Don't Regret Never Trying
dustbox Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why do you always
keep watching me?
When I take action, you say
"Stop! What if you just fail?"
You always whisper
doubts in my ear
Don't take away my passion
Fuck you! please, go away!

What are you doing
on my shoulder?
When I say something,
you say "Stop! you'll be hated"
You only whisper
such negative words
Don't take away my passion
Fuck you! please, go away!
I have something I want to do
There are many things
I have never done yet
If I do nothing,
my life will be over in a flash
Don't regret, never trying Oh
I don't want to say
"I wish I had"
Don't regret, never trying!

Why do you always
keep watching me?
when I take action, you say
"Stop! What if you just fail?"
You always whisper
doubts in my ear
Don't take away my passion




Fuck you! please, go away!
go away!
