It doesn't make no common sense
I can see right thru
You're diggin' holes
So deep and wide
I fear you fallin' 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
Every time you go hiding out
Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around
I never thought I could write this down
Every time you go disappear
Leave no trace
Wasted years

Finders keepers, losers weepers
Untill 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
Every time you go hiding out
Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around
I never thought I could write this down
Every time you go disappear
Leave no trace
Wasted years

Every time you go hiding out
Every time you go hiding out
All those wasted years

I never thought I could leave this town
I never thought I would write this down
Every time you go hiding out
Wasted years of finding out

I never thought I would wait around
I never thought I could write this down
Every time you go disappear
Leave no trace
Wasted years

Every time you go hiding out
All those wasted years
