Amanda Overmyer Play On Lyrics

Blank pages, begging to be filled
Only a story or words can reveal
My chest it pains, with repercussions of thoughts
How can I deny myself experience?
How can I leave this place that’s carried me on?

Stay, lead a life of fear
Oh play, make use of these tears
Daring I, never meant to make this sacrifice
But I know that you’ll be waiting after dark
So I’m gonna Play On

Play on

Away from home, it’s never the same
Day to day, it’s all a game
Simply put: I get so damn tired of hearing “hey little girl look what I do for you,
you could rock my would it’s true, I’m working for you”

Now stay, lead a life of fear
Oh play, make use of these tears
Daring I, never meant to make this sacrifice But I know that you’ll be waiting after dark
So I’m gonna Play On

In the end, when my lines are cold and tired
And these years, well they’ve marched across the tired eyes
No longer “The Chile”, well I’ll pull back into the drive, where my heart lies

Stay, lead a life of fear
Oh play, make use of these tears

Oh stay, lead a life of fear
Oh play, make use of these tears
Daring I never meant to make this sacrifice
But I know that you’ll be waiting after dark
Stay yeah
Stay yeah
Stay yeah
Stay yeah
I said stay
Oh I’m going to make use of these tears

Daring I never meant to make this sacrifice
But I know that you’ll be waiting after dark
So I’m gonna Play On
