And all the voices out there
Are calling out to use tonight
The hum of faceless whispers
Caress the sleepless ones who might
Never fulfill their hunger
and never understand their plight
We seek advice from somewhere
The only words of wisdom now

Life is short and love is always overrated
Life is short and love is always overrated

Standing, watching, taking my pride
Standing, watching, taking my pride
Standing, watching, taking their side

And now the fire inside me's died
I am too scared to ask you why
And all the views I had of you
Have all been tainted in my mind
I have nothing left to give
I gave it all away tonight
I try so hard to cling to
Anything I still call mine
I have no strength left to show
I never had the strength you did
And as I stand in judgment
I have only this to say

Life is short and love is always overrated
Life is short and love is always overrated
Life is short and love is always overrated
Life is short and love is always overrated
Standing, watching, taking my pride
Standing, watching, taking their side

And all the voices out there
Are calling out to us tonight
The hum of faceless whispers
Caress the sleepless ones tonight
Life is short and love is always overrated
