Over

I finally wrote a pop-rock ballad. I'm proud of it, and I hope you all will enjoy it. I'll post the lyrics below.


[verse 1]
Raise my glass high,
I'll drink it dry and cry
these tears of whiskey,
fear, and lies.

Just hide the tear-stained key
to my heart, but it don't matter;
you've already ripped it
all apart.

[pre-chorus]
Just light one cigarette,
just for you.
Just go grab my gun,
one bullet left for you,
left you: I won't shoot.

[chorus]
I'm over you,
I'm over me,
I'm over this
false majesty.

I'm over you,
so over me,
one last delight
to set me free.

Raise a glass for the future,
just one hard shot for the past.

So go f*ck you,
cuz this ain't me,
we'll say goodbye,
our eternity,
one eternity,
all eternity,
yeah, eternity.

[verse 2]
I'll lie outside,
watch clouds go by, their faces
haunt all that I hold
deep inside.

Count sacred mem'ries,
joyful lights; they darken:
muted by the smoke of
canon-fight.

[pre-chorus]
[chorus]

[bridge]

Sometimes
when I think of you;
all the things that you do
to me, to we, to us together.
(oh yeah, oh yeah)
Yeah you
stole the key to my heart
but you ripped it apart
when you waged war, forlorn, inside me.
(oh)

Woah - oh - oh oh - oh,
oh oh oh - oh oh - oh oh oh.
Woah - oh - oh oh - oh,
oh oh oh - oh oh - oh oh oh.

But it's time to swallow my pride,
forgive the beast that lives inside.
For without you, baby, I'd
never be who I am, I am today.
But that don't change a thing, oh yeah,
I am today, a thing, I am today,
I'm over you, yeah you, over you.

[chorus]
