Sarah McLachlan, "Do What You Have To Do"

what ravages of spirit
conjure this tempestuous rage
created you a monster
broken by the rules of love

and fate has led you through it
you do what you have to do
but 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

burning ember
burning hot
burning slow
and 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
but I have the sense to recognize
that I don’t know how to let you go

context: This could probably apply for most of season seven. It's such a beautiful song.
