Wasting Away
In the back rooms again
Always running to the bathroom, I'm scared
It's like I never know what hits me
As if it doesn't always come and get me again
I can't be everything you want me to be
There's no way to stop it from taking over me
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
While I slip through your fingers
Won't you hold onto the thought of me that lingers?
Time, it creeps on me, I'm never alone
The hold it has on me is all that l've known
I could be everything you want me to be
You can't say I'm not trying
When there is nothing left in me
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
If it's true, l'Il let it be
But I just need some time
It's setting in, the ground escapes
And I just have to lie
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
Always running to the bathroom, I'm scared
It's like I never know what hits me
As if it doesn't always come and get me again
I can't be everything you want me to be
There's no way to stop it from taking over me
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
While I slip through your fingers
Won't you hold onto the thought of me that lingers?
Time, it creeps on me, I'm never alone
The hold it has on me is all that l've known
I could be everything you want me to be
You can't say I'm not trying
When there is nothing left in me
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
If it's true, l'Il let it be
But I just need some time
It's setting in, the ground escapes
And I just have to lie
Wasting away my borrowed time
I got nothing, nothing to show for it
I'm so fragile to the touch
Break me open and leave me to rot away
You've got everything you want
I can't even open my eyes
I'm just clouds of falling dust
Pick me up and put me right back together
