Overwhelmed

[Verse 1]

We make patterns out of stars

And we whisper little prayers

To be somewhere that we're not

And if we're good it will take us there

But then the light comes through the dark

And our questions fall apart

It's just the beating of our hearts

And the still of the midnight air

[Pre-Chorus]

And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell

What I'm thinking

[Chorus]

We get down, down, down

We feel sorry for ourselves

We get down, down, down

We all need somebody's help

Let's get loud, loud, loud

Till there's love and nothing else

Cause the more that you give

The more that comes back around

[Verse 2]

So we hide away our hurts

And put Band-Aids on our fears

And we lie to all our friends

Move along, there's no problems here

But then the orchestra will start, and the violins appear

And a simple little melody has us fighting tears

[Pre-Chorus]

And I get so overwhelmed till it's hard to tell

What I'm thinking

[Chorus]

We get down, down, down

We feel sorry for ourselves

We get down, down, down

We all need somebody's help

Let's get loud, loud, loud

Till there's love and nothing else

Cause the more that you give

The more that comes back around

[Verse 3]

But the hardest part is the way things are

And how quickly fingers will bleed

And the grace we need is not in magazines

It's just space in between when we breathe

[Bridge]

I am down, down, down

I feel sorry for myself

And I get down, down, down

And I need somebody's help

Let's get loud, loud, loud

Till there's love and nothing else

Cause the more that we give

The more that comes back

[Chorus]

Down, down, down

We feel sorry for ourselves

We're down, down, down

We all need somebody's help

Let's get loud, loud, loud

Till there's love and nothing else

Cause the more that we give

The more that comes back around

[Outro]

Oh, the more that we give

The more that comes back around

The more that we give

The more that comes back around
