Lyrics
Every generation，blames the one before
All of their frustrations，come beating on your door
I know that I'm a prisoner to all my Father held so dear
I know that I'm a hostage to all his hopes and fears
I just wish I could have told him in the living years
Crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thoughts
Stilted conversations，I'm afraid that's all we've got
You say you just don't see it，He says it's perfect sense
You just can't get agreement，in this present tense
We all talk a different language，Talkin' in defense
Oh（Say it loud）Say it loud
（Say it clear）you can say it clear
（You can listen）Oh as well as you hear
You know（It's too late）Oh It’s too late
（When we die）It‘s too late when we die
（To admit） we don't see eye to eye
So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the bitterness that lasts
So don't yield to the fortunes
You sometimes see as fate
It may have a new perspective
On a different date
And if you don't give up
And don't give in
You may just be OK
So say it say it say it loud （say it loud ，say it clear）
Oh say it clear
（You can listen）You can listen as well as you hear
You know it's too late（It's too late when we die）
Oh it’s too late when we die
（To admit）To admit we don't see eye to eye
I wasn't there that morning
When my Father passed away
I didn't get to tell him
All the things I had to say
I think I caught his spirit
Later that same year
I'm sure I heard 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
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
（Say it loud）Say it say it loud
（say it clear）Say it clear
（Say it loud，say it clear）
（Say it loud，say it clear）
（Say it loud，say it clear）
