Overdue - The Get Up Kids

You’re a few years overdue.

I spent them waiting here for you.

Now your charity’s refused,

I can name a penance for abuse.

Twenty four years overdue,

what kind of role model are you?

Very least learn not to do,

I think I might be over you.

Do hope I won’t

Learn to make

The same mistakes,

That you would

Make me aware

That only fear,

My only hope,

Is letting go.

Went on a limb for you,

Capsized when I turned twenty two.

Did it burn as bad for you?

No bottle serves to soothe my wounds.

Do hope I won’t

Learn to make

The same mistakes,

That you would

Make me aware

That only fear,

My only hope,

Is letting go.

My only hope

Is letting go.

You’re a few years overdue.

I spent them waiting here for you.
