Staind – Waste lyrics
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 fuck them
And fuck her
And fuck him
And fuck you
For not having the strength in your heart to pull through
I've had doubts, I've had fears
I've fucked 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
