Late

I don't remember why I was late
I do remember you standing there
A figure perfectly clothed
Then I smiled, but I felt strange
I'm not supposed to have control
But I know that I had it wrong

And the girl, you took the same
Show me how, bring me down
There's no place else to go
Where you grew up from the shit that is to come
And I just can't blame the truth
There was something I could do
I leave it in the corner of some bar
It's late, I'm fading away
At least I won't see that-that side again

And then I watch you carefully
I'm trying to touch you lightly
It was my making, it was my own
But I'm sitting below

And the girl, you took the same
Show me how, bring me down
There's no place else to go
Where you grew up from the shit that is to come
And I just can't blame the truth
There was something I could do
I leave it in the corner of some bar
It's late, I'm fading away
At least I won't see that-that side again (that side again)

There's no place else to go
Where you grew up from the shit that's coming up
And I just can't blame the truth
There's nothing I can do
My head goes back in time and tries to
Find a moment I can somehow latch the words away
At least I won't see that-that side again
