Greensky Bluegrass - Do It Alone lyrics

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
