A guy talks about how he doesn’t think he can stay in a positive relationship with a girl. All he knows is constantly moving on, so he has commitment issues and worries that getting together with the girl he likes will be “wasted,” hence the title.
[Verse 1]
Before she even falls asleep
I got one foot out the door, one foot out the door
I think she said her name but I was wasted
I don't care anymore, one foot out the door
[Pre Chorus]
Night after night, day after day
Jack and Coke, smokin' on the fire escape
Is it too soon or is it too late?
[Chorus]
Am I crazy to think that I could be in love
When it all ends up, it all ends up wasted?
I'd give you my heart but I'd just fuck it up
And we'd end up, we'd end up wasted
[Post-Chorus]
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
[Verse 2]
Trying to numb the pain away
I know how to leave but not to stay
I wonder if I will ever find someone to fill me up inside
Someone to kiss my fears away
If I believed in God I'd pray, to God I'd pray
[Chorus]
Am I crazy to think that I could be in love
When it all ends up, it all ends up wasted?
I'd give you my heart, but I'd just fuck it up
And we'd end up, we'd end up wasted
[Post-Chorus]
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
[Pre Chorus]
Night after night, day after day
Jack and Coke, smokin' on the fire escape
Is it too soon or is it too late?
[Chorus]
Am I crazy to think that I could be in love
When it all ends up, it all ends up wasted?
I'd give you my heart but I'd just fuck it up
And we'd end up, we'd end up wasted
I said we'd end up wasted, oh oh
[Outro]
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
We'd end up wasted
