Lyrics to 'Over Now' (not sure on a few):
Yeah, its over now
But I can breathe somehow.
When it's all worn out
I'd rather go without.
You know it's been on my mind,
Could you stand right here
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now?
We pay our debts sometime.
Well it's over now
Yet I can see somehow.
When it's all gone wrong
It's hard to be so strong.
We pay our debts sometime.
Yeah, it's over now
I seem alive some how.
When it's out of sight
Just wait and do your time.
You know it's been on my mind,
Could i stand right here
Look myself in the eye and say
That it's over now?
We pay our debts sometime.
