Wasting Away
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.
This is the voice of something to believe in
A tattered flag, a change of a season
Everybody hooked on negativity
Won't you come along
So many people full of disillusion
It's time to re-think, make a new conclusion
I'm wasting
I'm wasting away
You get one shot - what you gonna' do?
So here's a call from a voice to you and me
Let's take a break from yawning apathy
Turn on, tune off, use your energy, just answer a call
Where are you ever really going here?
Is the destination ever clear?
I'm wasting
I'm wasting away
You get one shot - what you gonna' do?
The answers they offered
They never touched me and until i find one, i'll never really be free
So where's the voice of something to believe in
A tattered flag, a change of the season?
Everybody adrift in negativity
Won't you come along
I'm wasting
I'm wasting away
You get one shot - what you gonna' do?
You get one shot - what you gonna' do?
You get one shot - what you gonna' do?
