Lyrics
[Intro – soft piano, distant city ambience]
You said you’d be fine…
“Just a normal night.”
…That was the last lie time told me.
⸻
[Verse 1]
Phone lights flicker, I decline again
“Busy right now, I’ll call you when—”
Fate don’t wait for a better time
It cuts the thread without a sign
Sirens screaming through the dark
Didn’t know they tore you apart
By the time I saw your name
You were already gone from this place
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – strings rise, tension]
No goodbye, no final breath
Just a message… then your death
All the words I never said
Now they rot inside my head
⸻
[Chorus – emotional explosion]
I came back too late… too late…
Your world was already erased
All the power I didn’t have
Couldn’t buy one second back
I would burn every tomorrow
Trade it all to kill this sorrow
But time won’t bend, it seals my fate—
I came back… too late
⸻
[Verse 2 – anger creeping in]
They say “move on,” like it’s a choice
Like I don’t still hear your voice
Like I didn’t let you die
Chasing things that don’t survive
World kept spinning like it’s fair
Like you weren’t just lying there
Cold and gone while I was blind
Building dreams that left you behind
⸻
[Bridge – stripped, broken]
If I answered…
If I stayed…
If I chose you…
Would you still be here?
⸻
[Final Chorus – desperate, raw]
I came back too late… too late…
Now there’s nothing left to save
All this guilt I can’t erase
Carved forever in my veins
⸻
[Outro – fading piano]
Time took you.
…So I’ll take everything else.
