Over My Head
Good & Broken Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been on the road for days
What's it like to find yourself without me
Can you cut a hole in it
Does it leave an opening
I'm killing time right here without you
Can you taste the last of it
When you're coming home with him
I wanna call again
But i lost my calm in it
So i'll wait for all my sense to come through
So was i in my head last night
Some lines get crossed
Let me in let me in when i
Start to feel the rain
Someday its gonna end
I feel it now
Someday its gonna end
Someday its gonna end
Whats it like to hold and then
Always letting go of it
Can you trace the cord back to the wall
If theres nothing more to it
Why'd you let it pull you in
Can you help me find my sense to come to
So was i in my head last night
Some lines get crossed
Let me in let me in when i
Start to feel the rain
Someday its gonna end
I feel it now
Someday its gonna end
Someday its gonna end
So was i in my head last night
Some lines get crossed
Let me in let me in when i
Start to feel the rain
Someday its gonna end
I feel it now
Someday its gonna end
Someday its gonna end
These lyrics are reflective of a person who is feeling disconnected and uncertain in a relationship. The singer expresses a desire to escape their own thoughts and emotions, possibly indicating that they have been overthinking and analyzing the situation for a long time. They have been on the road for days, physically distant from their partner, and wonder what it would be like for their partner to experience life without them.
The lyrics hint at a sense of longing and jealousy as the singer questions whether their partner can find someone else to fill the void. They wonder if their absence would create an opportunity for someone else to enter their partner's life and create a new connection. The mention of "killing time" suggests that the singer's current state without their partner feels stagnant and unfulfilling.
The song also explores the theme of uncertainty and the desire for reassurance. The singer wonders if their partner, when coming home with someone else, ever experiences the same depth and intensity of connection as they do. The repetition of the line "So was I in my head last night" suggests that the singer is aware of their tendency to overthink and question their own thoughts and feelings.
Despite feeling lost and uncertain, the singer expresses a desire to be understood and let in. They long for a sense of emotional connection and validation, but they struggle with communication and finding the right words. The mention of feeling the rain could be a metaphor for their emotions, indicating that they desire to be emotionally vulnerable and expressive with their partner.
The lyrics ultimately convey a sense of hope for resolution and closure. The singer acknowledges that someday the uncertainty and emotional turmoil they are experiencing will come to an end. It suggests a belief that eventually clarity and understanding will be achieved, allowing the relationship to evolve or possibly end peacefully.

My eyes always get teary when I hear this song.
I remember the time everything seemed perfect, no drama, no fighting, no envy.
But as I grew older, I got to see how cruel the world and its people can be.
When I was 12, my parents started fighting a lot. My dad found out that my mom was cheating on him with someone who was 18 years younger than her. That really broke his heart, I remember seeing him cry all day.
Unfortunately,I barely get to see him now. He never comes at my place to check up, nor does my mom.
My parents were never really there for me either. They were absent for most of my life. They were never there for me when I needed them the most.
They used to be all "lovey dovey" back then but now they both hate eachother.
I lost a lot of important people through out my life too.
You don't want to imagine how I felt, when I lost the best person in my life. My little brother. He will always be in my heart, no matter what.
A lot of people would compare me to my seniors, cousins and friends etc
They would always make me feel like I was a disappointment. They would let all there anger out on me, knowing that I had a very fragile heart and was a naive child.
Honestly, it's partly my fault too. I never stood up for myself because I thought they knew what was right and I didn't.
I was just a very "coward" child.
Now that I have grown up, I am chasing after my dreams and focusing on myself and not on others. I have many people supporting me, even tho my family isn't.
Edit= I am in last year of university right now, my field was towards writing and books. My parents never really supported my dreams, but I kept going after what I wanted. What i wrote above was only half of what happened since I wanted to keep the rest private.
Know that life will always be full of obstacles, that one must pass to proceed the next level. Never give up when you are in time of distress and remember that what you're going through will eventually last.
