Lyrics

DO WHAT YOU?RE TOLD
By Phil Melling and Mark Gustomski

Staring in the distance, out the corner of my eye
Parting from a strange world, the memories call
Looking for a feeling, got to fill this empty hole
There?s no use in crying, I fear to feel at all

I thought I heard a voice, across the rhythm of the road
Searching for a smile, I watched (his/her) face come alive
Led deaf by the silence, blind darkness all around
Sitting in my car, it?s desire I drive

Chorus:
Do what you?re told, whisper in the night
Do what you?re told, don?t look inside
Do what you?re told, whisper in the night
Do what you?re told, leave by morning light

Into the night (he?ll/she?ll) take me, led by a façade
Summoned by a call, clear across the land
I remember words I said, gasping quick for air
Don?t wait ?til tomorrow, love me while you can.

Driving back to my house, I heard ringing in my ears
Emptiness fills my heart, the beating of my tears
I came to and asked myself, was it worth a try
Wanting (him/her) to love me, but (he/she) always made me cry.
