Lyrics

Don't You Do It

Maybe you're lost just a little,
maybe it's more than a little,
as hard as it is,
you still gotta fight it --

Feel like you're stuck in the middle,
locked up inside of this riddle,
it's not yours alone,
you don't need to hide it --

And I don't know the answers,
and I don't the way,
but I can stand here with you,
and hunt for the light of day,
and help you through it,
but whatever you do,
don't you do it
don't you do it,
whatever you do,
don't you do it --

Whatever you fear or remember,
whatever might make you surrender,
it's okay to cry,
it's okay to show it --

We all march inside of the mystery,
it's part of the heart of our history,
we'll be alright,
and somehow you know it

And I don't know the answer,
and I don't the way,
but I can stand here with you,
we'll hunt for the light of day,
and I'll help you through it,
but whatever you do,
don't you do it

'Cause when you take all your hope away,
it's not just your own you take
it's all of the the hearts you break,
all of the hearts you break

Yeah and I know that it's so hard,
but it's all gonna be okay,
yes I know, that it's so hard,
and it's all gonna be okay

Don't you do it,
whatever you do,
don't you do it.
