Marillion Don't Hurt Yourself Lyrics

There'll come a time when all of this is over
Something else will grow and take it's place
The brand new car: scrap metal in a junkyard
The children playing will grow up and leave home

Put it away this dream you can't stop dreaming
Put it away this anger and desire

The open road is infinitely hopeful
Take all those memories and throw them in the fire

[Chorus]
And don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself anymore
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself anymore

There's an old man on a warm and sunny island
No job, no money, just a smile to call his own
Know what he says? The past can only haunt you.
Live for today. Each day's an open door

[Chorus]
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself anymore

[Bridge]
Nothing to lose is nothing to fight over
The shining stars!
They've seen it all before.

[Chorus]
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself anymore

Dust keeps coming. Rust keeps coming. Weeds keep growing.
Where you going?
