Overrated (Everything Is)

I'm pretty sure I've posted the video the this song before but the lyrics are really true to how I feel. I know it's a bit of a cop-out when the 2 people that actually bother reading what I have to say see that I've used someone elses words to describe how I feel. Well these lyrics are pretty spot on. So take a read to see how and what I think/ feel at the moment...

Maybe I'm jaded and bored
Always looking for more
Wait around for the next big fix
I know I'm a wreck, I'm a mess
But I couldn't care less
Don't know what it would take to change me

Everybody's so afraid to be different
Please excuse me now if I don't get it

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
Designer drugs and dead end jobs
And classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy
And all the things it's done to me
How can I be satisfied?
When everything is overrated

Maybe the problem is me
But I won't make believe
And I can't take this mediocrity
What if this is a test?
And I deserve what I get?
Will I wake up with all the answers?

Everybody's too afraid to be different
Please excuse me now if I don't listen

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
Designer drugs and dead end jobs
And classic rock is so outdated
I'm so sick of therapy
And all the things it's done to me
How can I be satisfied?
When everything is overrated

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
When everything is overrated.
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
When everything is overrated.

Can't stand the normal
Can't stand the ordinary
Find me anything that's extraordinary
Show me something
Show me anything
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one?

I think sex is overrated
So is always getting wasted
All my friends and family
They make my life so complicated
I'm so sick of apathy and TV show reality
How can I be satisfied?
When everything is overrated.

Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
When everything is overrated.
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah
When everything is overrated.

  1. Although they perfectly express how you feel right now you can't deny that they are beautiful lyrics.
    Make something of how you're feeling. Remember what I said and try and find the possitive in the negative. If there is something annoying you, change it, if there is something you want to reach grab for it with both hands and don't let go. If life is getting you down create something beautiful like this out of it and release it into the world so other people have something to turn to and to express themselves with when they are feeling lost.
    I know it may sound like a lot of mumbojumbo but my biggest belief is that everything happens for a reason, however big or small, however happy or sad that thing may be, everything one day will make sense, even if not to you it will to someone else :)
    Love you booge lane, seriously, i'm gonna name a street one day and that shall be what i call it :)
