My Turn To Waste It

lyrics

MY TURN TO WASTE IT

and it's my turn to waste it

passion deep inside my soul
i feel alive but i don't know why
i know what it takes to break away
fashioning some kind of throne in my mind
got a line on the highs and lows
but i don't want to stay away

down on my luck, what the fuck
gonna take all the time
that i need to rewind
toes in the dirt like a duck
in the back of the blind

and it's my turn to waste it

barricades can fade away
if you want, you can sing to yourself
come on, it's your break
know what to say
tear the shades and stare me down
got a two bit tunnel
to the edge of town
only i can find my way

sing like a siren
caught in the web of goodbyes
under the ids and the eyes
piled like a snowdrift
oh, it's just a reprise
i got no need for it

cos it's my turn to waste it

carryin' the torch in the rain
on the way to the end
i got no need to pretend
sharin' every moment
gotta do this, now it is time
i'm gonna rise, yeah!

it's my turn to waste it
