Overexposed Lyrics by Sleep On It

Overexposed

2017

[Verse 1]
You give up a few things
Chasing a dream
I keep running away from
Every sin I made at seventeen
Took the scenic route
Down a dead end street
Thought I'd find you there
Thought I'd find what I might need
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh sweet oxygen
Let me breathe again
[Chorus]
And it shows
I'm overexposed with fear in tow
The same lyrical tropes and overused notes
Well I cut the rope
That I tied to the past
I've always known
I'd like to be the water where you float
[Verse 2]
You're begging for a reason
I'm trying to explain
That what you're hearing’s
What I need to say
Been crawling through the darkness
Been fighting off the pain
My scars still show
It gets worse every day
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh sweet oxygen
Let me breathe again
With your hands around my neck
I'm starting to give in
[Chorus]
And it shows
I'm overexposed with fear in tow
The same lyrical tropes and overused notes
I cut the rope
That I tied to the past
I've always known
I'd like to be the water where you float
[Bridge]
The sins I made at seventeen
Have started crashing down on me
I'm swimming against
The currents of regret
That brought you to me
[Chorus]
It shows
I'm overexposed with fear in tow
The same lyrical tropes and overused notes
I cut the rope
That I tied to the past
I've always known
I'd like to be the water where you float
