Overrun Lyrics by Rob Thomas

Cradlesong

2009

[Verse 1]
It's late in the afternoon
And you're alone in your hotel room
Alright, oh well
It's hard, I can tell

[Verse 2]
You're circling photographs
Well, some things can never last
Alright, oh well
It's hard, I can tell

[Pre-Chorus]
So you go, as far as you can go
So nobody knows who you are
Your wasting away but it feels good so far

[Chorus]
I know, it's hard to bear this
Life ain't fair, we're always overrun
And I can't take this
Always overrun

[Verse 3]
Well, don't let 'em get to you
You've seen what the worst can do
Alright, oh well
Now it's hard, I can tell

[Pre-Chorus]
So if you go, as far as I can tell
The world never leaves you alone
Sooner or later you always come home

[Chorus]
I know, it's hard to bear this
Life ain't fair, we're always overrun
And I can't take this
Always overrun

[Bridge]
Alright, oh well
Alright, oh well
Alright, alright
Well, alright
Well, alright

[Chorus]
I know, it's hard to bear this
Life ain't fair we're always overrun
And I can't take this
Always overrun
Overrun

[Chorus]
I can't bear this
Always, I'm always overrun
Always overrun
Overrun
Yeah
