Waste – Staind
Your mother came up to me
She wanted answers only she should know, only she should know
It wasn’t easy to deal
With the tears that rolled down her face
I have no answers ’cause
I didn’t even know you
But these words
They can’t replace
The life you
The life you waste
How could you paint this picture?
Was life as bad as it should seem?
That there were no more options for you
I can’t explain how I feel
I’ve been there many times before
I’ve tasted the cold steel of my life crashing down before me
But these words
They can’t replace
The life you
The life you waste
Did Daddy not love you?
Or did he love you just too much?
Did he control you?
Did he live through you at your cost?
Did he leave no questions for you to answer on your own?
Well f_ck them
And f_ck her
And f_ck him
And f_ck you
For not having the strength in your heart to pull through
I’ve had doubts, I’ve had fears
I’ve f_cked up, I’ve had plan
Doesn’t mean I should take my life with my own hands
But these words
They can’t replace
The life you
The life you waste
But these words
They now replace
The life you
The life you waste
