I let my guard down Hoping she'd be my everything What a joyous sound Like a skylark when she sings My heart was in the right place But my brain was not intact I listen very closely Misconstruing lies for facts in love How could I be blind by false maturity Heaven only knows that I've shown my insecurities Now, my friends think I'm a fool to want you back I'd probably agree but the sex keeps me attached so Why do we try? Why keep a broken love alive Hoping for ever happily In fantasies, seeing is believing what you wanna see And we dare to call it love In reality, if I could stop the feeling washin' over me I would finally have enough of your Wasted love, wasted love Wasted love, wasted love Never skipped a beat Hoping she'd make me feel complete History repeats like a tide washed out to see Attracted when I met you, flustered me I must confess But your disguise it crumbled, it revealed all of your mess and I'm not your dad, your doctor or your little tool Hoping I would fix all the hurt you hold inside of you Now I've learned to take care of what is best for me Sadly I'm afraid that your just another ex to me Why do we try? Why keep a broken love alive Hoping for ever happily? In fantasies, seeing is believing what you wanna see And we dare to call it love In reality, if I could stop the feeling washin' over me I would finally have enough of your Wasted love, wasted love Wasted love, wasted love
