Overkill (Live in Christchurch 1982)

One, two, three, four

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
That I know will be all right
Perhaps it's just imagination

And day after day, it reappears
And night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Feel the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill

And day after day, it reappears
And night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
That I know will be all right
It's just overkill

And day after day, it reappears
And night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
