Lyrics

Verse 1
Running full bore at capacity
Whirlwind fast-lane bustling
Every level, every job answering
Became hard-charger tenacity
Prechorus
I need to change my state of mind
Let the ocean tides set the time
Chorus
I'm cashing in on an overdue vacation
One I get away from myself
Far away from heavy-weighted situations
Does it matter why I'm still doing this? I can't tell
That's why I need a vacation from myself
Verse 2
Maybe Turning off the phone, calling out of work
Long enough to choose each moment i want building up my world
All I'm asking for is a pause, so help, I can breathe
Stop along the ride, remembering who I used to be
Chorus
I'm cashing in on an overdue vacation
One I get away from myself
Far away from heavy-weighted situations
Does it matter why I'm still doing this? I can't tell
I achieved so much, creating this machine
Just to take me over, doing everything
I forgot the people, things that made me
Reasons why I am here, who I'd want to be
Chorus
I'm cashing in on an overdue vacation
