and if i cried and if i said i'm sorry
and if i told the truth a million times
would you believe would you believe i'm sorry
or would i start to fade and waste away

i never thought that it would come to this
i never thought you'd waste away
now i'll drive away my pain and catch the next flight for L.A.
slowly close my eyes and start to waste away

you always said the hardest thing you knew
of getting older was you lose your friends
and now i know and now i know it's true
as now i start to fade and waste away

i never thought that it would come to this
i never thought you'd waste away
and now i'll wrestle with my brain and wash away with acid rain
lay down with my ghosts and start to waste away

and i fell out my body arched with pain and anger
i feel like i've been asleep for days
now i'll drive away my pain and catch the next flight for L.A.
slowly close my eyes and start to waste away
now i'll wrestle with my brain and wash away with acid rain
lay down with my ghosts and start to waste away
