Distant Lyrics by Sleep On It

Overexposed

2017

[Verse 1]
This is the last time
This is the follow through I'll never find
You're better off believing that I'm gone
Feel the tension
I'm a funeral procession
Driving circles around memories I've lost
Don't wait up
When the morning comes I promise I'll be gone

[Chorus]
I've been down
I've been hit and knocked around
Found the worst side of this town
Not the person I want to be
(You said you’d stay forever)
Scream it loud
Not giving in or giving up right now
I need to find a way to cope somehow
Not the person I want to be
I can't see what's in front of me

[Verse 2]
You feel distant
I only want it when I need it
Took the blue line just to see you one more time
I'm the concrete
That you feel beneath your feet
Cracked and broken
The weather took its toll on me
How long until you see

[Chorus]
I've been down
I've been hit and knocked around
Found the worst side of this town
Not the person I want to be
(You said you’d stay forever)
Scream it loud
Not giving in or giving up right now
I need to find a way to cope somehow
Not the person I want to be
I can't see what's in front of me

[Bridge]
Maybe it's all true
I'll never find somebody like you
Or maybe I should really be alone
Maybe it’s all true
I never wanted someone like you
It’s finally time you make your way back home
(Make your way back home!)

[Outro]
I’ve been down
I’ve been hit and knocked around
Found the worst side of this town
