Little Too Late

Do you believe in fate? Do you think there's a place Where we find another person who makes life seem alright It's an ancient belief A romantic deceit I think it's foolish to try 'Cause I could walk the whole beach Leave the silence to speak I could leave the other side of my bed open for years I could go it alone I would piss and I'd moan But soulmates wouldn't appear And I think it's just a little played out (ooh, it's so played out) Never wanna sit on my hands like I'm waiting for you I think it's just a little played out (ooh, it's so played out) 'Cause helplessness is nothing new Have you ever heard the sound of a lover who lost? It's like the din of a quiet parade Have you ever seen the ghost of a soulmate forgone? They're casting shadows where there's already shade 'Cause they're a little too late for love 'Cause they're a little too late for love Who is buying this shit? Let your ego get hit There's a hundred other ways to disempower your life Than driving yourself insane Over someone with no name You think will show up sometime And all the best stories suck You may think there's a rut I think the beauty always lies beneath the daily mundane And if this thought keeps you sane It's worth repeating again Love is a choice that you make And I think it's just a little played out (ooh, it's so played out) If I were to sit on my hands like I'm waiting for you I think it's just a little played out (ooh, it's so played out) 'Cause helplessness is nothing new Have you ever heard the sound of a lover who lost? It's like the din of a quiet parade Have you ever seen the ghost of a soulmate forgone? They're casting shadows where there's already shade 'Cause they're a little too late for love 'Cause they're a little too late for love
