Just a Little Too Late

The perfect illusion

Wrapped in roses

Barbed wire bow

Written words

Stuck to the thorns

That stab my heart

A leave me torn to pieces

I feel like I'm losing

Losing a battle that I can't win

Waiving my white flag

Again and again surrendering

Walking away, away from him

Cuz' I'm done trying

Baby I'm done crying

I'm so done staying up late

Sitting here waiting on you

Like I do

For you to tell me what I've wanted to hear

Over and over all these years

But you were caught up in

Yourself to busy looking away

So when you say I love you all I hear is I love you

Just a little too late...

You're timing is pitiful

When I'm feeling happy

Breaking free

Is when you finally

Notice me

But I'm not here

Note here waiting patiently

Anymore

Cuz' I'm done trying

Baby I'm done crying

I'm so done staying up late

Sitting here waiting on you

Like i do

For you to tell me what I've wanted to hear

Over and over all these years

But you were caught up in

Yourself too busy looking away

So when you say I love you all I hear is I love you

Just a little too late...

Now I'm fighting for myself for the first time

In a long time

I'm standing on my own two feet

Stronger than I used to be

Cuz' I'm done trying

Baby I'm done crying

I'm so done staying up late

Sitting here waiting on you

Like I do

For you to tell me what I've wanted to hear

Over and over all these years

But you were caught up in

Yourself too busy looking away

So when you say I love you all I hear is I love you

Just a little too late...

Just a little too late...
