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
