Lyrics
Wasted Years
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a game life plays
Makes you think you're everything they ever said you were
Like to take some time
Clear away everything I've planned
Was it life I've betrayed
For the shape that I'm in
It's not hard to fail
It's not easy to win
Did I drink too much
Could I disappear
And there's nothing that's left but wasted years
There's nothing left but wasted years
If I could change my life
Be a simple kind of man, try to do the best I can
If I could take the sides
I'd derail every path I could
I'm about to die
Won't you clear away from me? Give me strength to fly away?
Was it life I've betrayed
For the shape that I'm in
It's not hard to fail
It's not easy to win
Did I drink too much
Could I disappear
And there's nothing that's left but wasted years
There's nothing left but wasted years
There's nothing left but wasted years
There's nothing left but wasted years
Was it life I've betrayed
For the shape that I'm in
It's not hard to fail
It's not easy to win
Did I drink too much
Could I disappear
And there's nothing that's left but wasted years
