James Vincent McMorrow
How to Waste a Moment
[Verse 1]
I never learn
Never learned from before
So I return
I return expecting more
[Pre-Chorus]
That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
Littered with regret
See, I’ve been wasting moments
Strip them 'til they’re clean
Buried under silence
And hidden under leaves
[Chorus]
I always thought that I would be alone
A million hearts still wrapped around my throat
[Verse 2]
Two degrees
Two degrees is not that far
Still you and me
You and me, we drift apart
[Pre-Chorus]
That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
Littered with regret
See, I’ve been wasting moments
Strip them 'til they’re clean
Buried under silence
And hidden under leaves
[Chorus]
I always thought that I would be alone
A million hearts still wrapped around my throat
[Bridge]
I hear them beat
I see them all, in front of me
They don’t belong
They have no meaning
The fingers soft
And hands obscene
[Pre-Chorus]
That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
Littered with regret
See, I’ve been wasting moments
Strip them 'til they’re clean
Buried under silence
And hidden under leaves
[Chorus]
I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
