"Everything Matters" lyrics - GLEN PHILLIPS

Do I make you better still?
And isn't that what brought you here?
Making some excuse will get us both nowhere
Life is never easy but it's almost fair

And there is nothing that doesn't matter
There is nothing that doesn't matter
Every word is a seed that you scatter
There is nothing that doesn't matter

Shut your mouth and just be with me
We throw stones all too easily
And every angry word is like a cigarette
A moment of relief
A nail in your chest
It's better to never start

There is nothing that doesn't matter
There is nothing that doesn't matter
Every word is a seed that you scatter
O there is nothing that doesn't matter
Everything matters

Lay down here right next to me
We'll forgive every little thing
Every heartless thought
And every thoughtless deed
And I will carry you and you will carry me

O there is nothing that doesn't matter
Nothing that doesn't matter
Every word is a seed that you scatter
There is nothing that doesn't matter
Everything matters
Everything matters
Everything matters
