[Verse 1]
I wanna see the world
And find out what the truth is
And chase after a girl
But I can't bear the newness
[Pre-Chorus]
It's who I am
I've found it's easier giving up
So I'll close my eyes
Pretend I've never seen the skies
And fear the only things I've ever loved
[Chorus]
So if you've got an anxious heart
You're not the only one
And I won't let you fall apart
If you don't let me run
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Breakdowns, I've had a few
But I always come out laughing
And I romanticize the cost
But I'm not troubled like a genius
I'm just troubled like a man that's lost
Ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
And I still remember how it was
When all these questions only served to pass the time
And now it feels like asking ain't enough
[Chorus]
So if you've got an anxious heart
You're not the only one
And I won't let you fall apart
If you don't let me run
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
And the boy says something's wrong
But the people don't believe
And the wolf comes in the night
When your mind is trying to sleep
And I'll make up ways to steel my joy
'Cause when it's real I don't believe it
And I swear it's just like being
The village, the wolf and the boy
[Outro]
I wanna feel the sun
And find out what the truth is
And chase after a girl
'Cause no matter how it breaks me
I can't bring myself to hate this world
