Let you know what love is like
When I'm keeping all my cards up on the shelf
Where you can't see them
Why do I always want to keep it to myself?
Taking advantage only works when
You're leaving someone else out in the dark
(I didn't mean to)
Running a business (and I'm)
Keeping up with the games you play, every day
I've gotten over it, over and over again
I've gotten sick of it, a lick of it will suck me back in
I've gotten over it, over and over again

i really hate the line "running away from you just like running a business".
it really ruins this song.
Yeah, that line doesn't make much sense.

I always thought this song was about 'she' trying to escape her feelings for 'him', but getting sucked back into it over again. So the line "running away from you just like running a business" to me means that knows she wants to escape it, and she approaches it methodically, but inevitably one little slip and she's back in...

That's a good point, lp. Or it could mean that just like business ownership, her relationship with this guy is taking up all her time. It keeps her on her toes.

At any rate, I wish Zooey had used a neater analogy!

I think it makes sense. I just thought it meant that running away is more complicated than it seems, and it requires a lot of upkeep.
