To Late
AS I TRY TO SAY THE WORDS THAT MEAN SO MUCH TO ME
I CANT SPIT THEM OUT AND I WISH YOU WOULD LEAVE
AS HARD AS I TRY TO STAY STONG MY HEART IS BREAKING FROM THE SILENCE
I KNOW YOU SEE IT IN MY FACE
BUT SOMEONE HAS TAKEN MY PLACE
AS YOU SMILE I SIT AND CRY
WONDERING WHAT I DID SO WRONG THAT HE DID SO RIGHT
WHEN ALL I WANNA DO IS RIP MY HEART OUT AND PLACE...IT ON A TRAY
I CANT PUT IT BACK I CANT EVEN GIVE IT AWAY
ITS BROKEN, MANGLED AND TORE INTO PIECES
HAND ME A KNIFE
CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO DIE
TRICKING MY HEART INTO A LIE
THAT I DON’T LOVE YOU
AS THE DARKNESS FADES
DAMAGE IS DONE
END OF SCENE ONE
