Waste
GELM Lyrics

Thought you were the one
I believed that you were the perfect person for me

But you proved me wrong
You showed me that my belief was incorrect

If you did me right you won't be confused
If you treated me well, you wouldn't be uncertain

If this is real then why don't I have you?
If our connection is genuine, why aren't we together?

Hold me, baby, I wonder if it's time
I desire your embrace, questioning if the right moment has arrived

Tell me, you love me, but obviously that's a lie
You claim to love me, but it's clearly not true

Play these games, you didn't even want to try
You engage in these manipulative actions, showing no effort or willingness

"Hold up i'm sorry I love you don't leave me don't say goodbye"
"Wait, I apologize for my behavior, I love you, please don't abandon me or bid farewell"

Cause if it was true
Because if our love was genuine

Then i'd be with you
I would be in a relationship with you

But we're not together
However, we are not in a romantic partnership

I never got to have you
I never had the opportunity to be with you

We did each other wrong
We both harmed one another

With you i'm always torn
Being with you always leaves me conflicted

But now we reached the end
But now we have come to the conclusion

And I realized you
And I finally understand who you truly are

Wasted my time
You squandered my precious moments

Why'd I even try?
Why did I even put in the effort?

You said all these lies
You uttered numerous falsehoods

Done with your type
I am finished dealing with someone like you

Now i'll wait for the time
Now I will patiently wait for the right moment

For me to be fine
For me to feel content and at peace

And be better without you
And to improve myself without your presence

Fuck communication
To hell with trying to communicate

If you don't understand
If you fail to comprehend

Might as well just let this all go
It might be best to release it all and move on

I learned my lesson now too don't get me wrong
I have also learned my own lesson, don't misunderstand

We let each other go
We allowed each other to depart from our lives

Guess that's for the better
Perhaps that is a positive outcome

Now that we're apart
Now that we have separated

I just realized you
I just truly comprehend who you are

Hard to give my all
Difficult to give my complete effort

To someone who's partly mine
To someone who only partially belongs to me

Lost most of myself
I sacrificed a significant part of my own identity

Just to make you smile
Simply to bring a smile to your face

But it's finally over
But it has finally come to an end

My friends be like "girl I told ya"
My friends would say 'I warned you, girl'

Now I know
Now I am aware

Wasted my time
You wasted my precious time

Wasted my time
You squandered my valuable time

Wasted my time
You used up my time without making it worthwhile
