I Know the Truth

How have I come to this?

How did I slip and fall?

How did I throw half a lifetime away

Without any thought at all?

This should've been my time

It's over, it never began

I closed my eyes to so much for so long

And I no longer can

I try to blame it on fortune

Some kind of shift in the stars

But I know the truth and it haunts me

It's flown just a little too far

I know the truth and it mocks me

I know the truth and it shocks me

It's flown just a little too far

Why do I want him still?

Why when there's nothing there?

How to go on with the rest of my life

To pretend I don't care

This should've been my time

It's over, it never began

I closed my eyes to so much for so long

And I no longer can

I try to blame it on fortune

Some kind of twist in my fate

But I know the truth and it haunts me

I learned it a little too late

I know the truth and it mocks me

I know the truth and it shocks me

I learned it a little too late

Too late
