The colors bleed in from the downslide
It’s always been a part of the game
You're still standing around in squares Wondering who's to blame
For all the years
Gone by much quicker when you're young
We'll still smell the flowers bloom
Long after you're gone
You won't waste your time
On lonely tales and nursery rhymes
Waste your time
On clouded words and borrowed time
But I have, I have to
The bottom just burned from the downslide
It’s always been a part of your game
Still standing around
Feeling proud with your daddy’s name
But can you feel my heart
Gets darker with the sun
So eager to please your past
That you're willing to forget the one
Who won't waste your time
On lonely tales and nursery rhymes
Waste your time
On borrowed words and clouded minds
But I have, I have to
Bitterness will get the best of you
Emptiness will get the best of you
Loneliness is always there for you
Happiness will be the death of you
Waste your time
On lonely tales and nursery rhymes
Waste your time
On borrowed words and clouded minds
But I have, I have to
I have...
