[INTRO] [Layered 808 drums, quick‑time bass hits, retro electric guitar, nu‑metal lead explosion] [Whispered ghostly harmony] Love’s overrated… [VoxR]: Overrated [VERSE 1 — The Bad Old Days] [male] She twisted every sunrise into another fight, [male] Turned quiet mornings into storms overnight. [male] I walked on eggshells just to keep the peace, [male] But her chaos grew while my sanity decreased. [male ad‑lib] Always something… [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [group chant] Say it again — Love Stinks! [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Ooh yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [male] She wore my habits like a costume on loan, [male] But every smile cracked when we were alone. [male] I kept losing myself trying to keep her whole — [male] Love shouldn’t cost you pieces of your soul. [male ad‑lib] Learned the hard way… [CHORUS 1] [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello agony… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s exaggerated… [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Misery… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s inflated… [VoxR]: Love stinks... Love stinks,... yeah, yeah... [VoxR]: Love stinks... [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Insanity… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s manipulated… [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Anxiety… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s suffocated… [Male Ad‑lib]: ooh, ooh, ooh — yeah, yeah... [VERSE 2 — The Turning Point] [male] She used silence like shackles, kept me in place, [male] Made me doubt my worth every time I showed my face. [male] A hundred little lies, a thousand quiet cuts — [male] I was drowning in her drama and emotional ruts. [male ad‑lib] Breaking down… [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [group chant] Say it again — Love Stinks! [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Ooh yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [male] But the day I walked out, the world finally cleared, [male] No more shadows, no more things I feared. [male] I felt the weight lift the moment I let go — [male] Freedom hits different when you stop the show. [male ad‑lib] Breathing again… [CHORUS 2] [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello agony… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s exaggerated… [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Misery… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s inflated… [VoxR]: Love stinks... Love stinks,... yeah, yeah... [VoxR]: Love stinks... [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Insanity… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s manipulated… [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Anxiety… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s obliterated… [Male Ad‑lib]: ooh, ooh, ooh — yeah, yeah... [VERSE 3 — The Good Life Now] [male] Now I wake up slow, take life at my pace, [male] No more pretending just to keep up the chase. [male] I do what I want, on my own terms now — [male] Peace feels holy when you remember how. [male ad‑lib] Finally living… [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [group chant] Say it again — Love Stinks! [group chant] Love’s Overrated! [group chant] Ooh yeah‑yeah‑yeah! [male] My sanity’s back, my heart’s back too, [male] I found myself in the space she withdrew. [male] Love’s overrated when it’s built on pain — [male] I’d rather walk alone than drown again. [male ad‑lib] Light after dark… [BREAKDOWN — The Contrast] [male] She was the storm — I was losing the fight, [male] But leaving her chaos brought me back to the light. [male] I traded her darkness for the peace I deserved, [male] And found the man I lost when my heart was unnerved. [male ad‑lib] Overrated… love stinks… [OUTRO CHORUS] [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello agony… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s exaggerated… [Male]: Goodbye sanity, hello Misery… [Male]: Love’s overrated, yeah, yeah... [Male Ad‑lib]: Love’s inflated… [VoxR]: Love stinks... Love stinks,... yeah, yeah...
