Ofenbach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La la, la, la
La, la, la, la la love
So outspoken, you don't even notice
Every word you say gets right under my skin
Out of focus but your heart is open
Always trying when I feel like giving in
Keep breaking hearts to pieces I
Know I'm the only reason I'm
Afraid you're getting over us
Wasted love, don't give up
While you're tryna save us, or am I trying not to
Get wasted love, wake me up
Oh, tell me I'm dreaming
Or say this ain't another wasted love
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, love
Wasted love
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la la love
My emotions overflowing ocean
Takes me to the point I can't control myself
If I knew how to find the words I'd tell you
I admit that sometimes I can use your help
Keep breaking hearts to pieces I
Know I'm the only reason I'm
Afraid you're getting over us
Wasted love, don't give up
While you're tryna save us, or am I trying not to
Get wasted love, wake me up
Oh, tell me I'm dreaming
Or say this ain't another wasted love
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la la love
Wasted love
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la la love
Wasted love
Wasted love
Wasted love
The lyrics of OFENBACH's “Wasted Love” are about a tumultuous relationship where the singer seems to be the one who is constantly hurting their significant other. The lyrics suggest that despite the conflicts, the couple has a deep connection that makes it difficult to let go of the relationship. The song’s repeated refrain, “wasted love,” refers to the fear of losing something that has the potential to be great if both parties can hold on and be patient.
The opening lines of the song suggest that the other person speaks their mind freely, even when it hurts the singer. The words seem to "get under their skin," yet the singer can’t bring themselves to walk away from the relationship. The verse about “breaking hearts” may suggest that the singer is aware of their own faults and how they might be causing the relationship to fall apart. The chorus states they don't want to give up because they're afraid of losing their love.
The second verse of the song adds depth to the relationship by indicating that the relationship was so strong that it made the singer feel vulnerable. The bridge of the song expresses the singer's feelings of being unable to control their emotions and explains how their significant other has helped them through difficult times. This bridge serves as a plea to their partner to stick around and be patient.
