This is a song about the end of a career, relationship, life, planet. There comes a time when it’s too late.
Too Late by Willy Grigg 7/22/22
Thought I saw you running, you knew this day was coming
When you decided, this can wait
Now your sky is falling, there is no hole to crawl in
I’d like to help, but it’s too late
Don’t look innocent, dear. We both know how we got here
We know there isn’t an escape
No reason to get formal, we haven’t reached new normal
We can’t go back now, it’s too late
Tell me have you ever seen a clearer sky?
Everywhere you look, man, it’s hot and dry
We could have talked this over, when things were still in order
But you had too much on your plate
Such a sad catastrophe, this didn’t really have to be
We had our chance, now it’s too late
