Sometimes I just have to write to escape
It's too Late
Don't you know my story by now
I've told it a thousand times or more
about the woman who walked out my door
and never thought to look back
now I have to dress as a girl
it's the only way I can still see her
my soul's broken in two, if only you knew
don't you know my story by now
I've told it a thousand times or more
about the woman who walked out my door
and never thought to look back
now I look to Katie
she's the only one who hears me
and takes me to a special place
so I can face the human race
I know that you won't understand
the need to be a girl and not a man
but have you ever cried like me
have you ever died inside
now it's all far too late
I remember waving to my mum from the kitchen gate
she had a plate in her hand and a smile
Only I'd understand
nobody sees the blood that I spill
every time I see a girl in a dress
my soul slides away
sometimes I can't stand it
and I want to drink it all away
only Katie knows
I don't look back in anger but just in pain
I just fade away and hide
I stand up beside the fire place
wishing the flames could set me free
don't you know my story by now
I don't wanna be in a rock n roll band
I just wanna slip on a pretty dress
She ain't coming back
cause it's far too late
and when she died so did I
Katie sets me free
Katie helps me be
don't look back in anger
I know it's too late
as mum waves from the kitchen gate
It's far too late
