I've Wasted So Much Time
Enjoy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Step a little closer
Pass up the potion
Got a little open
Feel a little broken
Step a little closer
Step a little closer
Step a little closer
It'll feel alright

Feels Like It's over
Gets a little better
Tastes like leather
You're lighter than a feather
Step a little closer
Step a little closer
Step a little closer

It'll feel alright
Step a little closer

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Enjoy's song "I've Wasted So Much Time" create a picture of someone who is lost and broken, seeking solace in something that they know is not good for them. The repeated phrase "Step a little closer" can be interpreted as a call to action, encouraging the person to indulge in their vices or addictions. Pass up the potion, feel a little broken, and get a little open all imply that the person is looking for an escape, a release from their pain. It's as if they know that what they're doing is wrong, but they can't help themselves.

As the song progresses, the tone shifts slightly. "Feels Like It's Over" suggests that the person is at their breaking point, but then "Gets a Little Better" comes in as a faint glimmer of hope. "Tastes Like Leather" and "You're lighter Than A Feather" both convey a sense of physical sensation, which could indicate that the person is starting to feel the effects of their actions - whether that's a feeling of numbness or a literal high.

Ultimately, the repetition of "Step a little closer" throughout the song reflects the cyclical nature of addiction. The person is trapped in a cycle of destructive behavior, unable to break free. The song ends on the line "Step a little closer", leaving the listener with the sense that the person will continue to repeat the same patterns, and the cycle will continue.
