Overcome
Cast Aside Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You never call my name
You never look my way
You always hide in shame
You always run away
I am losing my fucking head
But my fucking will
Is so strong
Will not break
Now its time to prove myself




Time to die

The lyrics of Cast Aside's song Overcome talk about a person who is fed up with being ignored and avoided by someone they care about. The singer feels like they have given too much and received nothing in return. They are frustrated and on the brink of losing their mind. However, their willpower and determination to overcome this situation are equally strong. The person wants to prove themselves, and they are willing to put everything on the line, even their life, to show that they are not someone to be ignored or taken for granted.


The theme of the song is quite intense, and the lyrics are extremely emotive. The feelings of anger, frustration, and determination are noticeable in the tone of the singer's voice.
