When it's Gone

Orange haze

Morning grey

Lingers longer today

Than it should

Western winds

Storming in

Stoking embers

We misunderstood

So we justify

Everything we fear

So safe inside

Illusions never real

And we can't go back

To distant memories

And still we have to ask

Did we know all along, all along

That it's too late to save when it's gone

All it takes is a flame to go wrong

Then it's too late to save when it's gone

Yes, it's too late to save when it's gone

Time to heal

Time to breathe

Time to sift through

The ash at our feet

Some regret

Some remorse

Something left

Empty and incomplete

Still we justify

Everything we fear

So safe inside

Illusions never real

And we can't go back

To distant memories

And still we have to ask

Did we know all along, all along

That it's too late to save when it's gone

All it takes is a flame to go wrong

Then it's too late to save when it's gone

Yes, it's too late to save when it's gone

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Ahhhhhhh

Did we know all along, all along

That it's too late to save when it's gone

All it takes is a flame to go wrong

Then it's too late to save when it's gone

Yes, it's too late to save when it's gone
