lyrics

Everyone's on to something new these days.
They all got grown-up jobs and grown-up bills to pay,
or found love worth holding in some novel seeming way.
I am holding fast to an old armchair, my chances rolling past
and I don't dare get up to greet them.
I've got cold feet and a cold heart and I'm melting
out here in the sunshine. I am some sun-god's weary concubine.
Will I miss being stuck here, crushed by my own comfort like an inmate, afraid of the outside?
I guess it's just one of those things we'll just have to wait and see.
I know that I'll miss most of all those fleeting good times when we were so blissful we didn't ask why.

And your voice coiled with mine as we bellowed through the night. Will you forgive me in time?
I guess it's just one of those things that we'll just have to wait and see.
But you were the jealous type,
couldn't figure it out in time.
It was buried so deep inside.
But you led a privileged life.
(But then again so did I.)
You could never make up your mind.
(It's hard if you don't try.)
It's not what you'd call a crime
(Do you feel like you should die?)
I'm starting to realize
the point of your queer disguise,
(the way you made dreams die,)
the reason you never tried.
(You were a waste of time)
I guess it's just one of those things that you'll just have to wait and see.
I guess it's just one of those things that we'll just have to wait and see.
But you were a waste of time
(Never figured it out in time)
I barely got out alive
(you never really tried)
I don't know what's wrong or right
(Is this what you call a life?)
But you were a waste of time
(I'm starting to realize)
I barely got out alive
(The way you made dreams die)
I don't know what's wrong or right
(You were a waste of time.)
Success is the best revenge.
Failure is your best friend.
(You were a waste of time.)
