Wasted

(album: The Things We Left Behind - 2009)

Getting high don't make you happy
Still it's all you ever do
One day the life of the party
Now you haven't a clue
All that was a distant memory
Now you're feeling so blue
A passing tear still it makes you laugh
As another morning comes too soon
You think you're so smart
You got your plan you've got it all worked out
You can fool your friends but you won't get far
With that broken heart of yours
Forever letting you down
You can't explain it
Might as well get wasted

Every day starts with the promise
This'll be the last time
But come the late night with its sorrows
And you feel like getting high
When all the world seems so far away
And you don't care why
Precious sleep is all you really need
But you just can't close your eyes
You got so much love to give
But now it's all just slipping away
Can't take yourself for another day
With that broken heart of yours
Forever letting you down
You can't explain it
Might as well get wasted

You think you're so smart
You got your plan you got it all worked out
You can fool your friends but you won't get far
With that broken heart of yours
Forever letting you down
