Long Overdue Lyrics

Deciding that the thrill was gone

I had simply drifted away

Leaving all goodwill to fate

All this while without having faith

It was all just in my head

Questions that were so obscene

Of why you hated me

What did I do to you

I romanticized the fantasy

But put no heart into it

Asked myself what I was doing here

There's nothing I'm getting out of this

But I won't just sit here and rot

There must be something left in me

So I take care of myself again

Be content to leave it as a dream

I came to find that along the way

There are some things that I can never change

My answer long overdue

Satisfied at the end of my days

Like fixing a broken bone

As I push it back into place

The pleasure to be whole again

But to suffer a lesser pain

My constitution in its rightful state

As I shy away from these loreful days

If I can't get it right the first time

There must be some better way to try

I shouldn't want you to be mine

I should only want you to be fine

Then only will I feel the same

Peace, long overdue

Made this time
