Done Is Done Lyrics
You don’t know what you’re looking for
You’re lost in the past
You don’t know who you are anymore
How long will it last?
Well, it will last as long as you’re gone
In the future or past.
There’s a crusher ahead
Because you mind real fast.
If it was yesterday I would let you go
Are you happy if the answer’s no?
It will soon be the time to make it so, yeah...
What’s done is done
You need to set your ways
And that is you
You in your future days
The space is slim
So meet my everyone
So, please, I said
What’s done is done
You don’t know what you are any more
Just know where you’ve been
It doesn’t matter how it all was before
Let the present begin
Big decision for a man in the daze
To leave the haze, yeah...
Movement is a sign of life, keep moving forward, life
There is no going back from here in spite of all your fight
There’s no point in blaming yourself for the wrongs you’ve done
The game that is really numb, no need to be on the run
So, please, I said
What’s done is done
What’s done is done
What’s done is done
You’re lost in the past
You don’t know who you are anymore
How long will it last?
In the future or past.
There’s a crusher ahead
Because you mind real fast.
If it was yesterday I would let you go
Are you happy if the answer’s no?
It will soon be the time to make it so, yeah...
You need to set your ways
And that is you
You in your future days
The space is slim
So meet my everyone
So, please, I said
What’s done is done
Just know where you’ve been
It doesn’t matter how it all was before
Let the present begin
Big decision for a man in the daze
To leave the haze, yeah...
There is no going back from here in spite of all your fight
There’s no point in blaming yourself for the wrongs you’ve done
The game that is really numb, no need to be on the run
What’s done is done
What’s done is done
What’s done is done

i just bought the album this morning and i dunno at the moment it seems really average n shitty to me it might grow on me but im not liking it so far =(
I personally love this album. Done Is Done is a personal favourite but I think the whole album is one of their best!
I think this song is pretty self explanatory, what's done is done so just accept it and get on with things, the chorus sums up the whole song in my opinion.
I heard this song on the NHL 09 soundtrack so I'm not familiar with the band or their lyrics. I do believe the lyrics here are incorrect. Here is what I hear:
You don�t know what you�re looking for You�re lost in the past You don�t know who you are anymore How long will it last?
Well, it will last as long as you�re gone In the future or past. There�s a crusher ahead Makeup your mind real fast. If it was yesterday I would let you go Are you happy if the answer�s no? then its suddenly time to make it so, yeah...
What�s done is done You need to set your ways And that is you You in your future days mistakes and slips are made by everyone So, please, accept What�s done is done
You don�t know where you are any more Just know where you�ve been It doesn�t matter how it all was before Let the present begin Big decision for a man in the daze To leave the haze, yeah...
Movement is a sign of life, keep moving forward, life There is no going back from here in spite of all your fight There�s no point in blaming yourself for the wrongs you�ve done The game that is really numb, no need to be on the run
So, please, accept What�s done is done What�s done is done What�s done is done
I could be wrong as there is definitely an accent within the singing .
I think that while the meaning is obvious, it stretches a little deeper. The person is beating themselves up until they are powerless to move forward at all. The "daze" could be interpreted as drugs or just as the cloudiness of vision that comes with feeling overwhelmed by the troubles of life.
Either way, its a positive song which speaks many truths. Keep moving forward, don't dwell on the past which you cant' control. We all fuck up, accept that and lets keep moving.
