Lyrics

MEN AT WORK - Overkill

I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know it will be alright Perhaps its just my imagination Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Alone between the sheets Only brings the exasperation It's time to walk the streets Smell the desperation At least there's pretty lights And though there's little variation It nullifies the night From overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Come back another day. Repeat from the start
