Is It Too Late for Me
Beowülf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I... I guess my question is, do you-
Do you think it's too late for me?
What?
I mean a- a- a- am I just doomed to be the person that I am?
The... the person in that book
I- it's not too late for me, is it? It's not too late
Diane, I need you to tell me it's not too late
Bojack-

I... I... I... I need you to tell me I'm a good person
I know that I can be selfish and narcissistic and self-destructive
But underneath all that deep down, I'm a good person
And I need you to tell me that I'm good




Diane, tell me... please Diane
Tell me that I'm good

there might be multiple reasons a person clicks on this video.

some want a soothing track to lull them to sleep. to those people: leave the comments and get the rest you deserve. sleep well.

some are lonely or are feeling very sad. to those people: all pain ends eventually. the good will come soon enough. you can do this.

some may be studying. to those people: leave the comments, I wish you good luck, you’re going to do amazing.

some can’t stand the silence and the thoughts and tears that accompany the silence. to those people: take a deep breath in. now exhale. now say, “I’m fine. I will be fine. I am in control. I am okay.”

to anyone who is reading this right now, i love you. and so do many others. you have nothing to worry about. take a breath and appreciate the good things about this world. everything is and will be okay. you’ve got this. and i love you.
