Ravine Angel - It's Already Too Late

Tree branches forming neurons overhead
We've been given this sacred light to protect
We give mouth-to-mouth just to keep it alive
It works for an hour or two at a time
You twist the knife, you twist the fate
I have no time now left to wait
These kids get younger most every day
And I don't understand half the shit that they say

There's no room
Left for debate
My time is gone
It's already too late

I wonder if I could have done it better
Had my will been iron, had my aim been true
I've failed at everything I ever did
At everything, I ever tried to do
But I'm honest, to be honest
All I ever really wanted
Was a moment where I could become great for you

But now all I do
Is ruminate
My time is gone
And it's already too late

Your time never came
Because you never learned how to ask
For what you want, you'd just wait
And it worked
Til you grew up and looked around
And found that every bridge was burnt
Your whole life
Ends up played back refracted
In the eyes of your lonely wife
She sees inside
And can pinpoint the day when that
Part of you finally died
The part that tried
