Wasting Time
Nemjuci Lyrics

In the first two lines of the song, the singer expresses a deep and enduring love for someone, emphasizing its eternal nature with the phrase "I love you so, much forever." However, despite the intensity of this love, the relationship seems to be superficial, as they "only speak about the weather." This mundane conversation about the weather suggests a lack of depth and intimacy in their interactions.

The lines "Don't give a damn, till I'm naked in the snowstorm" and "Don't give a damn, till I'm dressed warm and it glows" juxtapose contrasting situations to highlight the disconnect in the relationship. The singer realizes that their love may not be reciprocated or valued until they are in extreme conditions – either naked in a snowstorm or warmly dressed. This imagery symbolizes the need for dramatic circumstances to provoke a response from the other person, indicating a lack of emotional connection or understanding in the relationship.

As the song progresses, the singer conveys a sense of loneliness and isolation despite being physically present on the street. The line "I'm walking down the street, oh baby I'm alone" underscores a feeling of emotional detachment and disconnection even when in the presence of the person they love. The mention of being bored with only talking to the other person further emphasizes the lack of meaningful communication and engagement in the relationship.

The chorus of the song, with the repetition of "Wasting time together, talking to myself that might be better" and "Talking to the wall should cause you pleasure," reflects the singer's realization that the relationship may be futile and unfulfilling. The act of wasting time together and resorting to talking to oneself or the wall implies a sense of resignation and acceptance of the stagnant nature of the connection. The lyrics suggest a profound sense of disillusionment and dissatisfaction with the lack of genuine interaction and emotional depth in the relationship.
