Richard Marx
Overtake You
[Verse 1]
Time, it's eating me alive
Unable to rewind
Sink deeper while I'm climbing
Never to arrive
I gave you everything
But still you need to feed
And underneath it all I'm screaming out

[Chorus]
Just carry on
Just prove me wrong
I know that I'm dying right now
And it seems that I'm so far gone
But not for long
I'll just be strong and keep knowing that now I will overtake you

[Verse 2]
You just want what you can use
Won't risk what you can't lose
Play the victim while abusing
Anyone you choose
A painful consequence
Of standing on your lies
I'm barely breathing but I'm screaming out
[Chorus]
Just carry on
Just prove me wrong
I know that I'm dying right now
And it seems that I'm so far gone
But not for long
I'll just be strong and keep knowing that now I will overtake you
I know that I'm dying right now
And it seems that I'm so far gone (Overtake you)
I'll just be strong and keep knowing
That now I will overtake

[Bridge]
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead

[Chorus]
Just carry on
Just prove me wrong
I know that I'm dying right now
And it seems that I'm so far gone
But not for long
I'll just be strong and keep knowing that now I will overtake you
[Outro]
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
(Overtake you)
You come to get me, but you'll end up dead
You come to get me, you come and get me
