Wasting My Time
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've already gone too far away
I still can't keep the day from ending
No more messed up reasons for me to stay
Well, this is not for real, afraid to feel
I just hit the floor, don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time
Let's make the call and take it all again, woah again
Months went by with us pretending
When did our light turn from green to red?
I took a chance and left you standing
Lost the will to do this once again
Well, this is not for real, afraid to feel
I just hit the floor, don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling, there is no reason
Let's make the call and take it all
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time again, woah again
I see you waiting
Lonesome, lonely
I see you waiting
I see you waiting
Well, this is not for real, afraid to feel
I just hit the floor, don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling, there is no reason
Let's make the call and take it all
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my
Well, this is not for real, afraid to feel
I just hit the floor, don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling, there is no reason
Let's make the call and take it all
I'm wasting my time again, woah again
In this song, the singer seems to be speaking to someone who wants to hold onto a relationship that has already ended. The singer acknowledges that they have "already gone too far away," and that no more excuses can be made to try and hold onto the relationship. There is a sense of unease in the lyrics, with the singer being "afraid to feel" and not wanting to be real with their emotions. The chorus repeats the line "I'm wasting my time" several times, driving home the point that the relationship is no longer worth holding onto.
The second verse reveals that the relationship has been going on for months, with the singer pretending that everything is still okay. However, something has changed, and the relationship has now come to a standstill, with the singer "lost the will to do this once again." The outro sees the singer acknowledging the person they are leaving behind, seeing them as "lonesome, lonely" while they themselves move on.
Overall, the song paints a picture of a relationship that has run its course, with the singer refusing to hold onto it any longer. It speaks to the idea that sometimes relationships end, and that it's better to let go than to try and force something that is no longer there.
