Too Late
She talks to me on my level Understands I won't settle I break bread with the devil And rise up, like a rebel Lost touch a found it My judgment's sometimes clouded On a path that keeps me grounded This the best I ever sounded If I wake up with a nameless, female I'm blameless 15 mins of fame has got us fuckin' acting shameless I'm a walking contradiction, are we fact or are we fiction I just hear myself repeating words from people with ambition But it's broken bottles and hearts (hearts), sleeves cover these scars (scars) Lyrics with no meanings got me chasing empty bars I am full beam, and I'm living Play my theme song, I'm winning I'm a hundred miles an hour, I should speak more than I listen Always your taste, you give me what I cannot replace Leaving it too late to wonder if I'm stuck in my ways And your song, giving what I can't carry on Leaving it too late to keep pushing on, keep pushing on SongtexteGot me living like some tourist in the shade, overworked, underpaid These dark clouds they chase me, just to rain on my parade Pull me closer, steal me With the hands that used to heal me The angel on my shoulder, got so numb that she can't feel me But we hold on, take control, forget those foolish notions Don't tell me that it's sink or swim, then drop me into oceans If you want change, I will change, I might change like fashion I could be this guy, mixed with that guy, mixed with a little more fuckin' passion But they keep calling my name, voices, calling my name A stone throw from my window, and I reach out in vain You can paint it how you want it just prescribe me something real I'm a hundred miles an hour, drunk driving at the wheel Always your taste, you give me what I cannot replace Leaving it too late to wonder if I'm stuck in my ways And your song, giving what I can't carry on Leaving it too late to keep pushing on, keep pushing on Tell me that it's nothing Show me I can change Look for something better Put me out of range I found hope in the lowest places I'll break habit you break faces Them boys couldn't tie my laces Them boys couldn't tie my laces Line them up, for the last time, and I swear this phase is over I'll deal with my reflection, and I swear I say that sober My last chance, my curtain call, don't catch me when I fall If I stumble on these obstacles, I'm tearing down the wall, I am a Trendsetter with no salary, I paint my picture gallery When no one else can handle me, you got my back like family Standby for the landslide, I stand out so I can't hide I'm a hundred miles an hour with you strapped in for the ride Always your taste, you give me what I cannot replace Leaving it too late to wonder if I'm stuck in my ways And your song, giving what I can't carry on Leaving it too late to keep pushing on, keep pushing on Aus Songtexte Mania
