I’ve Gone Too Far (George Olsen 2001)
Is it the end of the story
Or just a blank page
Will I ever rebuild
What I tore down in rage
Will you ever call me
& see through my pain
Or have I fin’ly succeeded
Do you think I’m insane
Chorus
I’ve gone too far
But my purpose was blind
I’ve smashed up the jar
With my love inside
How could you have fathomed
The depth of my need
If I’d never shown you
The Dark Side of me
A glimpse was enough
If I’d only held back
From freezing the picture
In bold white and black
Chorus
I’ve gone too far
But my purpose was blind
I’ve left you with scars
That don’t heal overnight
A tricky triangle
Was easy for you
But I just cannot handle
Amounts greater than two
I gave you devotion
But you still wanted more
& though it was only half-empty
I smashed my cup on the floor
Chorus
I’ve gone too far
But my purpose was blind
I’ve left you with scars
That don’t heal overnight
I’ve shown you my madness
That I keep locked away
Through the bars on the window
I’ve let some escape
I’ve shown you my genius
My flashes of light
And that current between us
Is still gripping me tight
Chorus
I’ve gone too far
But my purpose was blind
I’ve left you with scars
That don’t heal overnight
