Sunrise, lyin' here awake every day for a while
till I pass the line
Clear skies faded like a memory
Still don't understand what I can call mine

Ooh, baby, there's a boy in this room
With the same kind of looks, but it isn't you
I'm so empty that I can't even cry
But I'm giving it time, so I can live the lie

Too much too late, I'm in the back seat
Watching the world pass me by
Too much too late for you, baby
You ain't gonna bring back what I want

So far nothin' seems to motivate changing
Though I know the beat goes on
My star's driftin' through the open air
Still doesn't care when it meets the dawn

I keep reaching for a new substitute
'Cause it makes me forget that it isn't you
When I'm rating everything on a scale
I keep telling myself that I didn't fail

Too much too late, I'm in the back seat
Watching the world pass me by
Too much too late for you, baby
You ain't gonna bring back what I want

(Drop that beat)

Ooh, baby, there's a boy in this room
With the same kind of looks, but it isn't you
I'm so empty that I can't even cry
But I'm giving it time, so I can live the lie

Too much too late, I'm in the back seat
Watching the world pass me by
Too much too late for you, baby
You ain't gonna bring back what I want

Too much too late, I'm in the back seat
Watching the world pass me by
Too much too late for you, baby
You ain't gonna bring back what I want
