How To Waste A Moment

James Vincent McMorrow


I never learn
Never learn from before
Still I return
I return expecting more

That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
Littered with regret
I’ve been wasting moments
Strip 'em till they're clean
Buried under silence
Hidden in the leaves

I always thought that I would be alone
A million hearts, still wrapped 'round my throat

Two degrees
Two degrees is not that for
Still you and me
You and me, we drift apart

That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
Littered with regret
I’ve been wasting moments
Strip 'em till they're clean
Buried under silence
Hidden in the leaves

I always thought that I would be alone
A million hearts, still wrapped 'round my throat
I hear them beat
I see them all, in front of me
Where they don't belong
The have no meaning
Just fingers soft
And hands obscene.

That’s how I waste the moment
Everybody says
Living with this violence
And littered with regret
I’ve been wasting moments
Strip 'em till they're clean
Buried under silence
Hidden under leaves

I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
I always thought that I would be alone
