Too Little, Too Late Lyrics
You crowd around me on the floor
Staring and observe and seeing what I'm fighting for
It's not in you, not like this
I'm only seconds away from caving in
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
It's so like you, discretion is all you can be
Screaming to see what is in between
I've been to hell and back, the quiet never lasts
It's not like you to take a risk
I'm only seconds away from caving in
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
With only seconds to go
Cause well end this world
With only seconds to go, come drop the kill
Reject the world that is broken
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
Too little, too late
Reject the world that is broken
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
Too little, too fucking late!
It's too late
It's too late
The time we spent is free
Gone away
Gone away
I'm only seconds away from caving in
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
With only seconds to go
Cause well end this world
With only seconds to go, give up the kill
Reject the world that is broken
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
It slips away
Staring and observe and seeing what I'm fighting for
It's not in you, not like this
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
Screaming to see what is in between
I've been to hell and back, the quiet never lasts
It's not like you to take a risk
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
With only seconds to go
Cause well end this world
With only seconds to go, come drop the kill
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
Too little, too late
Reject the world that is broken
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
Too little, too fucking late!
It's too late
The time we spent is free
Gone away
Gone away
And I'm running out of time
Now I'm running away to free my mind
My mind
With only seconds to go
Cause well end this world
With only seconds to go, give up the kill
Don't give in
The time slips through our fingers
It slips away
Reject the words that are spoken
Don't give in
The final hour will linger
It slips away

""Too Little Too Late" is about the feeling of the whole world coming down on you, but never letting it get the best of you. We drive ourselves on the idea of doing exactly what we want to do, and what makes us happy no matter what anyone says. For us, sometimes the pressures of performing and doing the right thing for a crowd can be pretty intense, but in the end, we pull through it and do our thing. You just have to find strength in yourself and the ones around you that care about you. It's our way of saying with all that you do, "Don't ever give up!" "
The lyrics straight out of the album booklet are...
You crowd around me on the floor You're staring and observing and seeing what I'm fighting for It's not in you, not like this
I'm only seconds away from giving in And I'm running out of time Now I'm running away to free my mind My mind
It's so like you, indiscretion is all you can be Screaming to see what is in between I've been to hell and back, the quiet never lasts It's not like you to take a risk
I'm only seconds away from giving in And I'm running out of time Now I'm running away to free my mind My mind With only seconds to go As we end this world With only seconds to go, corrupt the kill
We test a world that is broken Don't give in As time slips through our fingers It slips away We test the words that are spoken Don't give in Our final hour will linger Too little, too late
We test the world that is broken Don't give in As time slips through our fingers It slips away We test the words that are spoken Don't give in The final hour will linger Too little, too fucking late!
It's too late It's too late The time we spent is frayed Gone away Gone away
I'm only seconds away from caving in And I'm running out of time Now I'm running away to free my mind My mind With only seconds to go As we end this world With only seconds to go, corrupt the kill
We test the world that is broken Don't give in As time slips through our fingers It slips away We test the words that are spoken Don't give in Our final hour will linger It slips away
Amazing song. :D (I think it's just about trying your best, IMO. I'm kind of terrible at finding deeper meanings in things though)
