Do What You Have To Do Lyrics

What ravages of spirit
conjured this temptuous rage,
created you a monster,
broken by the rule of love?
And fate has led you through it.
You do what you have to do.
And fate has led you through it.
You do what you have to do.
And I have the sense to recognize
that I don't know how to let you go.
Every moment marked
with apparitions of your soul.
I'm ever swiftly moving,
trying to escape this desire,
the yearning to be near you.
I do what I have to do.
The yearning to be near you.
I do what I have to do.
AND I have the sense to recognize
that I don't know how to let you go.
I don't know how to let you go.
A glowing ember, burning hot,
AND burning slow.
Deep within, I'm shaken by the violence
of existing for only you.
I know I can't be with you.
I do what I have to do.
I know I can't be with you.
I do what I have to do.
And I have THE sense to recognize
But I don't know how to let you go.
I don't know how to let you go.
I don't know how to let you go.
