The Worrying
Oli Fox Lyrics

Do you, don't you miss me when I'm gone?
Do you think of me and feel my absence when we are apart?

Cause I've been friends with silence for too long
I have been suffering in loneliness for too much time.

And you come, you go, you're gone without trace
You enter and exit my life without leaving a mark or an impression.

So do you, don't you miss me when I'm gone?
Do you think of me and feel my absence when we are apart?

Or are you the worst idea, the best mistake coming to me
You could be a terrible idea or a great mistake that I am making.

Cause my mind is burning wild, I need
My thoughts are uncontrollable, I require something to tranquilize them.

Something
Anything that gives me peace of mind.

Something to stop the worrying
Anything that could stop my anxiety and distress.

The demons running through my bones
The fears and worries that are consuming me entirely.

So I don't to have to wonder at all
So I don't have to think or doubt anymore.

Tonight
As the day ends, I want to be at peace.

Are you scared to care for tears on my face?
Do you feel uneasy to show concern for my emotional display?

Or did my name found a brand new hiding place?
Or did you stop talking about me to avoid conflicts?

Cause you said you're afraid to let me go
You express fear of losing me, yet you drift away without a thought.

But are you frightened not to deal with the unknown?
But perhaps you are scared of confronting the uncertainty of our relationship.

I've been losing sleep
I have been unable to rest or sleep properly.

Tell me am I yours to keep?
Can you assure me that I am in safe hands?

Am I the first thing on your mind?
Do you give me the top-most priority in your thoughts?

Am I the reason we survive?
Am I the cause of our being together?

Cause darling I am worrying
Because, my darling, I am really anxious.

So don't to have to wonder at all
So I won't have to question or ponder anymore.
