“At one point when we were on the road, I felt like I had a target on my back. I felt like there were a lot of things getting thrown at me that I had to deal with and I felt alone? I was the only one who could really understand myself.” – Adam Gontier

2. As made famous by Three Days Grace. Original songwriter: Adam Gontier, Brad Walst, Neil Sanderson, Gavin Brown License courtesy of: Universal Music Publishing UK This title is a cover of Never Too Late as made famous by Three Days Grace.

On One-X, the follow up to Three Days Grace’s 2003 self-titled debut, the band explores that sentiment with alarming honesty. A raw, confessional album, One-X finds frontman Adam Gontier delving into a sense of utter loneliness that ironically comes from being constantly surrounded by other people. One-X is simultaneously the story of Gontier’s personal destruction on the road, and a universal tale of feeling like an outsider.

“From front to back, the lyrics of One-X explore the different problems I had. I felt singled out. I wanted to be normal and I just wanted someone, anyone to help me. At a point, I finally came to realize that no matter how singled out I felt, there were so many others out there like me. I realized, ‘okay, I’m not alone’.” – Adam Gontier

Part of learning he was not alone came from learning his band mates felt similarly isolated, dismayed with the falseness of life on the road.

“Being on tour can be strange sometimes,” said bassist Brad Walst. “All these people around you seem to know you, but they really don’t and you don’t know them either, but you carry on as if you do. It’s weird how you can still feel alone in a crowd of people. In fact the only ones we could really relate to were the true fans. They know what’s going on inside your head because they are the ones that are hearing it in your music.”

After two years on the road, the band was coming to terms with what they experienced. “The whole process tuned us into the phenomenon of urban isolation – being in a big city, where people are inches away, but you feel miles apart” said drummer Neil Sanderson. “We’re used to the opposite, being from rural Ontario, where you’re miles away physically, but you feel inches apart.”

Oddly enough, the band escaped by isolating themselves again. Packing up, getting out of the city and moving into Ontario cottage country, the band eliminated all outside distractions to write One-X. “We basically wrote the record around a fire with acoustic guitars,” said Walst. “It was all about getting back to our roots.”

When the band emerged, they had a heavy, highly emotional album in hand. One-X is rife with anguish-fueled vocals, heavy beats and rough chords. Backed by the thunderous rhythm section of Neil Sanderson on drums and Brad Walst on bass, and the thrashing, urgent riffs of Barry Stock on guitar, One-X is a roller coaster ride through Gontier’s psyche. Intensely honest, Gontier leaves nothing out; it sounds as if he’s ripping pages from his journal.

“Pain” finds Gontier stubbornly adhering to the vices that hurt him, while letting in the voice trying to heal him. The almost sweetly melodic verses come from “someone telling me there’s something wrong and you have to do something about it,” says Gontier, while the grizzled choruses find him clinging to the pain.

“Animal I Have Become,” the first single off One-X, is Adam’s “realization that a change has to happen and you have to ask for help.” With stomping bass lines backing him up, Gontier pleads, “Somebody get me through this nightmare / I can’t control myself.” It’s also startlingly open, as he realizes the impact of revealing his lyrics: “So what if you can see / the darkest side of me.”

“The road definitely got the better of us at times,” said Sanderson, echoing the sentiment of “Animal I Have Become.” “I know from my own point of view that you can kind of lose yourself out there and get caught up in the moment. It’s just the lifestyle. I know Adam went through times when he would do anything to distance himself from the strangers around him. We were on a bit of a downward spiral out there but we pulled out of it.”

While all of the tracks explore painfully personal struggles, “Never Too Late” was the hardest track for Gontier to write. Opening with a solitary guitar, which could easily signify loneliness, the track is instead the album’s most optimistic song.

Adam admits, “It’s the one that touches me the most when we play it live and when I listen to it now that the record’s done, it still gives me shivers because it has so much to do with me. There’s a sliver of hope in that song as well.”

With lyrics like “Do you think there’s no one like you / We are,” “One X,” the album’s final song, is the one that Three Days Grace fans connect to the most. “It says you’re not alone and there are lots of people out there like you,” Gontier explains. “Having gone through these struggles, we are able to re-introduce ourselves and our music to our fans? It’s time to let everyone else in on our lives over the last two years.”

As we hear Gontier sing with his world-weary vocals at the end of the album, the band has developed a new sense of purpose; what started out as fear and pain has led to confidence and triumph.

“I need to figure out who’s behind me,” Adam sings in the album’s final lines. “We are / We stand above the crowd.”

'Never Too Late' is a song by the band Three Days Grace. It is the third single from the band's second album One-X.

Popularity and censorship[edit]

Three Days Grace Never Too Late Lyrics

The song reached the number one spot at the MuchMusic Countdown on June 29 for one week. It also reached the top of the BillboardHot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. This is the band's most successful song from One-X despite the fact that their prior hits 'Just Like You' (from their self-titled album), 'Animal I Have Become', 'Pain' and a few singles that were less successful did better on the U.S. charts. This is due to 'Never Too Late' peaking at number 71, where 'Just Like You' peaked at number 55, 'Animal I Have Become' at number 60 and 'Pain' at number 44. Despite not hitting number one, it was more successful than any of the singles from One-X and it stayed longer on the charts than their number one hits at 43 weeks, beating 'Animal I Have Become' by two weeks and 'Pain' by a hefty 13 weeks. It is the band's second most successful song only behind 'I Hate Everything About You' on the rock charts at 45 weeks.

This song is also the band's only cross-over hit to date charting on both Mainstream Top 40 and Adult Top 40 formats at number 12 and number 13. Their three prior hits failed to chart since 'Animal I Have Become' and 'Pain' were released to commercial radio after 'Never Too Late', even though they came to all rock stations before it and 'Never Too Late' was the highest charting single on the Canadian charts, making 'Never Too Late' as Three Days Grace's most successful song from One-X. Its music video has also reached more views on YouTube than 'Pain' has (with over 67 million) with 'Never Too Late' having over 100 million views, making it their second most viewed video only behind 'I Hate Everything About You' with over 116 million views (views as of April 2016).

The track managed to resurge in pop airplay, peaking at number 14 on Mediabase, and was added by the pop stations in the US, Z100 and Y100. It is the only song to be released to Mainstream Top 40 radio since their 2003 hit 'I Hate Everything About You' peaked at number 28 and 'Never Too Late' hit number 12. Certain radio stations and Sirius XM The Pulse play a version of the song which censors the phrase 'end your life' in the chorus to 'change your life' to eliminate the suicide reference from the song. It also quiets the heaviness of the guitar. It appeared on Now! 26, the only song from the album to appear on a Now! album in the U.S.

On October 23, 2007, Three Days Grace released a single featuring 'Never Too Late' and two Clear Channel acoustic recordings of 'Pain' and 'I Hate Everything About You'.^[2] On February 12, 2008, an EP was released through iTunes containing the album version of 'Never Too Late', an acoustic version and the music video.^[3]

Song meaning and usage[edit]

This song's meaning was explained by former Three Days Grace frontman, Adam Gontier, at a live performance on March 7, 2007 at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C., where he stated, 'This song is about being in a very dark place, but being able to see a way out.' Then, on the Live at the Palace 2008 DVD, he explained it as, 'Feeling like you don't really belong here anymore, and it's about wanting to sort of end everything. But really, this song is about not giving up at all.'The song was featured in a promo for the television show Eleventh Hour.

Music video[edit]

The video begins with a little girl (played by Matreya Fedor) in her room dancing with her parents. Later, it shows her older self (played by Adam Gontier's then-wife, Naomi Brewer) struggling against doctors as they strap her down to a hospital bed. As they restrain her, the woman looks toward her younger self dancing with her parents (through the woman's eyes, her young-self appears to have sprouted or be wearing monarch butterfly wings on her back while dancing). The video then cuts to her younger self, showing a man touching her and she smiles hesitantly. The video shows her dancing with her parents, who have bandages over their eyes, signifying that they don't know what is going on. Later, hands marks covered in a black substance are seen all over her, her bedroom, and the man's hand. It is revealed that she was sexually abused as a child, explaining her traumatic breakdown when she is older. As the woman remains strapped helplessly to her hospital bed, the straps from head-to-toe are replaced with the man's hands. Her younger self is shown again; hiding in her room from her attacker, who lifts up the bed to find the girl lying in a fetal position when she sees an angel who fights off the man, scattering his feathers over the girl's room in the process. As the angels's feathers rain down on the grown woman's bed and the man's hands – in place of the straps – lose their grip on her and die (in reference of the attacker's defeat by the angel), eventually her older self is able to overcome her fear and leaves the hospital bed smiling, while her younger self goes back to her own bed.

The band is seen performing the song throughout the video, though it also shows scenes Adam Gontier singing and playing guitar in the girl's bedroom.
