[Verse 1]
Yeah, it's over now, but I can breathe somehow
When it's all worn out, I'd rather go without
[Chorus 1]
You know it's been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
[Bridge]
We pay our debt sometime
[Verse 2]
Well it's over now, yet I can see somehow
When it's all gone wrong, it's hard to be so strong
[Chorus 1]
You know it's been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
[Bridge]
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah, we pay our debt sometime
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah, we pay our debt sometime
[Verse 3]
Guess it's over now, I seem alive somehow
When it's out of sight, just wait and do your time
[Chorus 2]
You know it's been on my mind
Could I stand right up
Look myself in the eye
And say that it's over now
[Outro]
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah we pay our debt sometime
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah we pay our debt sometime
Yeah, it's over now, but I can breathe somehow
When it's all worn out, I'd rather go without
[Chorus 1]
You know it's been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
[Bridge]
We pay our debt sometime
[Verse 2]
Well it's over now, yet I can see somehow
When it's all gone wrong, it's hard to be so strong
[Chorus 1]
You know it's been on my mind
Could you stand right there
Look me straight in the eye and say
That it's over now
[Bridge]
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah, we pay our debt sometime
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah, we pay our debt sometime
[Verse 3]
Guess it's over now, I seem alive somehow
When it's out of sight, just wait and do your time
[Chorus 2]
You know it's been on my mind
Could I stand right up
Look myself in the eye
And say that it's over now
[Outro]
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah we pay our debt sometime
We pay our debt sometime
Yeah we pay our debt sometime
