Do It Alone - Greensky Bluegrass

Heaven’s gonna pass you up

For living life like this

Leaving all but nothing

There’s nothing for you to miss

That’s why you’re filling up

Doesn’t feel good enough

Empty as the words I say

Short as a long-lived day

While it all gets spent

Looking for conceived innocence

Hollow as a handmade fist

If you won’t give for it

But mercy doesn’t hide in wait

For a suitable punishment

What is left won’t pass

Just pushed off and named the past

Why do we do it alone?

Why do we do it alone?

Probably you can take too much

Without feeding what you lack

And when everything else is lost

Too tired to bring anything back

But who can come and fix this last

When everyone has failed the chance?

Why do we do it alone?

I can’t do it alone

Why do we do it alone?

I can’t do it alone

Why do we do it alone?

I can’t do it alone

Why do we do it alone?

I can’t do it alone
