No more light so get used to the dark
Spend some time with the hurt that’s in your heart
Been sitting here many times before
You don’t need the key when you’ve broken down the door

But is it love and happiness
Or another hopeless little accident

Love can be too hard on your brain
Let it close your eyes for you and you’ll never see the same
Put a scar on your heart
It’s hard to change
Scar on your heart

You stayed clear for a number of years
You don’t face the facts and you never face your fears
If you fill your head up with history
How can you appreciate this mystery?

Chorus
I Wouldn’t Do That To You
Carey Ott
D.O.C. – January 2002

Looking at the soft skin of yesterday’s light fall upon you
Rising up off the pillowy haze that we gaze through
It’s a song that I sing because I have to
I make a choice to raise my voice
But you’re hard to refuse

I wouldn’t do that to you
I wouldn’t do that to you
I couldn’t drag it out
You couldn’t settle me down
I wouldn’t do that to you

Peel off the yellowing pages of memories in black and white
When love was just a sweet idea we could lie beside
And it’s a price that we pay because we want to
But it’s the worst to see the hurt
When she’s so much to lose

Chorus

Trying on the tough skin as Saturday night falls around you
I’m thinking of the billowing blaze that surrounded you
Now it’s the song that you sing because you have to not ‘cause you want to
And it’s the hardest thing to choose when there’s so much to lose

Chorus
