It's Too Late

I feel like I am standing on the outside looking in, While I am trying everything to get your attention but I cannot win. Slowly over and over again as my mind repeats Memories of you remembering how you kept Saying hey I know it’s too late to run and hide, Yeah I know it’s just too late to run and hide. I’m holding on to the edge, Over 20,000 thousand feet above the ground Wanting to find a way to be free like you, But while I stand here looking around All I see is black and white, And it’s so cold and lonely Just watching you betray me, Oh I wanta scream out why As you lie saying hey I know it’s too late to run and hide, Yeah I know it’s just too late to run and hide. I’m falling off the edge wondering why I’m not afraid yeah yeah I keep drowning in this fairy tale of a love that was not really real And inside I can feel my heart breaking in thousands of pieces still Saying ----I know it’s too late to run and hide, Yeah I know it’s just too late to run and hide. I wish I would have been more of a man Hey Yeah I wish I would of slapped that smirk off your face Before I feel this deep, Knowing everything you said was a lie, I watched the way you kissed him And how you brought him down with your charms Just like the way it was with you and me as I held you in my arms, But now I am filled with anger, And I know there is nothing that you can say The future is changing and you killed The last chance of us, Yea you killed me with your poison And Now I’m falling 20,000 feet off the ground, Knowing that when I plunge into that ocean water It’s going to be me Saying ----I know it’s too late to run and hide, Yeah I know it’s just too late to run and hide.
