Lyrics:

Maybe you got tough

Flew out the door on a breeze

Maybe you just got lost

On the way back home

On the way back home to me

Maybe we're just pretending

And maybe I don't mind

So now that it's ending

I don't wanna know

Was it all a waste of time?

It's the end of the world, it's the last taste of wine

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

You were lost, I was blind, and we swore it was time

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

Waste of time

Waste of time

So I wrote one more story

I just don't know how it ends

'Bout all the boys you're seeing

The ones that you, that you call your friends

This nightmare keep repeating

We'll never get to the end

Of this fire we're feeding

The hottest love has the coldest end

From the start of it all to the end of the line

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

You were lost, I was blind, and we swore it was time

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

Waste of time

Waste of time

A waste of time

A waste of time

A waste of time

From the start of it all to the end of the line

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

You were lost, I was blind, and we swore it was time

When you were, when you were, when you were mine

Waste of time (End of the world, last taste of wine)

A waste of time (When you were, when you were, when you were mine)

A waste of time (Start of it all, end of the line)

A waste of time (When you were, when you were, when you were mine)

Waste of time (End of the world, last taste of wine)

Waste of time (When you were, when you were, when you were mine)

Start of it all, end of the line

When you were, when you were, when you were mine
