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
