"WASTE KID" Lyrics:
————————————
Slipping away so far,
So far from who we are,
We're nothing now we're bored,
I don't wanna stay here wasting.
Lingering on as the flame,
Of a single candle,
I don’t think I can handle another day if it’s the same,
As all the other smothered mistakes,
Hardened into the memories of an elderly wax brain.
Slipping away so far,
So far from who we are,
We're nothing now we're bored,
I don't wanna stay here wasting.
I’m not gunna stay here wasting,
I’m not gunna be your waste kid,
I’m not gunna stay here wasting,
Another year in the Riv.
Another year in the same,
Redundant ways we were raised,
Living life in an open casket,
Walking dead as if the world was still our grave,
Safe place to stay afraid,
To hide away the fear,
That's building into rage,
We're burning out,
Slowly now...
Slipping away so far,
So far from who we are,
We're nothing now we're bored,
I don’t wanna stay here wasting.
I’m not gunna stay here wasting,
I’m not gunna be your waste kid,
I’m not gunna stay here wasting,
Another year in the same...
Small town slowed down pace,
Still feeling out of place,
Have we become the basketcases we swore we'd never be?
Wasting,
I’m not gunna stay here wasting,
I’m not gunna be your waste kid.
If I have to stay here wasting,
This town will be a garden of ashes,
Arsonist with all the blame,
Ideologist without the shame,
I'll be burning out hot now as the flame.
Wasting,
I'm not gunna stay here wasting,
I'm not gunna be your waste kid,
I'm not gunna stay here wasting,
Another year insane.
I'm not gunna stay here wasting,
I'm not gunna be your waste kid,
As the basket case,
Feeling out of place,
I'll embrace and face the change.
