[Intro]
Clock on the wall keeps laughing at me,
Hands don’t move but the hours bleed.
I swear I had a plan once, maybe two,
Now I’m stuck in a room with nothing to prove.
Days blur out like smoke in the rain,
Same old thoughts, same quiet pain.
I keep saying “tomorrow I’ll change my mind,”
But tomorrow keeps passing me by.
[Breakdown]
Every dream I had is calling my name,
But I mute the sound and I shoulder the blame.
[Scream/Chorus]
I’ve been wasting time, watching life go by,
Watching all my chances wave me goodbye.
I’m standing still while the world’s in motion,
Drowning slow in a shallow ocean.
I keep saying I’ll be fine,
But I’m just wasting time.
[Breakdown 2]
Phone lights up but I don’t reply,
Too tired to live, too scared to die.
I wear my regrets like second skin,
Smile outside, but I’m paper-thin.
Everyone’s running, I’m stuck in place,
Counting the cracks in a familiar face.
I tell myself I’m “finding my way,”
But I’ve been lost since yesterday.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every door I pass feels locked inside,
I’m my own excuse, my own alibi.
[Scream]
I’ve been wasting time, watching life go by,
Watching all my chances wave me goodbye.
I’m standing still while the world’s in motion,
Drowning slow in a shallow ocean ahhhhh
I keep saying I’ll be fine,
But I’m just wasting time.
[Beatdown]
Maybe one day I’ll break the chain,
Stop blaming luck, stop feeding the pain.
If I fall, at least I’ll fall alive,
Not just breathing — but trying to survive.
[Final Chorus]
I’m done wasting time, watching life go by,
I’m tired of watching my future die.
If I burn, let it be in the light,
Not fading out in another night.
I don’t know how, I don’t know why,
But I’m done wasting time.
