Waste of My Time

You walked out the door
Didn't even bother looking back
I was frozen, Couldn't take anymore
I fell to my knees, and began to cry
What else was I to do?
You hurt my heart
You hurt my soul
But you never cared
Now I realize...

You were a waste of my time
I should've known better
Then to let you inside
You were a waste of my time
I was at the top
You swiped me off my feet
But you didn't catch me
You let me fall
Now I just want it to stop..
Before I lose it all..

It's hard to pick up the pieces
To throw them away
And just go on with my day
Those pieces contain bittersweet memories
I can't believe you could just throw them aside
But I guess to you those memories are no longer alive..

You were a waste of my time
I should've known better
Then to let you inside
You were a waste of my time
I was at the top
You swiped me off my feet
But you didn't catch me
You let me fall
Now I just want it to stop..
Before I lose it all..

I know people wonder what happened to us
I want to say it was a matter of trust
But I don't want to talk
That's what I'll say
But the tuth is I just want it all to go away

You were a waste of my time
I should've known better
Then to let you inside
You were a waste of my time
I was at the top
You swiped me off my feet
But you didn't catch me
You let me fall
Now I just want it to stop..
Before I lose it all..

Before I lose it all..
Before I lose it all...
Before..I...Lose... It...All..
