wasting time

If I could get back to a place where I relate to the people around me
I think I would be safe until they found me out
You know it's never too late unless you sit and wait
And watch it all waste away, don't let it all waste away

Don't, don't change your mind thinking of me
Let fate decide the way it's gonna be
'Cause when you close your eyes, what do you see?

If I could get back all the minutes I saved just to spend on you
Watching our love turn to hate and suck the air out the room
She said, "There are no mistakes, only lessons proved
Through all the choices you make and what you actually do"

Don't, don't change your mind thinking of me
Let fate decide the way it's gonna be
'Cause when you close your eyes, what do you see?

I'll be back again to try when the bottom of your eyes have finally dried
You know you only shed tears for things worth a fight
And now you're staying up at night, another bottle of wine
Smoking cigarettes inside when you fantasize about it
I doubt that you can count the words around
The phrases that you swore you would never say
Until your chariot came up in a fiery blaze

So don't take any precautions, no, we can't waste
Anymore oxygen in poor taste, spending this life all alone
For Pete's sake, baby, pick up the goddamn phone
I know you want me like I want you
You're the first thing that I think of when the sun shines through
I'm blinded by your lights and even if I tried
I could never deny your orbit in my mind

So spin me in circles 'til I go numb
Spin me in circles 'til I go
Spin me in circles 'til I go, 'til I go
