Lyrics
It’s too late to change your mind
Even though this fragile world
Is tearing apart at the seams
I can’t wash these sins away
This sinking feeling everyday
I’m waking up with someone else’s life
Is it so hard for you?
‘Cause it’s so hard for me
To believe that what we dream
Could ever come to life again
‘Cause I can’t help erase this lie
I’m not gonna let this day go by
I’m gonna save this wasted life
And nothing can stand in my way
I’m not enough to say goodbye
Burn it 'til there’s nothing left
And throw it in the mess that I have made
Is it so hard for you?
‘Cause it’s so hard for me
To believe that what we dream
Could ever come to life again
‘Cause I can’t help erase this lie
(Darkness in me)
The water’s rising around us
There is no other way down
I only have myself to blame
For it all, all
Is it so hard for you?
‘Cause it’s so hard for me
To believe that what we dream
Could ever come to life again
If I could just erase my mind
Then I could help erase this lie
