Wasting my Time
Nothing Done Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

wasting my time
you' re wasting my time
you walked too far and now
you reached the end of the line

wanna know the reason
I'm not talking to you?
don't you think that I've got
something better to do?

bumming me out
you' re bumming me out




you think you do but you
don't know what I'm all about

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Nothing Done's song "Wasting my Time" are about an individual who is frustrated with someone who they feel is wasting their time. They express this frustration by repeating the phrase "you're wasting my time" and suggesting that the other person has reached the end of the line. The singer goes on to explain that they are not engaging in conversation with this person because they have better things to do.


The lyrics suggest that the person being addressed is "bumming" the singer out, and that they don't truly know what the singer is all about. It's possible that the singer feels that the other person is being annoying or trying to bring them down, but it's also possible that there's a deeper meaning to the frustration being expressed. Perhaps the singer is feeling overwhelmed with the demands of daily life and doesn't have the time or energy to engage with this person.


Overall, the lyrics to "Wasting my Time" express a common feeling of frustration with someone who doesn't understand or respect one's time and priorities. The repetition of the phrase "you're wasting my time" emphasizes the seriousness of the situation, and the reference to reaching the end of the line suggests that the relationship between the two individuals has come to a breaking point.

I love the lyrics. I've just now started back being able to listen to music at all after almost a year. My fiance played lead guitar and was so exceptionally talented, so everytime I would hear a guitar riff, I would cry. I lost him last September, and it has been a rough year. But I'm happy that this song is one of the first I listened to all the way through in a long time. I love it!!

Totally get it! Lost my love April 23rd and he was in a band and I had the hardest time getting back to being able to listen to music. It still makes me cry sometimes

Dana Revels

Same! We broke up last week. I’m broken. He plays guitar in a band. I feel like I lost my band family. He was the greatest love of my life. 😢

This song totally is what I'm going through right now. I play it over and over everyday so that I don't lose the battle of going back to someone who never loved me to begin with. I deserve a lot better than him for sure. Thank u Dylan for this song and for helping me win my battle
