"A Little Too Late" as written by and Toby Keith/scott Emerick/dean Dillon....
It's a little too late
I'm a little too gone,
A little too tired of just hangin' on
So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to
It's got a little too sad
I'm a little too blue
It's a little too bad
You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late
No I don't want to want to talk about what we can do about us anymore
Only time you and me wastin' is the time it takes to walk right out that door
Yeah talk about water under the bridge,
You should know by now girl that's all this is
It's a little too late
I'm a little too gone,
A little too tired of just hangin' on
So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to
It's got a little too sad
I'm a little too blue
It's a little too bad
You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late
There was a time,
This heart of mine,
Would take you back every time
Don't you know
It's been two packs of cigarettes
A sleepless night
A nervous wreck, a day ago.
Now you ain't got no business coming around
I'm closing up shop
Shuttin' us down
It's a little too late
I'm a little too gone,
A little too tired of just hangin' on
So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to
It's got a little too sad
I'm a little too blue
It's a little too bad
You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late
I'm big time over you baby,
It's a little too late
I'm a little too gone,
A little too tired of just hangin' on
So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to
It's got a little too sad
I'm a little too blue
It's a little too bad
You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late
No I don't want to want to talk about what we can do about us anymore
Only time you and me wastin' is the time it takes to walk right out that door
Yeah talk about water under the bridge,
You should know by now girl that's all this is
It's a little too late
I'm a little too gone,
A little too tired of just hangin' on
So I'm letting go while I'm still strong enough to
It's got a little too sad
I'm a little too blue
It's a little too bad
You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late

You were too good to be true
I'm big time over you baby
It's a little too late
I'm big time over you baby,
It's a little too late

When it starts off you kind of think you know how it's going to end. Irate spouse/boyfriend disgusted with girlfriend to the point where he's just going to wall her up alive into the basement as she helplessly watches. Smiling gleefully as he does it. End of story.
It's only at the end that you (and he) realize that the wall he's built between the two of them has trapped him, not her, inside and alone. Actually, it's at that point that she realizes she's free to leave and she does so. Hilarious.
I think it's a great analogy and a great video. I think it's a great song too.
