It's Too Late - Bob Mould

Lately I’ve been thinking

And how the whole world’s come undone

Everybody’s got this sinking feeling

Feeling they’re on the run

But I know a place where time stands still

I can picture it in my mind

But I’m not sure if we can get there

(There is no reason reasons rhyme

Why can’t you see we’re almost out of time)

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

To cover what you’ve done

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

To call for anyone at all

Well I guess I should be so brave to think that I’m the only one who knows

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

To cover what you’ve done

Oh no we need a change (This world’s stranger now)

Now is not the time to run away (There must be a way)

A way that we could listen to the warning signs so pay attention

This is my intention to prevent this fate before it gets too late

And as the hands of the clock go round and round

And the world keeps marching on

Can you afford to let it fall now?

(The fish in all the streams are dying

Fluorocarbons fill the sky

And I don’t really want to die before my time has come)

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

To cover what you’ve done

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

To call for anyone at all

Well I guess I should be so brave to think that I’m the only one who knows

It’s too late it’s too late it’s too late it’s too late

Now now

It’s too late

(Lately I’ve been thinking

Haven’t had that sinking feeling now)
