Well I don't want to see you waiting I've already gone too far away I still can't keep the day from ending No more messed up reasons for me to stay Well this is not for real Afraid to feel I just hit the floor Don't ask for more I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my time You can't stop the feeling And there's no reason Let's make the call And take it all again Woah again Months went by with us pretending When did our light turn from green to red I took a chance and left you standing Lost the will to do this once again Well this is not for real Afraid to feel I just hit the floor Don't ask for more I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my time You can't stop the feeling And there's no reason Let's make the call And take it all I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my time again Woah again See you waiting Lonesome, lonely See you waiting I see you waiting Well this is not for real Afraid to feel I just hit the floor Don't ask for more I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my time You can't stop the feeling And there's no reason Let's make the call And take it all I'm wasting my time I'm wasting...
