Wasting Time
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.
I'm just a waste of her energy
And shes just wasting my time
So why dont we get together
And we could waste everything tonight
And we could waste
And we could waste it all tonight
I don't pretend to know what you know
Now please dont pretend to know whats on my mind
If we already knew everything that everybody knows
We would have nothing to learn tonight
And we would have nothing to show tonight
But everybody thinks that everybody knows
About everybody else but nobody knows
Anything about themselves,
Because theyre all worried about everybody else
Love is just a waste of our energy
And life is just a waste of our time
So why dont we get together
And we could waste everything tonight
And we could waste
And we could waste it all
But everybody thinks that everybody knows
About everybody else but nobody knows
Anything about themselves
Because they're all worried about everybody else
