Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner
To all my Father held so dear
I that I'm a hostage
To all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Oh, crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
conversations
I'm afraid that's all we've got
You say you don't see it
He says it's perfect sense
You can't get agreement
In this present tense
We all talk a different language
Talking in defence
Say it (say it loud), say it clear (oh say it clear)
You can listen as as you hear
It's too late (it's too late) we die (oh when we die)
To admit we don't see eye to eye
So we open up a quarrel
Between the and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the that lasts
So don't yield to the fortunes
You see as fate
It may a new perspective
On a different day
And if you don't give up, and don't in
You may be okay
So say it loud, say it (oh say it clear)
You can listen as well as you hear
it's too late, it's too late (it's too late)
When we die (oh, we die)
To admit we don't see eye to eye
I wasn't there morning
When my Father away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
I think I his spirit
Later that year
I'm sure I his echo
In my baby's new born tears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Say it loud, say it clear (oh say it clear)
You can listen as as you hear
It's too late (it's too late) when we die (it's too late when we die)
To admit we don't see eye to eye
So say it, say it, say it loud (say it loud)
Say it clear (come on say it clear)
Say it loud
(Don't give up, don't give in and don't look away 'til it's too late)
Say it clear
Say it loud (say it loud, say it loud)
