lyrics

Great mishappenings
Too much too late
Too much too late
A lot to reckon with
It's a lot to reckon with
So much to evade

Lent your ears, warm body
Patient eyes focused on me
Don't worry about
The fog surrounding us
Don't worry about it

Let me tell you what I don't need
I don't need you worrying about me
You know you can always
Lay it on me
But I'm worried about you
Worrying about me

Spent my years
Such a long time
Making up excuses
And white lies
All my life I've failed
To take my own advice
If only I, if only I
C ould leave my body
Look me in the eye
You know you count on me, right?
You know you can always
Lay it on me on me, right?

Let me tell you what I don't need
I don't need you worrying about me
You know you can always
Lay it on me
But I'm worried about you
Worrying about me

Overnight all night long
Stayin up til the break of dawn
And when I hear it leave your lungs
Then it lives in both of us
You know I won't lead you on
You know I won't leave ya cold
You know I'm a stone to lean on
You don't need to worry about it
You don't need to worry about me
At all

Let me tell you what I don't need
I don't need you worrying about me
You know you can always
Lay it on me
But I'm worried about you
Worrying about me
