Nothing Happens For A Reason - Pompeii

I was living

Long before you were

I live to help you

And still your own way you prefer

You shrug your shoulders

I retreat to mine

Open the paper

And as you read me line by line

Overreact to nothing

Because nothing sinks in A dam of cheap distractions

To hold your grief in Though pools of guilt will stagnate

They will never reach the brim

Overreact to nothing

Because nothing’s sinking in If you can hear me Nod or give a sign

I had the last word

Can I redo it one more time?

I’ll keep my distance

I’ll keep my sanity

I’ll keep my distance

Because you’ll never see me Overreact to nothing

Because nothing sinks in A dam of cheap distractions

To hold your grief in And pools of guilt will stagnate

But you"ll never reach the brim

Overreact to nothing

Because nothing’s sinking in Overreact to nothing
