Vacant Sentiment

(album: Slowly Getting Better - 2021)

I said I'm just being honest
The only reason I'm calling
So you can gather up all your shit
And the mess you made with it
So if you're done being jaded
And universally hated
Consider dropping this masquerade
And accept the bed you've made

Yeah if you want to waste my time
Then fall in line
I'll never let you in
I told you don't waste your breath
With a vacant sentiment

We put our triumphs in writing
Nobody knew we were hiding
The truth of feeling so discontent
With a love I never meant
And though my lyrics were callous
I never said it with malice
I thought I felt that release of pain
But my heart still aches the same

So if you want to waste my time
Then fall in line
I'll never let you in
I told you don't waste your breath
On a vacant sentiment

Woah, woah
I said I'm just being honest
Woah, woah

But now I'm starting to listen
Reflecting on what was written
Cause growing means that you'll make mistakes
So you'll learn along the way
I try to keep myself grounded
I take in all my surroundings
Reflecting on all my past mistakes
With a purposeful embrace
And though my lyrics were callous
I never said it with malice
I thought I felt that release of pain
But my heart still aches the same

So if I'm going to waste your time (Waste your time)
I'll fall in line (Fall in line)
I'm sorry for
I'm sorry for my sins
I told you don't waste your breath

(I told you don't)
I told you don't waste your breath
(I told you don't waste your breath)
I told you don't waste your breath with a vacant sentiment
