Clone Lyrics - Metric
Review The Song (1)
Call me out
My regret
Only makes me
Stronger yet
Nothing I've ever done right
Happened on the safe side
It's the other way
I'm missing everyone I know now
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to take you on all the rides
I was afraid to tell you that
Back to that
Photograph
Can you clone me?
I look like everyone you know now
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to turn it around or change my mind
It's too late in the day to take you on all the rides
It's too late in the day to tell me I'm off the path
We're already in the aftermath
Call me out
My regret
Only makes me
Stronger yet
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to turn it around or change my mind
It's too late in the day to take you on all the rides
It's too late in the day to tell me I'm off the path
We're already in the aftermath
My regret
Only makes me
Stronger yet
Nothing I've ever done right
Happened on the safe side
It's the other way
I'm missing everyone I know now
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to take you on all the rides
I was afraid to tell you that
Back to that
Photograph
Can you clone me?
I look like everyone you know now
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to turn it around or change my mind
It's too late in the day to take you on all the rides
It's too late in the day to tell me I'm off the path
We're already in the aftermath
Call me out
My regret
Only makes me
Stronger yet
It's too late in the day,
Too late in the day to turn it around or change my mind
It's too late in the day to take you on all the rides
It's too late in the day to tell me I'm off the path
We're already in the aftermath

You cant clone a mistake, they make you unique | Reviewer: Diocletion | 7/25/12
Really this is about the music not the lyrics, but it seems slightly obvious that it is about the act of breaking up with someone and living with the regret and knowing that saying it is over is the best thing.
The "too late in the day" is emily saying that the relationship is over and that they can knowlonger do things in a relationship because they are an aftermath.
In the end I think that the clone is a play on the concept the only time the word is mentioned is in retrospect to an event in a photo, but what Emily has done by breaking up is making an original action of her independence.
Sorry that this is anal retentive, I'm just in love with this song right now
