Collective Soul - Wasting Time Lyrics






Something's going wrong inside of you
Burdens bearing down and seeping through
Well, I don't want to bleed anymore for you
And I don't want to breathe any hatred too

Sitting while you world just floats around
Now you want to move 'cause it's crashing down
Well, I don't want to sing you guarantees
And I don't want to cling to our use to be's
So take your heart, take your soul
Just get yourself on out of here
Yeah, take your hurt, take your pain
Just get yourself on out of here

Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't see what you think I see
Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't want what you think I need

    I'm 54 and have been blessed with the music of CS for over 20 years. They are one most spiritual and hard hitting rock and roll bands of our time. Under rated to say the least, I'm always anticipating their next release. Keep rocking boys and God bless you and all your music and lyrics!

  32. B.... L....

    i remember singing this chorus when my fourth grade teacher would branch off topic

  41. K.... ....

    childhood memories right here.. this is my favorite song off this album

  42. R.... C....

    simply awsome

  43. w.... ....

    Back when this CD came out, I met a girl, no ordinary girl, but one I'd adore forever, she gave me this CD, I listened to it everyday....those were the days...the girl is gone, but still in my heart and mind everyday..it's good to find music again that reminds you of great times in our lives...Pretty Penny will always be a part of my life

  44. C.... B....

    2:49 :)

  45. J.... H....

    awsome music

  46. t.... ....

    boring voice

  47. z.... ....

    this is dope brings back memories!!!

  48. M.... Z....

    About the only thing I don't like about this song is
    it's not long enough. Great CS track.

  49. M.... ....

    One of Collective Soul's awesome songs . I don't know why this one never played on the radio back then. Ahh hah.. Track 3 FTW. and Collective Soul FTW! GREAT SONG!

  50. u.... ....

    @Vatch1966 I rate love to every track on this album ^.^

  51. p.... ....

    I heard they were pushed by the record company to rush this album out as essentially a bunch of demos to take advantage of the success of "shine", and as a result, they didn't have the time to produce/polish/mix the sound properly like they did the next album. Still, amazing songs like these prove that great songs > bad production.

  52. M.... R....

    very nice solo

  53. M.... B....

    the first cd i ever owned and still the best cd i ever owned!

    M.... B....

    Out of how many?

  54. D.... D....

    This song is the most underrated track off HAATLU

  55. c.... ....

    @YourAverageJo How about Burning Bridges? That one's very good too.

  56. s.... ....

    great song for ignorant people

  57. E.... ....

    yeah this is one of my favorites if not my favorite on this album... collective soul is one of the greatest bands ever!

  58. s.... ....

    What an awesome album.

  59. K.... ....

    this song should have got more air time.

  60. S.... M....

    This album has three amazing songs, Shine, Wasting time, and Breathe
