[Verse 1]
Carpenter
Lean your body on me once more
Lean your body on me once more
Leave your body here
I'm not afraid of what everybody wants
You're what everybody wants
But I'm not what you would want
[Chorus]
I wasn't ready to hear you out
I wasn't ready to shut it down
I wasn't ready to talk it out
I wasn't ready to be let down
I wasn't ready to hear you out
I wasn't ready to move on out
I wasn't ready for what you were saying
But I'm more ready now
Yeah, I'm all ready now
[Verse 2]
Lost in space
I'm just spinning my wheels all day
I'm just spinning my wheels all day
Keep spinning your way
Cautionary tale
It was embodiment of fear
It was embodiment of fear
I was embodying fear
[Bridge]
I wasn't ready to hear you out
I wasn't ready to pull me out
I wasn't ready to move on out
But I'm more ready now
I wasn't ready to hear you out
I wasn't ready to pull me out
I wasn't ready to move on out
But I'm more ready now
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm all ready now
Tell it to me again
Well, I'm more ready now
Yeah, I'm all ready now
