Iris Temple – Overgrown lyrics

I had to hurry so I took it for the road
The rodents scurry 'cause the city overgrown
I dipped out early thought I'd make it on my own (oh no, oh no)

Smoky rolls along another lonely highway
High tides lead to tie-dyes and sin waves
Beat is cooking baby, we could probably make a fried egg
Riding with the high beams
Ain't slept in like five days (oh lord)
That boy is tired and he swerving
He ain't worried, ain't concerned at all about it like (oh lord)
His vision blurry, white knuckling the steering
Tires squealing, now he flipping like (oh lord)
He's outta body
His soul escapes the burning wreckage
Don't think he'll be home for breakfast
Reckon he'll be waiting in the lobby
What a godly kamikaze

Overgrown, you are the only thing
Keeping me from losing time
One by one you've blown away my dreams
Sleepless nights you're lurking through my fantasy (my fantasy)
I'm up against the truth of you and me
I'm running wild

Hit the self destruct button
Get to running
Get to stepping
'Cause you not safe
It's a camp town race, yelling (doo-dah-day)
Time to abandon my load
Cannot afford to be slowed
What is your plan of escape
Cause this bitch is ready to blow (ready to blow)
I had to hurry, I was running for my life
Leave you guessing if I paid the price or skated by
Roll of the dice, what are my chances?
I dance on my toes, I'm hopelessly frantic
Preparing for damage beyond repair
The rodents scurry 'cause the city isn't theirs
Did anybody pay the piper?
How many seconds on the timer?

Overgrown, you are the only thing
Keeping me from losing time
One by one you've blown away my dreams
Sleepless nights you're lurking through my fantasy
