lyrics

Just when I thought I’d seen it all, just when I was sure I had
That’s when the bottom completely dropped out, who knew it could be so bad?
We’re living in the darkest timeline, just when you think things couldn’t be worse
That’s when another shoe drops, the wheels fall off, no blessings, just a curse

There’s a man gone overboard, let him drift out to sea
A mighty mouth that roared, it won’t bother me

It’s so hard to keep the faith, when nothing is going right
They say it’s darkest before the dawn, and I see no sunlight
We will put one foot in front of the other, there is no other choice
Look out for one another, and let nothing silence our voice

There’s a man gone overboard, let him drift out to sea
A mighty mouth that roared, it don’t bother me
The man’s gone overboard, he took things way too far
The man’s gone overboard, I knew it from the start

I’ve got a lot to say, but no helpful contributions
I have all of the answers, but none of the solutions

There’s a man gone overboard, let him drift out to sea
The man’s gone overboard, I’ll pretend not to see
The man’s gone overboard, let him sink or swim
The man’s gone overboard, we’re better off without him
