Lean by Jimmy Eat World Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You keep it simple at the start
And never question things too hard
Shouldn’t shock you when you’re down this far

[Chorus]
I’m not asking for a fix
I just need you close to reach
When I can’t stop myself at all
When I don’t lean on you I fall
Every single time I’m wrong
Every selfish trip I’m on
If I don’t lean on you I fall

[Verse 2]
When I think I’m so messed up
And when you think you’re so messed up
Gotta keep in mind that we’re just us

[Chorus]
I’m not asking for a fix
I just need you close to reach
When I can’t stop myself at all
If I can't lean on you I fall
Every single time I’m wrong
Every selfish trip I’m on
If I don’t lean on you
If I don't lean on you I fall
[Bridge]
If I can’t lean on you I fall

[Verse 3]
I’m hoping for the perfect day
When I look into the right face
And really mean it, saying “I’m okay”

[Chorus]
I’m not asking for a fix
I just need you close to reach
When I can’t stop myself at all
If I can’t lean on you I fall
Every single time I’m wrong
Every selfish trip I’m on
If I don’t lean on you
If I don't lean on you I fall
