for cryin' out loud

wasted

I'll dig up all my doubt
and turn it inside out
and plant a little trust where it used to be
I'm beginning with the end
anyone who's my friend
for the wrong reasons is gonna walk I'll watch em leave

So why did I wait so long
I held myself for ransom with an empty gun

wasted
stare into the sun too long
wasted
what was left when I was wrong
wasted away

I'll take everything I hate
and throw it all away
and make a little room for the good I need
and hang up all my fears
I've collected through the years
cause it falls on deaf ears when I say I'm afraid to say

so why did I wait so long
I held myself for ransom with an empty gun

wasted
watching myself fade away
wasted
try to change the past
wasted away

I'll dig up all my doubt
and turn it inside out
and plant a little trust where it used to be
I'll take everything I hate
and throw it all away
and make a little room for the good I need

wasted
procrastination overload
(I'll dig up all my doubt)
wasted
I'm ready waiting to explode
(and turn it inside out)
wasted
for everything that I've delayed
(plant a little trust where it used to be)
wasted away
