I can't get to sleep
So I fooled you now you have to read the lyrics

Artist: Colin Hay Lyrics
Song: Overkill Lyrics

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 I'll be alright
Perhaps it's just 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 exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

Yes this is part of me.

1. Oh! You sly trickster!
Aha! Fooled you back! Now you have to read MY lyrics:

I know,
I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself, I thought that I could live for no-one else.
But now,
Through all the hurt and pain
It's time for me to respect the ones you love me more than anything.
So with sadness in my heart, feel the best thing I could do... is end it all and live forever.
What's done is done, it feels so bad, what once was happy now is sad,
I'll never love again, my world is ending.........

I wish that I could turn back time. Because now the gift is all mine, can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know, we can't forget the past. You can't forget love and pride,
because of that, it's killing me inside.

It all returns to nothing, it all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

In my heart of hearts, I know that I could never love again, I've lost everything, everything, everything that matters to me matters in this world.


I wish that I could turn back time. 'Cause now the gift is all mine, can't live without the trust from those you love.
I know, we can't forget the past. You can't forget love and pride,
because of that, it's killing me inside.

It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

It all returns to nothing, it just keeps tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

Tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.

Letting me down, letting me down, letting me down.

Tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down.
