Steve Aoki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say love is messed up
You say that it don't work
You don't wanna try, no, no
(You don't wanna try, no, no)
And baby, I'm no stranger
To heartbreak and the pain, of
Always being let go (always being let go)
And I know there's no making this right, this right
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (your mind)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight (oh, yeah)
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby, why not waste it on me?
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)

So we don't gotta go there
Past lovers and warfare
It's just you and me now (yeah, yeah)
I don't know your secrets
But I'll pick up the pieces
Pull you close to me now (yeah, yeah)

And I know there's no making this right, this right (yeah)
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (oh)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight (oh, yeah)
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby, why not waste it on me?
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me) tell me why not
Yay, waste it on me

Don't you think there must be a reason?
Yeah, like we had our names
Don't you think we got another season?
That come after spring
I wanna be your summer
I wanna be your wave
Treat me like a comma
And I'll take you to a new phrase
Yeah, come just eat me and throw me away
If I'm not your taste, babe, waste
Waste it on me

And I know there's no making this right, this right (yeah)
And I know there's no changing your mind, your mind (oh)
But we both found each other tonight, tonight (oh, yeah)
So if love is nothing more
Than just a waste of your time

Waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Baby, why not waste it on me?
Waste it on me
(Waste it on me)
Tell me why not waste it on me




Waste it on me
(Waste it on me) tell me why not

Overall Meaning

In Steve Aoki's song "Waste It On Me," the lyrics address the concept of love being messy and often leaving individuals hurt and fearful. The singer states that they are no stranger to heartbreak and the pain of being let go. However, despite the difficulties that come with love, both the singer and their partner have found each other in the present time. They acknowledge that they cannot change the past or each other's minds on the matter, but they propose that if love is going to be just a waste of time, why not waste it on each other?


The second verse emphasizes that they do not have to look to their past lovers and potential conflicts but rather embrace their current situation. Even though the singer may not know all of their partner's secrets, they vow to be present and close to them now. The chorus repeats the sentiment that their love may not succeed, but rather than wasting it elsewhere, they should waste it on each other. The bridge of the song speaks to the idea that there may be a reason that they have each other in their lives and urges the partner to treat them like a valuable part of their life rather than just an afterthought.


Overall, the song's lyrics encourage the listener to embrace the present moment and the love that they have, even if it is temporary or doomed to fail.
