How To Save A Life cover
02. Over My Head (Cable Car)
Album: How To Save A Life
Artist: The Fray
         
 

I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through.
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue,
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth.
But that's how its 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.

(Chorus)
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.
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 us as the canyon comes between.

(Chorus)
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.

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 me down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves.

(Chorus)

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

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
