I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a cue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
To say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and it's effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
Everyone knows
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm over my head
Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind
One of the things that inspired this song was when Isaac's (one of the band members) brother, Caleb, was asked to leave the band early on in the band's history. Just thought that I'd put that out there...
i listened to this song a lot, but it finally took losing a friend to get the real meaning.
it's talking about how its really hard to say goodbye. that he wishes it was easier and that it wouldn't hurt so much to leave them and just go. but its not easy and saying goodbye is the hardest thing ever and sometimes its too much to handle and your way in over your head.
this song makes me cry now...cuz i never wanted to lose my friend becuz she meant the world to me, but i don't think the scars we have are going to heal.
i believe that this song means that he is having problems with either his friends or his girlfriend. He says they are just waiting for a cue or for him to slip up and they have something to tease him about. He just wants to bury the hatchet and to solve the problem easily and calmly.
