Wasted Years - Backyard Babies

It doesn’t make no common sense

I can see right through

You’re diggin' holes so deep and wide

I fear you’re falling out

But most of you don’t realize

The enemy’s inside

Kickin' dust on higher ground

Cross my heart and hope to die

All those wasted years

I never thought I could leave this town

I never thought I would write this down

Everytime you go hiding out

Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around

I never thought I could write this down

Everytime you go disappear

Leave no trace, wasted years

Finders keepers, losers weepers

Until the bitter end

What you see is what you get

But you cannot see it yet

A shadow of your former self

A heart without a home

The king is dead, your dream is gone

Cross my heart and hope to die

All those wasted years

I never thought I could leave this town

I never thought I would write this down

Everytime you go hiding out

Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around

I never thought I could write this down

Everytime you go disappear

Leave no trace, wasted years

Everytime you go hiding out

Everytime you go hiding out

All those wasted years

I never thought I could leave this town

I never thought I would write this down

Everytime you go hiding out

Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around

I never thought I could write this down

Everytime you go disappear

Leave no trace, wasted years

Everytime you go hiding out

All those wasted years
