I had a dream that I was God
And every word I wrote was law
Thought I was writing a novel
Not a suicide note
But I let the devil loose
And he raised hell under this roof
Heaven help me, I wasn't asleep
I started a fire too close to home
And now it's raging out of control
There's nowhere to run so I'll watch it all go up in flames
It's too late for me
I'll swallow my pride
There's smoke in my eyes and it's only a matter of time
It's too late, too late for me
So we went our separate ways
Darker now than yesterday
There's no chance in hell
I'll forgive myself
I started a fire too close to home
And now it's raging out of control
There's nowhere to run so I'll watch it all go up in flames
It's too late for me
I'll swallow my pride
There's smoke in my eyes and it's only a matter of time
It's too late for me
Just ash in the wind
Burned too fast and bright
The phoenix has met his end
It's too late, too late for me
I stole a spark from the sun
(From the sun)
It's a dead star reminding everyone
I stole a spark from the sun
(From the sun)
It's a dead star reminding everyone
I had a dream that I was God
I started a fire too close to home
And now it's raging out of control
There's nowhere to run so I'll watch it all go up in flames
Go up in flames
It's too late for me
I'll swallow my pride
There's smoke in my eyes and it's only a matter of time
It's too late for me
Just ash in the wind
Burned too fast and bright
The phoenix has met his end
It's too late, too late for me
(It's too late, too late for me)
It's too late for me
(It's too late, too late for me)
Too late for me
(It's too late, too late for me)
(It's too late)
It's too late, too late for me
