Waste
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 sit here all day long, singing the same song
A page in the scrapbook is where I belong
What's the point in getting out
Conversing is just plain wrong
I once took a day job, but that didn't last long
When I worked the counter, we somehow got robbed
Leave it or take it, 'cause this life right here is right where I belong
It's no secret - I'm a waste
A clear misuse of space
Take me back to my own happy, imaginary place
Yeah, please - let me rest in peace
I sit here all day long, beating myself at pong
My mom pays the rent - how could I go wrong
I can't acknowledge that some people make it after all
I try being social, but that takes a toll on me
Sooner or later, I'm gonna' explode
Nothing beats solitude, who cares if you're nothing
Nothing at all
It's no secret - I'm a waste
A clear misuse of space
Take me back to my own happy, imaginary place
Yeah, please - let me rest in peace
