Too Late - Minke

I first saw the fire

Standing underneath a no smoking sign

As the flames got higher

They would only burn us sometimes

And you call me, but you’re caught up

And you won’t leave, but you want love

And I see you fall

But I’m not strong enough to hold you up

And to own it, or to be us

Or to be free, with no trust

And it’s taking all of my energy

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

You say you’re gonna wait for me, but you’re already gone

How can I want you?

How can I want you?

'Cause you’re so far away from me, I don’t know who you are

You wanna live in a fantasy, sounds so sweet, babe

But you can’t escape the reality of tragedy, babe

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

It’s too fuckin' late for me, can’t do this anymore

I turned to the skies

After shots were fired in broad daylight

Like everything’s fine

With water running from your eyes

And you call me, but you’re caught up

And you won’t leave, but you want love

And I see you fall

But I’m not strong enough to hold you up

And to own it, or to be us

Or to be free, with no trust

And it’s taking all of my energy

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

You say you’re gonna wait for me, but you’re already gone

How can I want you?

How can I want you?

'Cause you’re so far away from me, I don’t know who you are

You wanna live in a fantasy, sounds so sweet, babe

But you can’t escape the reality of tragedy, babe

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

It’s too fuckin' late for me, can’t do this anymore

We already know, we already broke it

And I really hope you don’t feel alone tonight

But don’t bring her home and lead her to fall for you

Until you find whatever it is you’re looking for

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

You say you’re gonna wait for me, but you’re already gone

How can I want you?

How can I want you?

'Cause you’re so far away from me, I don’t know who you are

You wanna live in a fantasy, sounds so sweet, babe

But you can’t escape the reality of tragedy, babe

How can I love you?

How can I love you?

It’s too fuckin' late for me, can’t do this anymore
