[Intro – strummed bass, reverb-heavy] Don’t push too hard tonight… [fragile falsetto echo] [Verse 1] Are you upset tonight? Tired but can't fall asleep? Lying awake and worrying About the promises you can't keep You know you can't please everyone In this crazy world we're in So don't push yourself too hard, love Let the healing now begin [Chorus – anthemic bass + synth layers] Don't push yourself too hard You're braver than you know Stronger than you seem to be Smarter than you show Don't push yourself too hard I'm right here by your side You are not alone tonight Let me be your guide [Verse 2 – more angular drums cut through] I know it's hard to face each day In a world that pulls you down Surrounded by the crab-minded But still feeling alone in the crowd The brave new world is waiting But it doesn't have to hurt So don't push yourself too hard, love You know what you're worth [Chorus – intensify synth riffs, higher falsetto harmonies] Don't push yourself too hard You're braver than you know Stronger than you seem to be Smarter than you show Don't push yourself too hard I'm right here by your side You are not alone tonight Let me be your guide [Bridge – drums break into half-time, synth swells] Someday the flood will be gone All our struggles will end The famine will turn to plenty And the sun will shine again Just because we failed before Doesn't mean we can't restart Remember I'm always with you When I'm done fixing my heart [Final Chorus – soaring falsetto, big synth stabs] Don't push yourself too hard You're braver than you believe Stronger than you seem to be Wiser than you can conceive Don't push yourself too hard I'm always by your side After I'm done with myself I'm all yours for life All yours for life Don't push too hard tonight [fading bass + synth echoes]
