Wasted Time

All that’s left to do
Is sit down on my own
No strength left for you
It’s me now, all alone

I just don’t have the will
To get up and try to fight
Time is all that’s left to kill
Don’t tell me it’ll be alright

Because I’ve come to a dead end
There’s nothing left for me
Too many mistakes to mend
So many you just don’t see

I just want to lie down
To sleep this life away
This life in which I drown
I’ve got nothing left to pay

A spare part in this system
I don’t have a use anymore
This life I do condemn
What do I have to live for?

But I’m just too tried to care
My time has now come
No sense of what’s fair
No longer can I run

All that’s left to do
Is sit down on my own
No strength left for you
It’s me now. All alone…
