Over my shoulder, running away
Feels like I'm falling, losing my way

Cold and dry
Cold and dry

Fog out my daylight, torture my night
Feels like I'm falling far out of sight

Cold
Drunk
Tired
Lost

Over my shoulder, running away
Feels like I'm falling, losing my way

Cold, dry
Cold and dry

Fog out my daylight, torture my night
Feels like I'm falling far out of sight

Cold, drunk
Cold and drunk

    My Interpretation

    i feel like Over My Shoulder was basically made to show a contrast at the end of Life in Cartoon Motion

    LiCM is such a happy go lucky album but i do feel as if as the album goes on it gets darker and darker, going from the brightness of Grace Kelly to the vibrancy found in Lollipop, before a darkening in songs like Ring Ring and then despite the happy feeling you get if you just listen to Happy Ending, it is very dark and i think leads nicely into Over My Shoulder

    I think that the album represents somebody's slip into depression due to many failed relationships and their divorce in Happy Ending is the final straw, meaning they can't take it anymore and go very gothic and depressiony (i know depressiony isn't a word, but oh well), leading to the sombre tones of Over my Shoulder
