Too Late
Dunluvly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To no surprise, I succumb to laughter
I've come to realize we're all insane
With our demise, we can panic after
I'll stick to this
No need to wring my wrists
My old styles brought me back to darkness
Don't feel a kiss, tabooed cannabis
Said it's fine they can thank me after
Ooo it's fine they can thank me after
But it's fine they can thank me after
Pretend to be asleep, I'll play this game
My wildest dreams seemed to see this captured
I think it's time to heed the things I've shamed
My calloused mind never thinks to ask her
I'll reminisce on all the chances missed
I've served my time clutching hands with madness
Push in my chips
Don't care what bets I hit
But I'm too late now what a disaster
And it's my fault man I should have been faster
Ooo I guess I should move past her
Turn a leaf and start a new chapter
I guess I'll hop now
Get back on top now
