[Verse 1]
I should've known better than to ever
Look to heaven questioning
Whether I've found it, put it up, sounded
Better than it looked
Now I'm your friend
Yeah, yeah, I'm stuck in this dead end
[Pre-Chorus]
And all these words, they come too late
You could never compensate
For this pain, oh (Oh)
[Chorus]
I should've said it all when I was close to you
I should've said it all when I was close to you
Like I was supposed to do
Like I was supposed to do, yeah
[Verse 2]
I should've known better than to be pacified
Now you just pass me by
I'm stumbling through this life like a man with no sight
No sight
Yeah, oh
Like a man that lost his fight
[Pre-Chorus]
And all these words, they come too late
You could never compensate
For this pain (For this pain, oh)
[Chorus]
I should've said it all when I was close to you
I should've said it all when I was close to you
Like I was supposed to do
Yeah, like I was supposed to do, oh, yeah
[Bridge]
It's too late
The hands of fate (Oh, the hands of fate, yeah)
Just won't wait (Oh, it just won't wait, no, it just won't wait)
Help me change (Help me change, help me change)
It's too late, oh (It's too fucking late, it's too fucking late)
The hands of fate (Oh, it's too fucking late, ooh)
Just won't wait (Oh, it just won't wait, no, it just won't wait)
Help me change (Help me change, help me change)
[Chorus]
I should've said it all when I was close to you
I should've said it all when I was close to you
Like I was supposed to do, yeah
Like I was supposed to do, oh
I should've said it all when I was close to you
I should've said it all when I was close to you
Like I was supposed to do, yeah
Like I was supposed to do
Oh, like I was supposed to do
