Verse 1
Sending out to the boy in the front row
Singing his heart out
I've been there before
elbow to elbow but lost in the crowd
He screams
He dreams and goes down
They steal every word
Straight from your mouth
Dare you to breath
Dare you to drown
It's over
Just wake me when it's over
I will thank you
For hanging around
This town
Chorus 1
It's a long way back
Home from here
Just tell me what you want
'Cause I'm over and out
But I'm not done
Overreacting
Cause I'm not acting
(do intro riff)
like I'm somebody else
'Cause that's not me
Oh no
(Repeat Intro)
Verse 2
Take it back to 3 long years ago
To a little town in north Jersey
I was a teenager back then
Dreaming of a big dream
To make it?
Put your hands on my heart
Come on put your faith in me
Lay your life on
the line and just believe
(Repeat Chorus 1 except last 3 lines)
like I'm somebody else
Bridge
This is my inspiration
That I will never meet
Your expectations coming down on me
Still I'm not giving in, no
It's getting hard to breathe
Under the pressure I'm living
I'm ready To be Me
Not turning back around
(Around, around)
You only get 1 shot 1 small chance to make it
Hold the wind, and you sails to take it
All right to get to turn back the time
Hold on tight We'll make it now
We'll make it now
Chorus 2
It's a long way back
Home from here
Just tell me what you want
'Cause I'm over and out
But I'm not done
Overreacting
