Lyrics

Tick-tock there's another daybreak

Acknowledging the arrival of a new day

Keep feeling my heart beat out my chest

Feeling intense emotions, possibly anxiety or excitement

Been wasting my time all day

Having wasted time throughout the day

Cause I don't wanna say it, so I just keep on playing

Reluctance to express something, resorting to playing instead

But I'm over, I'm over lies, I'm over time

Expressing a state of being done with lies and wasted time

I won't hold my breath

Not holding one's breath, letting go of expectations

Got no regrets, on to the next, there's nothing left

No regrets, moving on to the next without lingering on the past

I'm over you

Clear declaration of being over someone

I'm over, oh, oh

Repetition emphasizing the speaker's resolution to move on

Yea, I'm over

-

Oh, oh

-

I'm over you

-

I'm over

-

I'm over

-

I'm over

-

I'm over you

-

Why waste time

Questioning the value of wasting time

I'd rather say bye

Preferably choosing to say goodbye

Swallow my pride

Accepting responsibility and willing to be the "bad guy"

Be the bad guy

Expressing readiness to move on

Cause I'm over – I'm over

Repeated affirmation of being over someone

I'm over – I'm over

-

I'm over – I'm over

-

I'm over you

-

I don't want to play this game

Not wanting to participate in a relationship game

We both know it only causes pain

Acknowledging that the game causes pain for both

No point trying to pass the blame

No point in assigning blame

It's time for me to do it, so I'm saying screw it

Decision to take action despite the consequences

Cause I'm over, I'm over lies, I'm over time

Reiteration of being over lies and wasted time, moving forward

I won't hold my breath

-

Got no regrets, on to the next, there's nothing left

-

I'm over you

-

Oh, I'm over

Repeating the state of being over someone

Oh, I'm over

-

I'm over you

-

Go

Command to go or move on

I'm over

Emphasizing being over someone

I'm over

-

I'm over

-

I'm over you

-

Why waste time

Reiterating the futility of wasting time

I'd rather say bye

Preference for saying goodbye

Swallow my pride

Willingness to swallow pride for the sake of moving on

Be the bad guy

Acceptance of the role of the "bad guy"

Cause I'm over – I'm over

Reaffirming being over someone

I'm over – I'm over

-

I'm over – I'm over you

-

Over, that's what we are

Stating the current status as "over" and the need to let go

Now it's time to let it go

-

Over, that's what we are

-

Now it's time to let it go

-

I'm over, I'm over, I'm over you

Final repetition of being over someone
