Spilt Milk lyrics

I don't think I ever know

If I ever really want it

Could be why I'm never sure

If I ever really got it

And I guess it's maybe easier

Not to think too much about it...

A house a car a family and friends

Yeah all it means to justify the ends

But sometimes... I wonder...

In the back of my mind

Sometimes... I wonder...

If I'm wasting all my time

Sometimes... I wonder...

If I'm putting off my real life...

What I could've done

Where I could've been

When I should've gone

Why I should've seen

Who I would've loved

How I would've dreamed

And if it's always always too late...

I don't think I ever know

That I ever really need it

Could be why I'm never sure

That I ever really feel it

And I think it's maybe easier

To guess I really mean it...

A house! A car! A family and friends!

Yeah all it means to justify the ends

But sometimes... I wonder...

A girl! A smile! A holiday and sex!

Yeah all it takes

To make sense of the rest

But sometimes... I wonder...

In the back of my mind

Sometimes... I wonder...

If I'm killing all my time

Sometimes... I wonder...

If I'm giving up my real life...

What I could've done

Where I could've been

When I should've gone

Why I should've seen

Who I would've loved

How I would've dreamed

And if it's always, always too late...

And every day that I let slide

Is one day more I never try

To break the world

To make my fate

And with every day that I let go

It's one day less I ever know

If it's always

Always too late...
