Time Mispent Lyrics

When you wake up in the morning and wash the bloodstains from your eyes

Do you immediately start looking for someone to criticize

Before you let the sun in before you raise the blinds

Are you already putting people down and messing with their minds

Did you ever have a lover who could make you feel alive

Or are you a sports car in a salvage yard that's lost its will to drive

Are you making fun of saints and angels at the altar of the sun

I swear you spend so much time on hatred

It's a wonder

That you ever get anything done

When you wander through the nightmare that you call your poison life

And you dwell upon the struggle the injustice and the strife

When ten thousand little problems sting your flesh and start to tear

Into your bitter callused heart saying something isn't fair

Did you ever have a lover who forced you to forget

The fear and negativity that makes you so upset

Are you making fun of saints and angels at the altar of the sun

I swear you spend so much time on hatred

It's a wonder

That you ever get anything done

When you see a naked stranger on the street or in your room

Do you wonder why he's got no clothes do you blame it on the doom

Is the half-full glass half empty does the rainbow scream it rained

Is there sunshine moving in have you lost the things you'd gained?

Did you ever have a lover who washed the tears away

Or has everyone you've ever loved

Made you pay and pay and pay

Are you making fun of saints and angels at the altar of the sun

I swear you spend so much time on hatred

It's a wonder

That you ever get anything done
