Louden Swain - Over Before It Began lyrics

Overwhelmed and underpaid
Dreams are cast on better days
Lady, please, oh
Let it lay right down here next to me
And I will make you promises I
Don't know that I can keep

And at the end of the day
It don't matter either way

If you're gonna put a gun to my head
I'll give you straight talk, mister
But you're wasting your lead
I got opinions that I keep to myself
I was a straight A student
'cause I studied like hell
I look around me, I see cracks in the street
But it don't stop the people
Here from moving their feet and it's over

Memorized and paralyzed
Mistakes were made and been revised
Uh, I run to look busy, you wonder what I do
Do you?
The truth is I don't know but I hope to soon
To soon

And at the end of the day
It don't matter either way

If you're gonna put a gun to my head
I'll give you straight talk, mister
But you're wasting your lead
I got opinions that I keep to myself
I was a straight A student
'cause I studied like hell
I look around me, I see cracks in the street
But it don't stop the people
Here from moving their feet
And it's over before it began
Before it began ooh ooh

And at the end of the day
It don't matter either way

If you're gonna put a gun to my head
I'll give you straight talk, mister
But you're wasting your lead
I got opinions that I keep to myself
I was a straight A student
I look around me, I see cracks in the street
But it don't stop the people
Here from moving their feet and it's over
Over over
Before it began

Ooh ha ha
Ha ha
