Overcome Songtext
von Nothing But Thieves

I don′t wanna fight, my money's in a bag in the back for you
The future′s overdue
Yeah, I know that
Turn the engine on, our song blaring out a Dead radio
Singing 'I Need To Know'
No turning back

I′ve been thinkin′ babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We′re just waiting for a change to follow
We don't always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we′ve done before

Scrolling through a life, I barely recognised from a hotel room
Took in the lonely view
Got unattached, ey
Bringer of the calm, your arms wrapped around when the fever took
Thought I was gone for good
You brought me back


I've been thinkin′ babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We're just waiting for a change to follow
We don′t always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we′ve done before, ah

It's when we lean in, into the moment
It′s when we're reaching through the divide
It′s when we begin feeling the open
It's when the stranger′s fallen behind
When we shake off the darkness
And harness the light

I've been thinkin' babe, maybe you′re right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We′re just waiting for a change to follow
We don't always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we′ve done before

And we shall overcome as we've done before
And we shall overcome as we′ve done before
