Lyrics

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.

And so the sky becomes a dream

I never dreamt because I'm just too busy

Waiting for nothing and wasting away

Don't tell me it's too hard, you were never there from the start

I'm not about to give this up, giving up was never enough (no)

And so the sky becomes a dream

I never dreamt because I'm just too busy

Waiting for nothing and wasting away

And so the sky it watched my dreams

Fall to pieces right in front of me

Coz I'm just too busy waiting for nothing

And wasting away

And I never wished for anything more, than to find what I've been looking for

And I swore to myself I wouldn't lie to myself, how could I let this happen?

So I pull myself aside, take the time to tell myself it's alright

Coz you weren't there to dry my eyes

And so the sky becomes a dream

I never dreamt because I'm just too busy

Waiting for nothing and wasting away

And so the sky it watched my dreams

Fall to pieces right in front of me

Coz I'm just too busy waiting for nothing

And wasting away

Wasting, wasting away

Wasting, wasting away

And so the sky becomes a dream

I never dreamt because I'm just too busy

Waiting for nothing and wasting away

And so the sky becomes a dream

I never dreamt because I'm just too busy

Waiting for nothing and wasting away

And so the sky it watched my dreams

Fall to pieces right in front of me

Coz I'm just too busy waiting for nothing

And wasting away
