Later That Day

Some help to push the weight A bit further down the way A precious gift Come get me out of this The glow of distant comfort found Something to focus the attention on for now Sure looked like fire to me Sure looked like fire to me Though a hundred nights between The desire and the heat Was it every day between Or the closer look that settled things Still way too good to erase Hey it's getting late Oh it might have been It might have been Me choking on the oxygen It should have been It should have been The weekends filled with everything Take the class, give it a try Make a decision here tonight 'Cause we're running out of time Too close, too fast, halfway there Wait, slow down but don't go anywhere Sure felt the heat run through me Still I feel the heat run through me Then it passes on Sure felt the heat run through me Still I feel the heat run through me But it passes on Oh it might have been It might have been Me trying too hard to get in It should have been It should have been The only thing left worth trying Whispers followed with silence Words extinguish the fire Oh it might have been It might have been The bitter taste of oxygen It should have been It should have been The weekends filled with everything It might have been It might have been Me trying too hard to get in It should have been It should have been The only thing left worth trying
