Too Late
Arkaeo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ascend
From my bed
Lost my heart with my head
Send my love to my friends
And pray they won't remember me, lend the best of
Your love, hold it tenderly
Say that I'm never enough, you've gotten into me
Have you fallen in love, you're calling suddenly
Is it my Angels or my Demons preaching love to me
I tried a million times
To rip your heart out rip your heart out
Don't think I get anything right
Sip and pass out, won't wake up now
I'm so lost how have you been
I'm too numb can't feel a thing
I tried a million times
My heart gave out
It's too late now
Lately I've been feeling like I've worked too hard
I must admit, I must admit
That lately I've been giving it my all just to let myself down
So slowly
Yeah I'll give up
In the morning
In the mourning
In the morning
I tried a million times
To rip your heart out rip your heart out
Don't think I get anything right
Sip and pass out, won't wake up now
I'm so lost how have you been
I'm too numb can't feel a thing
I tried a million times




My heart gave out
It's too late now

Overall Meaning

Arkaeo's song "Too Late" communicates the struggle of a person who may be dealing with something intense, possibly addiction, as well as their own self-doubt and insecurities. The main character seems lost and overwhelmed, with a broken heart and mind, seeking solace in their friends' love. However, they are reluctant to receive it, presuming they are unworthy of it. They also question if they are receiving love from the right sources, or if their inner angels/demons are the ones talking to them. One can see this conflict between hope and despair playing out, with the individual struggling with their purpose and meaning in life, to the point they give up and let themselves down.


The phrase, "I tried a million times, to rip your heart out, rip your heart out," implies an attempt to overcome the addiction, but it proves too great a challenge, and the person goes back to their destructive ways. The following line, "Don't think I get anything right, sip and pass out, won't wake up now," portrays a person who seems to have lost hope in life, as they keep drinking and passing out, without any zest for life. The line, "My heart gave out, it's too late now," suggests that the person's addiction has caused damage to their physical body and that trying to make amends now is too late.


Overall, "Too Late" is an emotionally charged song that delves into the complexities of addiction and self-doubt, emphasizing the struggle between the heart and the mind.
