[Intro | isolated melodic bass riff | faint amp hum | distant echoed vocal] [Verse 1 | bass-led | sparse drums | clean guitar answers between lines] You stopped correcting me I thought we'd learned to let things go You started taking longer ways home I never asked what took so long You'd say "it's fine" a little differently I knew the words I missed the meaning I kept waiting for you to get mad Like silence couldn't be that bad [Pre-Chorus | bass drops out | eerie guitar harmonics | vocal close and dry] I thought we had more time You were already saying goodbye [Chorus | full band | dominant bass riff | gritty rhythm guitar | doubled ghost vocal] Too little Too late I finally hear what you were trying to say Too little Too late I finally know what I threw away You gave me signs I gave you reasons You gave me time I gave you nothing Too little Too late Now I finally mean it [Verse 2 | bass riff returns altered | palm-muted guitar | loose live drums] You stopped asking where I'd been I called it trust You stopped telling me your plans I called it space You'd sit beside me on the couch And stare at nothing for an hour I thought you liked the quiet I didn't know you were leaving [Pre-Chorus | drums fade | ringing guitar harmonics] I thought we'd talk it out You were already checking out [Chorus | full band | bass hook louder | guitar motif answers vocal] Too little Too late I finally hear what you were trying to say Too little Too late I finally know what I threw away You gave me signs I gave you reasons You gave me time I gave you nothing Too little Too late Now I finally mean it [Bridge | half-time | bass disappears | eerie repeating guitar motif | whispered vocal] I wish you'd screamed I would've listened I wish you'd hated me I would've noticed You just got quiet And I let you [Final Chorus | full band | bass riff maximum prominence | layered ghost echoes] Too little Too late I finally hear what you were trying to say Too little Too late I finally know what I threw away You gave me signs I gave you reasons You gave me time I gave you nothing Too little Too late Now I finally mean it Too little Too late I finally mean it [Outro | bass riff alone | clean guitar trail | tape hiss] You don't have to forgive me I already waited too long
