    Lyrics
    She's always living like she's running out of time
    Too much just ain't enough to keep her satisfied
    Her plastic card is filled with nothing comes to mind
    It's now her occupation that she's overqualified

    The looks are always so deceiving
    The truth is always misconstrued

    To you...
    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you
    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you too

    He's talking shit about how it's better way back when
    He lives every waking moment as means to an end
    We are we are but I'm not
    I never used to be
    So god bless your fucking past and to hell with your glory

    The looks are always so deceiving
    The truth is always misconstrued

    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you
    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you too

    She packs her bags and says goodbye and bon voyage
    Farewell we'll see you in hell I hope you rest in pieces
    Fuck you
    Oh..oh oh oh oh...
    Oh..oh oh oh oh...

    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you
    Too much too soon
    Too little and now your coming unglued
    Too much too soon
    Too late and now it sucks to be you too

    Woah...oh oh oh oh..
