Too Late To Turn Back - Black 47

Wait until dawn

The streets will be cool and clean again

Then it’s time to go downstairs

And meet the man

He’ll be sittin' in a limo with a gun in his hand

You’ve been waitin' like this for years

Through all the laughter and the cloudy tears

Always standin' on a tightrope

Through a million little bands

Always waitin' for redemption

Now it’s right at hand

You’ll hear me tickin' like a time bomb

Ready ready to explode

Too late to turn back now

I’ve gone beyond overload

You’ll hear me tickin' like a time bomb

Ready ready to ignite

It’s now or never, my darlin',

It’s too late to turn back tonight

Nothin' left to gain

Just more of the same old thing again

Always runnin' round in circles

Always workin' for the man

But tonight I’m breakin' out of here

Tonight I’m gonna make a stand

I’ve never felt so alive

My heart is on fire and so is my mind

Now it’s time to go downstairs

And meet the man

Catch his look of confusion

When I take him by the hand

He’ll hear me tickin' like a time bomb…
