Over My Head
Fray (The) Lyrics

I never knew
I was oblivious to the fact that everything was falling apart

I never knew that everything was falling through
I was unaware that everything was failing

That everyone I knew was waiting on a cue
Everyone around me was anticipating the moment to run away

To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
People were afraid to be honest with me

But that's how it's got to be
That's the way the situation is

It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
People have lost interest and stopped caring

I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
I'd rather avoid the situation entirely than face the consequences

The smoke, and who's still standing when it clears
After everything has happened, who will still be there?

Let's rearrange
Let's reorganize the situation

I wish you were a stranger; I could disengage
I wish we had no past history so I could walk away with ease

Say that we agree and then never change
It's better to agree even if nothing changes

Soften a bit until we all just get along
Let's all come to a mutual understanding and get along

But that's disregard
That's just being disrespectful

Find another friend, and you discard
As soon as the argument is lost, you replace the friend

As you lose the argument in a cable car
As you lose the argument in a situation stuck in limbo

Hanging above as the canyon comes between
The situation is becoming more and more divided

And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm no longer a part of your present

I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm becoming the part of your past that will be forgotten

I'm losing you, and it's effortless
I'm losing you, and it's happening effortlessly

Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
We lose sight of reality without even realizing it

In the throw around
In the chaos of it all

Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I never thought you wanted to ruin everything

I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves
I won't allow it to be destroyed unless we destroy it ourselves

Everyone knows
It's obvious to everyone

She's on your mind
You're thinking about her constantly

Everyone knows I'm in
Everyone knows I'm struggling

Over my head
I'm in too deep

With eight seconds left in overtime
With very little time left

She's on your mind
She's constantly on your mind
