  • Don't make this any harder
    Everybody's waiting
    Walk on's almost over
    Teenagers on ice
    Try to keep my distance
    Talking of forgiveness
    Once upon a poolside
    Underneath the lights

    What was the worried thing you said to me?

    I'll follow you everywhere
    While you work the room
    I don't know how you do it
    Tangerine perfume
    I'm not doing anyone
    Any kind of favors
    Watching airplanes land
    And sink into the pavement

    What was the worried thing you said to me?

    I can't keep talking, I can't stop shaking
    I can't keep track of everything I'm taking
    Everything is different, why do I feel the same?
    Am I asking for too much?
    Can't hear what you're saying

    What was the worried thing you said to me?
    I thought we could make it through anything

    This is the closest we've ever been
    And I have no idea what's happening
    Is this how this whole thing is gonna end?
    This is the closest we've ever been

    Don't make this any harder
    Everybody's waiting
    Walk on's almost over
    Teenagers on ice
    Try to keep my distance
    Talking of forgiveness
    Once upon a poolside
    Underneath the lights

    What was the worried thing you said to me?
    I thought we could make it through anything Writer/s: Bryce David Dessner, Carin Besser, Matthew Donald Berninger
