Wasted
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.
If you're not sorry for who you are
Why are you sorry for where you been?
I know you carry a secret star
The one you got from your invisible friend
I met you walking in the New York night
I said, "Why are you walking so slow?"
You said, "I'm looking for a book I can write
And after that I got no place to go."
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
We stayed connected underneath the storm
You told me all the places you come from
I had a feeling I was being born
Inside your world where my heart could never be more
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
Wasted, you need to find a place to cry
Wasted, I need to find a reason why
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
If you're not sorry for who you are
Why are you sorry for where you been?
I know you carry a secret star
The one you got from your invisible friend
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
Wasted, I need to find a place to cry
