Ruby Haunt Lyrics

In the slow songs fading out
Took you so long to figure it out
Every moment is faster now
What took you so long to figure it out?

What took you so long to figure it out?
What took you so long to figure it out?
What took you so long to figure it out?
What took you so long to figure it out?

What killed the moment will shut you down
Took you so long to figure it out
Every problem is over now
What took you so long to figure it out?

What took you so long to figure it out?
What took you so long to figure it out?
What took you so long to figure it out?
