Two Years Too Late

(Verse 1)

Met you on a random day, didn’t think twice,

August heat, you walked right by.

My best friend laughed, said, "He’s your type,"

I rolled my eyes, said, "Nah, just a child."

(Pre-Chorus)

But then you texted, first time ever,

Didn’t know love, but you made me better.

Four days in, you said my name,

Felt my heart burst into flames.

(Chorus)

But I ran, ran so far,

Left you wondering where we are.

Not ‘cause I didn’t love you too,

Just scared you’d see what’s really true.

So I cut the cord, shut the door,

Said things that hurt me more.

Now you’re waiting, but I can’t escape,

What if two years is too late?

(Verse 2)

Masked up, made up, all a disguise,

Lived through filters, pixelized.

You saw the dream, not the real me,

Didn’t want you waking up to a lie.

(Pre-Chorus)

So I let you think I never cared,

When every word was a silent prayer.

Broke your heart just to save my pride,

Now I cry alone at night.

(Chorus)

But I ran, ran so far,

Left you wondering where we are.

Not ‘cause I didn’t love you too,

Just scared you’d see what’s really true.

So I cut the cord, shut the door,

Said things that hurt me more.

Now you’re waiting, but I can’t escape,

What if two years is too late?

(Bridge)

Maybe you’ll move on, maybe you’ll forget,

Maybe you’ll see me and feel regret.

Or maybe, just maybe, you’ll still wait,

But what if I’m the one too late?

(Outro)

Ran too far, lost my way,

Now I’m stuck in yesterday.

If I come back, will you stay?

Or will love fade, two years too late?
