Too Late
Stone Fury Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the one, who hides behind your own disguise
You think one of you belongs in every home
I'm the one you blinded, when we were alone
You can't see it's just for you I sing this song

Even though you're crying now, you don't why
It's obvious, the harmony is already gone
Can't go back, we're wasting time the deed is done
See you later, I don't need you hanging on

Too late, I know your name
We just have lost the spark you played, heavyweight
Much too late, there is no more time, you know
You're not so precious, that I can't let go

Even though you're crying now, you don't know why
It's obvious the harmony is already gone
Can't go back, we're wasting time, the deed is done
The well is dry, time to say good bye

You did me wrong, thought I play along




I want out, now, cause you're not what I need
Get away, get away, no one like you is gonna make me bleed

Overall Meaning

The song “Too Late” by Stone Fury is about a disillusionment of a relationship that has lost its spark. In the opening lines, the singer addresses their partner who hides behind a façade, believing that they are a perfect fit for every home. The singer then mentions how their partner’s blindness to their true selves led to the end of the relationship, and that the song is sung specifically for them. The singer notes that their partner may be dismayed and crying, but it’s already too late, the harmonious relationship they shared has ended. The singer concludes that they don’t need their partner to hold on since they’re not that precious.


The lyrics express a sense of disappointment and betrayal. The phrase “the deed is done” implies that something has been completed, and there is no going back. The chorus emphasizes the permanence of the end: it is “too late” to save the relationship. While the partner may be caught up in the fact that it’s over and is crying, the singer has already accepted that it’s time to move on. The chorus further accentuates the singer's desire to move on from their partner, who had played a significant role in their life. The last line of the song, “no one like you is gonna make me bleed,” reiterates the singer’s desire to get away from their partner.
