Waste of Time Lyrics

Feels like a bad dream, like a sad movie

That I watched a million years ago, can't believe that was me

I don't blame myself, I couldn't do better even when I tried to get free

Well life's so different now and you're a fading memory

Yeah you always had to make me feel second best

Like I wasn't quite enough for your love

Put you on a pedestal so I could beg on my knees

It's what I know because of where I came from

But since I let you go, others take your place,

Make me feel beautiful, and now I don't need fate

I don't need poetry, to read between the lines

'Cause it's so clear to me now

It's just a waste of time

I used to crave being in your shadow,

At least I was close to you

I thought if I stuck around, someday it'd make

Sense to you but now I'm

Standing tall, shining bright, no you can't dim my light

I'm so loved, I'm so wanted, and it feels so right

Yeah you always had to make me feel second best

Like I wasn't quite enough for your love

Put you on a pedestal so I could beg on my knees

It's what I know because of where I came from

But since I let you go, others take your place,

Make me feel beautiful, and now I don't need fate

I don't need poetry, to read between the lines

'Cause it's so clear to me now

It's just a waste

Yeah you always had to make me feel second best

Like I wasn't quite enough for your love

Put you on a pedestal so I could beg on my knees

It's what I know because of where I came from

But since I let you go, others take your place,

Make me feel beautiful, and now I don't need fate

I don't need poetry, to read between the lines

'Cause it's so clear to me now

It's just a waste of time
