🕯️ "A Little Too Late" By Sheryl Clyde / Thunderbird

[Verse 1] You laughed when I whispered the fire was near You turned away when I trembled in fear I sang of storms with a trembling hand But you were too busy building castles in sand [Pre-Chorus] Now the sky is falling in shards of regret And your voice shakes with questions I’ve already met [Chorus] 🎵 It’s a little too late now You should’ve listened the first time I warned Now you cry, “What should we do now?” While the seals are torn and the thunder roars What is left is the mercy you still can find Repent… while I cry my eyes out this time 🎵 [Verse 2] You mocked the ache in the songs I wrote Said I was crazy, or just too “woke” But I saw the famine, I felt the flame And I bore His name when you cursed my name [Pre-Chorus] Now you’re pounding on the ark as it closes shut Begging for oil with hands full of dust [Chorus] 🎵 It’s a little too late now You should’ve listened the first time I warned Now you cry, “What should we do now?” While the world breaks open, bruised and torn What is left is to kneel in the ash and pray Repent… while the watchers turn away 🎵 [Bridge] I don’t rejoice in your sorrow This was never the end I wanted to borrow But truth rings louder than comfort’s lies And prophets still bleed while the innocent die [Final Chorus – soft, breaking voice] 🎵 It’s a little too late now But not too late to fall on your knees While I cry… for the world, for you, for peace Repent… and maybe you’ll still be free Though I weep in the shadow of what must be 🎵 [Outro – whispered] I warned because I loved you. And I still do.
