[Verse 1]
Turn back the clock to how I came to be
A kid with a dream who's so angry
A loner on guitar and skipping out on class
And teachers keep telling me that I won't last
Half-past eight and I'm about to break
Doctor's keep saying it's my A.D.D
(Straight F's on your card)
Yeah, that means "Fuck you!"
Saying I'm crazy and to drop the rockstar
Dream and be a good doctor "I'd make a good doc"
Maybe I could make a good lawyer somehow
[Chorus]
It's like I'm falling fast straight through the glass
The pills they tend to never last oh no
I'm starting to let go
Seeing black when I react
My head's wrapped up, no turning back I know
I'm like an overdose
[Verse 2]
Little taste of fame and groupies everywhere
Left my old band 'cause my heart wasn't there
(Bro you're making a mistake - Did he really cut his hair?)
They're calling me crazy and I really don't give a shi-
Someone call a good doctor "Is there a good doc?"
Probably time to find a good Lawyer right now
[Chorus]
It's like I'm falling fast straight through the glass
The pills they tend to never last oh no
I'm starting to let go
Seeing black when I react
My head's wrapped up, no turning back I know
I'm like an overdose
[Bridge]
The pills go down, the sun comes up
I'm never giving up
The same old fashion with new passion
I'm never growing up
[Chorus]
It's like I'm falling fast straight through the glass
The pills they tend to never last oh no
I'm starting to let go
Seeing black when I react
My head's wrapped up, no turning back I know
I'm like an overdose

Beyond Unbroken vocalist Monte Money shared with Alternative Press:
The song is about my journey through music: Growing up as a kid, wanting to be a musician, but people always tearing that dream down. [Wanting me] to just conform to society stuck at a job that you hate because your dreams can neve...
Bassist Daimen Horrell shared with Alternative Press:
Monte and I really wanted a video that truly fit the essence of the song. I then came up with concept art and worked with the director to fully get the vision Monte and myself had.
