It's Over When It's Over Lyrics

I've got my life laid out in front of me
like roads drawn on the map.
I've had so many times where I slipped off
the beaten path.
I took the time to see the picture and for
what it's worth.
I'd walk a thousand miles without my shoes
to make it work.

I swore to God that I'm never coming back.
Kept my faith when I was
clapped.
Staring at the wall through a crack in the
floor. And these metal doors,
they've got me trapped.
I gotta remind myself that my mind is
strong so that I won't lose my
head.
I've got my demons that I fight with, every
little thought in every
breath.

I wear my heart up on my sleeve so my
soul's exposed.
And I carry this disease, the plague of the
holy ghost.
God, can you hear me? God is missing.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't
over til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't
admit.
Set it down, final hour without a doubt,
it's over when it's over.

You've got your life laid out in front of
you, like a car crash.
I'm cautious at the wheel cause you were
driving too fast.
But if you took the time to check up in
your rearview mirror,
You'd see the things you're driving from or
your biggest fears.

You gotta get back up from the wreckage
above and walk right through the fire.
No matter what happens, the fact is that
the flames keep getting
higher.
You gotta keep it going, keep tiptoeing
through the fire and the flames
and the pain of knowing.
Through all this doubt, gotta keep on
going, gotta give that spark,
gotta keep on glowing.

I wear my heart up on my sleeve so my
soul's exposed.
And I carry this disease, the plague of the
holy ghost.
God, can you hear me? God is missing.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't
over til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't
admit.
Set it down, final hour without a doubt,
it's over when it's over.

So please, please, just let me make my
peace.
I refuse to let your words be the death of
me.
Please, please, just let me live my life.
Stop living in my shadow and just make it
right.
It's over, make it right.

Take it back, take it back, my friend,
All the things that you said about the end.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't
over til it's over.
Give it up, give it up, my friend.
The score is settled even if you won't
admit.
Set it down, final hour without a doubt,
it's over when it's over.
It's over, it's over.
This is it, this is me telling you it ain't
over til it's over
