lyrics

if i don't deserve it, then what was the purpose
in acting like you feel that way
really is it worth it, you're just gonna hurt it
me, i cannot say the same

cause i'd never let it get to me
you could never set me free
only one can do that is me
no matter how hard you believe

(chorus)
and i don't wanna waste my mind
cause it's been taking all my time
and i don't wanna fall behind
well is that really such a crime?

write another letter like you're gonna get her
to fall all over you again
you're writing with your drunk slur, thinking bout what you were
and all the luck that you had then

but your luck ran out right with your lies
she saw right on past your eyes
she'd always try to justify
why you always made her cry

(chorus)
and i don't wanna waste my mind
cause it's been taking all my time
and i don't wanna fall behind
well is that really such a crime?


tell me are you okay, said you'll go your own way
but i don't believe that somehow
just wanna run away, can't wait another day
well, where's your soul at now?

cause you never made no sense to me
don't know who you wanna be
say something just so i'll agree
lock it up, throw away the key

(chorus)
and i don't wanna waste my mind
cause it's been taking all my time
and i don't wanna fall behind
well is that really such a crime?
