Wasted Time By Skid Eow

 

You and I together in our lives

Sacred ties would never fray

Then why can I let myself tell lies

And watch you die every day?

I think back to the times

When dreams were what mattered

Though talking youth naivete

You said you'd never let me down

But the horse stampedes and rages

In the name of desperation

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you look at yourself

When you think of what

You left behind?

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you live with yourself

When you think of what

You've left behind?

Paranoid delusions they haunt you

Where's my friend I used to know?

He's all alone, he's buried deep within

A carcass searching for a soul

Can you feel me inside

Your heart as it's bleeding

Why can't you believe

You can be loved

I hear you scream in agony

And the horse stampedes and rages

In the name of desperation

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you look at yourself

When you think of what

You left behind?

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you live with yourself

When you think of what

You've left behind?

You said you'd never let me down

But the horse stampedes and rages

In the name of desperation

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you look at yourself

When you think of what

You left behind?

Is it all just wasted time?

Can you live with yourself

When you think of what

You've left behind?

The sun will rise again

The earth will turn to sand

Creation's colors seem to fade to grey

And you'll see the silky hands of time

Will write your final rhyme

And end our memory

Oh, no!

I never thought you'd let it get this far, boy

Oh, I never thought

I never thought you'd let it get this far, boy

Oh, no!

I never thought

I never thought you'd let it get this far, boy

No!

I never thought you'd let it get this far, boy
