Background
"Too Late" was originally written to deal with Chester's personal feeling about God, but it was changed lyrically to make it more about a relationship between two people rather than a relationship between him and his God.
This was done because, according to him, some people get uncomfortable with lyrics that deal with religion. He said, "I don't want to preach to anybody because I know that not everybody believes what I believe in. In "Too Late," there are times I feel like I want to be closer to God but wonder if I will ever be able to get there, because at times I've been so far down the other road. The reality is that I know in my heart that's completely ridiculous, because if I want that I can have it. Sometimes people lack the confidence to have that. That's what that song is about."[1]

Lyrics
It's cold and dark I think I'm going insane,
The end is coming it's true,
I'm all alone and I am screaming your name,
It seems that's all I can do
But it's too late to turn back now
It's too loud to hear a sound,
I'm so lost I cannot be found,
It's too late to turn back now
It's hard to focus when your life is a blur,
It's hard to see the truth,
How can I move on when there's so much to learn, (So much to learn)
And every road comes back to you?
But it's too late to turn back now
(It's too late to turn back now)
It's too loud to hear a sound,
(It's too loud to hear a sound)
I'm so lost I cannot be found (can't be found),
It's too late to turn back now
But it's too late to turn back now
(It's too late to turn back now)
It's too loud to hear a sound,
(It's too loud to hear a sound)
I'm so lost I cannot be found (can't be found),
It's too late to turn back now
Now....
I'm so lost I cannot be found (can't be found),
It's too late to turn back now
