Mayer, John - The Age Of Worry Lyrics






Close your eyes and clone yourself
Build your heart an army
To defend your innocence
While you do everything wrong

Don't be scared to walk alone
Don't be scared to like it
There's no time that you must be home
So sleep where darkness falls

Alive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry
Go wild in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Know your fight is not with them
Yours is with your time here
Dream your dreams but don't pretend
Make friends with what you are

Give your heart then change your mind
You're allowed to do it
'Cause God knows it's been done to you
And somehow you got through it

Alive in the age of worry
Rage in the age of worry
Sing out in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, why should I care?"

Rage in the age of worry
Act your age in the age of worry
And say, "Worry, get out of here!"

Mayer, John The Age Of Worry Comments
  1. N.... d....

    0:18 he gets this crazy look in his eye right before the drums kick in and you know it’s about to go down lol

  2. P.... D....

    Thank you John. You will never know how much your music helps me to go through life when it gets hard. Rage in the age of worry

  3. S.... L....

    I’m totally shocked..I’m huge JM fan...however I somehow came across this particular song this morning.I have never heard it?I don’t understand why??but I am grateful I have.It is as well an awesome song...it also I find at times like people lives...then and now it starts in the beginning as a root...and it continues to grow and blossom...or it gets cut down.JM or may I say John has lived and is still living...continuing to move forward even more as he continues.Love our Legend’s ⭐️✨✨✨🕊🕊🕊🕊🤝🤝🤝🤝🕊🕊🕊🌹true blessing.

  4. S.... P....

    Did he thank twice?

  5. H.... T....

    that finger & foot work lets go johnny boy

  6. M.... K....

    I think his voice has restored quite well since this

  7. f.... ....

    Who is the solo guitarrist?

  8. L.... S....

    worry why should i care?

  9. K.... R....

    Imagine being John Mayer’s guitarist. 😳

  10. G.... M....

    I would love to hear Hozier do a cover of this song.

  11. j.... ....

    This sounds like a mind struggling before entering the confessional booth. But then realizing he had never been baptised, stepped out and laughed because he didn't have to say one word, since all would disappear as soon as the water splashed off off his forehead.

    I'll try to shut up and just listen to the music.

  12. S.... R....

    His right-hand technique is a joy to watch.

  13. M.... A....

    #LoveIt Lyrics right on.

    The Age of Worry

    John Mayer

    Close your eyes and clone yourself
    Build your heart and army
    To defend your innocence
    While you do everything wrong

    Don't be scared to walk alone
    Don't be scared to like it
    There's no time that you must be home
    So sleep where your darkness falls

    Alive in the age of worry
    Smile in the age of worry
    Go wild in the age of worry
    And sing Worry, why should I care?

    No you fight is not within
    Yours is with your timing
    Dream your dreams but don't pretend
    Be friends with what you are
    Give your heart then change your mind
    You're allowed to do it
    'Cause God knows it's been done to you
    And somehow you got through it

    Alive in the age of worry
    Rage in the age of worry
    Sing out in the age of worry
    And sing Worry, why should I care?

    Rage in the age of worry
    Act your age in the age of worry
    And sing Worry, get out of here!

  15. F.... M....

    Don't be scared to walk alone,Don't be scared to like it.There's no time that you must be Home so sleep where Darkness falls. Millenials this is a message to you,Don't be afraid to be the oddball and when things don't seem to work out for you and it seems like LIfe is going too fast,remember,this alloted time for when things should be done and achieved is a social construct

  16. Z.... ....

    Thank you John

  17. L.... ....

    L.... ....

  18. S.... B....

    Lovebthis✨🕊✨🙏✨🕊✨🙏👌👌👍👍🙂😍😘✨🙏✨

  19. K.... C....

    sweet creature by harry styles

  20. k.... d....

    That guitar solo tho

  21. L.... C....

    very Dylan-ish song.

  22. M.... M....

    can I just point out the footwork at 0:20 ....

    M.... M....

    Lol. Sing, play and dance - Mayer can do it all.

  23. A.... R....

    That John Mayer face during the intro though

    A.... R....

    Weirdly enough, its extremely effective to do that particular head bob while playing the intro. For me atleast.

    A.... R....

    Ted Mosby*

    A.... R....

    In that moment he looks like he’s as free as a bird.
    I guarantee you that he couldn’t give a shit how it looks

  24. V.... h....

    a very very inspiring and sweet sweet song for me John,Thank you

  25. M.... S....

    love John 😍

  26. J.... H....

    Does anyone know what model guitar this is?

    J.... H....

    By the looks of it, this is his Martin OM-28JM limited edition guitar which arent made anymore. Similar to this Martin makes the OMJM john mayer signature acoustic now. Also make the 00-42SC John Mayer Signature as well.

    J.... H....

    +Zimmy45 yea those stagecoach models are pricey

  27. D.... 9....

    I love that guitar om jm

  28. A.... O....

    What a great song by a great artist!

  29. R.... S....

    Eu amo esse cara😍 John❤

    R.... S....

    hey you beautiful human female, you're so hot girl pls be my date now

  30. J.... M....

    The song feels just right.... :) all those li'l life anecdotes wrapped up in superbly sung lyrics and melodic upbeats & riffs.

  31. I.... K....

    It was better to go with acoustic version for this.  john's voice is not there in this particular performance

  32. J.... ....

    sombody who knows where you can buy nice bandanas like john wears?

    J.... ....

    Jelle u can found it in Indonesia

  33. S.... V....

    Absolutely brilliant. Mayer is so underrated.

    S.... V....

    no he isn't

  34. a.... ....

    he is awesomeee :)love him <3

  35. j.... e....

    lmao at how he says "done to you.." at 1:48

    j.... e....

    +joseph eku I think he's looking at the crowd on the upper level hahaah

  36. d.... ....

    Great song! He looks fucking coked out of it here though!

    d.... ....

    @JamJamJes Wrong, I don't take drugs. Don't be so defensive just because you like the guy. It wouldn't be shocking if a singer takes drugs, it'd be more shocking if they didn't. Artists have a long history with drugs because they tend to find they write better music. He really does look coked out of it though.

    d.... ....

    I'd say he's just really into it or it sounds weird because he's trying to shake things up a little in the song. Of all places, it would be really weird if he did drugs before going on live television. I'm not saying it's impossible it's just highly unlikely. 

    d.... ....

    hes like this every performance so hes either taken a hell of a lot of coke or hes just into his music. id say the latter.

    d.... ....

    He's always like that, he's just into it

    d.... ....

    Bullshit he’s a perfectionist there’s no way he is on coke. You need to take some and try to engage in a complex activity under pressure

  37. C.... N....

    What guitar is THAT?! 0:30 

    C.... N....

    +Christian Nikodemus Looks more like an electric mandolin to me

    C.... N....

    That is a Hammertone OC12, an electric 12-string octave guitar. It’s tuned one octave higher than a standard 12-string. Essentially, it sounds like a 12-string guitar with a capo at the 12th fret.

  38. L.... D....

    That Fucking mandoline twelve string idk what ever the Fuck that us is really Fucking good. Dude is tear in up!

    L.... D....

    man, i need it, do you know what model it is ?

  39. �.... ....

    又是王菲大女兒的分享 才知此曲的風味

  40. P.... s....

    I think he's just absolutely amazing.Nice watching grow into himself as a man...I've only grown to love his music more over the years...he may not be the same 20+ year old boy,but he's one hell of a man.

  41. i.... ....

    Why are half the people recording
    Why do pele record in concerts
    They spend all this money to go and look at the screen of an iPhone instead

    i.... ....

    iDespiseMicrosoftWindows yeah I am in this in between stage I appreciate that they are there for me to view but I just can’t do anything but “feel” the music at a concert it’s like a trance I get goosebumps and even cried at this years John Mayer show and I don’t cry much really it was wild though it was almost spiritual feeling

  42. T.... S....

    just not the same singer as he used to be... and you can tell he's torn up about it...

  43. m.... ....

    If I saw John live I wouldn't waste a second on recording it. Viewing genius like this is once in a lifetime experience..

    m.... ....

    Kinda what his song 3x5 is all about

    m.... ....

    agree. i'm seeing him twice this year lucky me!

    m.... ....

    I use to think the same until I went to his concert. I ended up recording some of my favourite songs and it allows me to relive the moment again on my phone.

    m.... ....

    @Jeppe Stistrup Markussen he has no bad songs 😉

    m.... ....

    Especially when the concert is being professionally recorded by fancy cameras and equipment

  44. N.... S....

    Worry!! Why should I care!!??

  45. A.... ....

    My therapist...forever more Mr Mayer. Worry...why should I care....INDEED.

  46. R.... M....

    This is a good song for travelling

    R.... M....

    Thats probably because it may remind you of a nikon camera commercial in which they are traveling

  47. K.... K....

    ahaha whaddup with his face at the beginning xD

    K.... K....

    He's so stoned it's ridiculous lol

    K.... K....

    @John Stapleton
    uh... no. He had botox in his throat. He was recovering from throat surgery. Geez.

  48. s.... S....

    Damn that solo!!

  49. G.... R....

    jaja la cara que pone al tocar la intro :), es muy buena esta canción!

    G.... R....

    waakkajajajj no la habia visto...wena

  50. S.... K....

    One of my fav of all time! Wholeheartedly thanx John for such a gr8 inspiring & touching music. Can't stop listening this song. LONG LIVE JOHN!! :)

  51. B.... A....

    People recording with their phones.... Like:DUDE!! THIS WILL BE ON YOUTUBE IN ABOUT 3 HOURS, WILL YOU LOOK AT THE FUCKING SHOW AND TURN OFF YOUR PHONE!??!!

    B.... A....

    Straight up! You know they're recording it at a much higher quality, so why not just take in the experience through your own eyes instead of the lens of an iPhone?!

  52. B.... A....

    That leg dance.... Loveeeeee

  53. I.... S....

    Watched him live at Wembley, London two days ago and he played this. Lyrical genius, he is. His concert was mind blowing. His music is definitely better when you hear it live!

  54. G.... S....

    0 dislike, just the way it should be :)

  55. h.... ....

    You're awesome John!

  56. F.... N....
