Overboard Songtext
von Melissa Ferrick

Everybody got one
A definite tipping point
One particular push on the nerve
And it′ll send you overboard

Everybody been hurt
Everybody been in love
So why do I feel so alone?
Sitting here with the heart you burned
Yeah, the heart you burned

You're nothing but a liar
You′re nothing but a joke
You may have a heart in there somewhere
But it's been covered in smoke
You're nothing but a mirror
And you can′t even look at yourself
I′m glad you cheated on me now
I'm better off by myself
(Yes, by myself)


So I got myself all messed up here
′Cause I believed your lies
Just when I heard you screaming for help
Split in half is how it felt
When I came running up that hill to find you laughing
Lying there, sun in yourself

You're nothing but a liar
You′re nothing but a joke
You may have a heart in there somewhere
But it's been covered in smoke
You′re nothing but a mirror
And you can't even look at yourself
I'm glad you cheated on me now
I′m better off by myself
By myself, yes

I want answers, answers, I want answers!
I′m gonna rise up, I'm gonna rejoice
I′m gonna hold the hand of everything that's real
I wanna lie down in the dirt of this earth
And fix my eyes on the moon, repeating to me
That I am constantly in motion, I′m a vessel for the truth
I am constantly in motion, I'm a vessel for the truth
I am constantly in motion, I′m a vessel for the truth
Constantly in motion, I'm a vessel for the truth


You're nothing but a liar
You′re nothing but a joke
You may have a heart in there somewhere
But it′s been covered in smoke
You're nothing but a mirror
You can′t even look at yourself
I'm glad you cheated on me now
I′m better off by myself
