[Verse 1]
Languish, won't you leave me
Cause I'm trying so hard
And, still, I feel the weight of
Every pound, like an anchor
Through the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
And, sometimes
I hear myself say, "No"
Before I try
And, even if I did it all wrong
Would that be so wrong
It's been so long, oh
[Chorus]
So, give me the heat
Up from the floor
I need to feel
The blood rush more
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless
Give it to me
I'm down on the floor
Make me believe
This can't be ignored
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless with you
Careless with you
[Verse 2]
No, it's not my business
But he built bridges
None I'll ever see, but
That don't make no difference
Cause, in the same sense
I'm not losing sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
And, sometimes
I hear myself say, "No"
Before I try
And, even if I did it all wrong
Would that be so wrong
It's been so long, oh
[Chorus]
So, give me the heat
Up from the floor
I need to feel
The blood rush more
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless
Give it to me
I'm down on the floor
Make me believe
This can't be ignored
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless with you
[Post-Chorus]
Why can't I be
Why can't I be
Why can't I be
Careless with you
Why can't I be
Why can't I be
Why can't I be
Careless
[Bridge]
Bury me in anything
I know you want to
Bury me in anything
You know that I want you
Bury me in anything
I know you want to
Bury me in anything
I know you want to
[Chorus]
So, give me the heat
Up from the floor
I need to feel
The blood rush more
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless
Give it to me
I'm down on the floor
Make me believe
This can't be ignored
I want to be
Careless
Why can't I be
Careless with you
[Outro (with Bridge overlapping)]
Languish, won't you leave me
Cause I'm trying so hard
And, still, I feel the weight of
Every pound, like an anchor
Through the ground
Even if I did it all wrong
I did it all wrong
Oh, oh
(Bury me in anything)
(I know you want to)
