Over It
Katharine McPhee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
And I'm over your games
I'm over you asking me
When you know I'm not okay
You call me at night
And I pick up the phone
And though you be tellin' me
I know you're not alone
Oh, and that's why your eyes
I'm over it
Your smile
I'm over it
Realized
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over
Wanting you to be wanting me
No, that ain't no way to be
How I feel
Read my lips
Because I'm so over
(I'm so over it)
Movin' on and it's my time
You never were a friend of mine
Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I'm so over
I'm so over it
I'm over your hands
And I'm over your mouth
Trying to drag me down and fill me with self doubt
Oh, and that's why your world
I'm over it
So sure
I'm over it
I'm not your girl
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over
Wanting you to be wanting me
No, that ain't no way to be
How I feel
Read my lips
Because I'm so over
(I'm so over it)
Movin' on and it's my time
You never were a friend of mine
Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I'm so over
I'm so over it
(Oh) don't call, don't come by
Ain't no use
Don't ask me why
You'll never change
There'll be no more crying in the rain
No, oh oh
I'm over it
Wanting you to be wanting me
No, that ain't no way to be
How I feel
Read my lips
Because I'm so over
(I'm so over it)
Movin' on and it's my time
You never were a friend of mine
Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I'm so over
I'm so over it
Wanting you to be wanting me
No, that ain't no way to be
How I feel
Read my lips
Because I'm so over
(I'm so over it)
Movin' on and it's my time
You never were a friend of mine
Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I'm so over
I'm so over it
The song Over It by Katharine McPhee is about a woman who has finally had enough of a toxic relationship. She is tired of the lies, the games, and his manipulative tactics to make her doubt herself. The narrator expresses that she is "over" everything, including his physical touch, lies, and how he would try to bring her down. The chorus kicks off with the declaration that she's "over it" as she lists all the reasons why she's finally had enough.
Throughout the song, the lyrics are empowering as the narrator moves on from a man who was never good enough for her. The lyrics express how the narrator has come to the realization that the relationship was not healthy for her, and she is proud of herself for leaving. The message behind the song is to encourage women to prioritize themselves and their own well-being over being desperate for someone to want them.
Overall, "Over It" is a powerful anthem about moving on and not settling for less than you deserve.

Hurt at first, a little bit
But now I'm so over
I'm so over it
