Don't Put Dirt On My Grave Just Yet

**Don't Put Dirt On My Grave Just Yet** by *Hayden Panettiere* is featured in The Crystal Army Who I've Been Tour, the forty-eighth chapter of Push to the Limit. It is sung by Julie.

After it is revealed that Julie will be joining the Crystal Army Who I've Been Tour, they are met with protest from conservative folk, Juliet haters, and Mandy fans who believe it is disrespectful for Julie and Sam to go out on tour after having two children out of wedlock so soon after his engagement with Mandy broke off.

At a concert in Newark, New Jersey, they are bombarded with protesters outside, who shout hateful things at Julie before she can get inside the stadium. While Julie considers apologizing to Mandy publicly once and for all, especially after news break online and she receives social media hate, Alex reminds her that she doesn't have anything to apologize for and is not to blame for what those people believe happened. Julie decides to instead sing "Don't Put Dirt On My Grave Just Yet" and invites Alex to join her on the stage and play the guitar with her. Before performing, she announces to the audience and the press that she will not apologize and that her haters will not make her disappear, as well as that she is releasing the song as her new single.

During the performance, Alex comes out to join her and Amity is upset by the fact that Julie has chosen to release the song on the same date as her, which will likely overshadow her. Her friends discuss the song's potential to be a hit, especially given the controversy around it.

Footage of the performance trends immediately and the song's sales rocket. The song becomes Julie's biggest hit so far.

## Lyrics

**Julie:**

I thought things couldn't get much worse

but guess what they did

you hit my heart upside with a wrecking ball

Oh but that's what I get

I'm not going nowhere

I can live all my prayers

Cause I'm done playing nice

I'm done running for life

Cause ya think that you got me scared

This time it's goodbye trouble

I feel the light at the end of this tunnel

I get stronger with every step

Come hell, come high water

You push on me I'm gonna push back harder

Got a whole lot more than little bit me left

Oh, so don't put dirt on my grave just yet

No, don't put dirt on my grave just yet

Everyone can save their breath

They can spare me the change

You can point your finger somewhere else

If you're looking to blame

I'll give you something to believe

Nothing on me says defeat

No I'm not looking back so you better think fast

If you think you can cut me deep

This time it's goodbye trouble

I feel the light at the end of this tunnel

I get stronger with every step, yeah

Come hell come high water

You push on me I'm gonna push back harder

I've got a whole lot more than a little bit left

Hey, so don't put dirt on my grave just yet

Oh, don't put dirt on my grave just yet

Hey, well it's gonna take more, gonna take more,

Gonna take more to put me under

Gonna take more, gonna take more

Gonna take more than that

To put me under

This time it's goodbye trouble

I feel the light at the end of this tunnel

I get stronger with every step

Come hell, come high water

You push on me, I'm gonna push back harder

I got a whole lot more than a little bit left

Oh so don't put dirt on my grave just yet

Don't put dirt on my grave just yet

No, don't put dirt on my grave just yet
