Send it out to the boy in the front row Singing his heart out I've been there before Elbow to elbow Lost in a crowd of screams He dreams and knows They'll steal every word straight from your mouth
Dare you to breathe, we'll dare you to drown It's over, just wake me when it's over I will thank you for hanging around this town
It's a long way back home from here Just tell me what you want 'Cause I'm over and out But I'm not done Overreacting, 'cause I'm not acting like I'm somebody else 'Cause that's not me Oh, no
Back it up to three long years ago To a little town in north Jersey I was a teenager back then Dreaming of a big dream- to make it Put your hands on my heart Come on, put your faith in me Lay your life on the line and just believe
It's a long way back home from here Just tell me what you want 'Cause I'm over and out But I'm not done Overreacting, 'cause I'm not acting like I'm somebody else This is my inspiration Yeah, I'll never meet your expectations coming down on me Still I'm not giving in, no It's getting hard to breathe Under pressure I'm living I'm ready to be (Not turning back around)
We only get one chance One true shot to make it Hold the wind in your sails and take it For a ride you can't turn back the time Hold on tight
We'll make it now (We'll make it now) It's a long way back home from here Just tell me what you want 'Cause I'm over and out But I'm not done Overreacting
