New Music Drop! - "Too Late"

This rock track has been with me for a looong time, and I decided to revive and clean it up after dusting my guitars off last year. It’s about how, sometimes, trying to do the right thing ends up feeling like the wrong thing to someone else.

lyrics:

saw you lock the door

and throw away the key

in the ocean

then i watched you turn around

and forget me...

supposedly

just like that

everything all gone in a flash

bye bye

would you stop looking at me like i meant to

i never intended it to turn out like this

would you stop looking at me like i meant this

you know i would have stopped to preserve the bliss

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say but I'm sorry?

so just yesterday

i finally heard your story

on the tv

i thought i saw me

but it was just a memory on tape

and you were speaking from

a better time and place

and now you’re gone

but the words still haunt me

would you stop looking at me like i meant to

i never intended it to turn out like this

would you stop looking at me like i meant this

you know i would have stopped to preserve the bliss

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say but I'm sorry?

would you stop looking at me like i meant to

i never intended it to turn out like this

would you stop looking at me like i meant this

you know i would have stopped to preserve the bliss

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say?

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say?

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say?

but it’s too late

too late now

now it’s too late to turn around

so what is left for me to say but i'm sorry?
