I killed a man today
I'm not sure he didn't deserve his fate
Although it may have been in haste
Too late
My blood's on my own hands
He dampened the sounds I've made
I can't help but feeling a shade disgraced
Though I suppose it's not a race
I'm anxious
To make up for time I lost
In case I didn't finish the job
Overthinking the means to an end
Need to do it instead of pretending
And I want to say I'm sorry
But I'm always late to the party
Resigned to slow decay
Arduous in rendering my own fate
One may label me reprobate
No matter
Where gray cells won't stay the same
I assured myself before
Should I find another chance to perform
I would stay calm before the storm
Regardless
I promise I'm here this time
And I vow to get it right
Cos I'm overthinking the means to an end
Need to do it instead of pretending
And I want to say I'm sorry
But I'm always late to the party
When I said that I vow to get it right
It sounded great by day, but I'm trembling at night
Some have said I don't even try
But they don't know the voice that I fight
Here we go again
He always gets me in the end
I hope he'll let me see my friends
Every once in awhile (I'm anxious)
Better set my story
Cos I'm always late to the party
I'm always late to the party
Always late to the party...
