Tina Arena - Overload Lyrics

By the look on my face I'm a soldier
By the battles I've faced I'm a fighter
But the truth is
I'm about to break

By the look in my eyes I'm wiser
By the tears that I've cried I'm lighter
But the truth is
I've had as much as I can take

I've been draggin' a bag since nineteen eighty
It swinged me down, can someone help me let it go?
I'm in overload

I've been relighting a match since nineteen eighty
Hoping the time and space would help me let it go
I'm in overload

By the mountains I've climbed I should be higher
By the stars that I've chased I should be brighter
But the truth is
I've got nothing left

Is it madness to give and not get?
Am I hopeless and over my head?
All I know is
It's catching up with me

I've been draggin' a bag since nineteen eighty
It swinged me down, can someone help me let it go?
I'm in overload

I've been relighting a match since nineteen eighty
Hoping the time and space would help me let it go
I'm in overload

I got caught up in this mess
I was torn up, lost my breath
It's in overload
It ain't over though

I got caught up in this mess
I was torn up, lost my breath
It's in overload
It ain't over though

I've been draggin' the bag since nineteen eighty
It swinged me down, can someone help me let it go?
I'm in overload

I've been relighting a match since nineteen eighty
Hoping the time and space would help me let it go
I'm in overload
