Waste Of Life Lyrics

[Intro]
All I can see
Breeds misery
Even these dreams
Silence suffocates, I scream

[Verse 1]
Alone, above the raging sea
I feel this aching heart envelop me
I tempt till toes tip over the edge
I am begging death

[Chorus]
There's comfort in crashing, instead
Better than wishing I were dead
Watching the fire burn low
As this absent heart burns slow

[Verse 2]
I fear my eyes will give me away
And I fear that I'm not here to stay
A terrible waste of a wonderful life
Just waiting to die

[Chorus/Outro]
There's comfort in crashing, instead
Better than wishing I were dead
Watching the fire burn low
As this absent heart burns slow
I will sit, I am alone
Only you could hold me home
Knowing brevity hurts
Losing you was worst
I lost myself

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
