Get Wasted Time
The O Lyrics

It feels like just yesterday
Despite the time that has passed, the memory of our past still feels fresh.

We were living out better days
Previously, we led happier, more carefree lifestyles.

Up late, chasing highs
We used to stay up all night, seeking the thrill of the moment.

But now we're running from time
Currently, we are trying to avoid the inevitable passing of time.

Times time with why you're caught in obligation
The burden of multiple responsibilities has led to stress and monotony.

No rhythm or moderation
We lack consistency and balance in our daily routines.

The sympathy's bittersweet
Compassion from others is appreciated, but it also serves as a reminder of our struggles and shortcomings.

A feeling you chase is all evasive
The pursuit of happiness is fleeting and difficult to attain.

I just got to let it go
It is necessary to move on from negative emotions and experiences.

Guess I gotta
It seems like the only viable option.

Just gotta gotta
We must take action and make changes to improve our situation.

Now just let it
It is time to release our past and focus on the present and future.

Go, just go
We need to move forward with our lives and not dwell on the past.

You were drinking 'til there's
The actions of others have affected our mental state.

Black on my conscience
We feel guilty and responsible for the actions of others.

It's a rearview mirror to
A reminder of the past that haunts us.

All my problems
Our personal issues continue to affect us in the present.

And you make up much nonsense
Those around us frequently engage in trivial and meaningless activities.

To break up the constant
To distract from monotony and routine.

Honestly, I find it hard to be honest
The truth can be difficult to express or come to terms with.

Of who I gotta be, I gotta be
We are struggling to find our true identity and purpose.

The echoes of monotony
The repetitive nature of our lives is overwhelming and oppressive.

Anxiety's on to me
Anxiety and stress constantly affect our mental state.

Playing strings of my irony
Our ironic perception of events and situations adds to our mental burden.

Awoke inside an Odyssey
We feel lost and adrift on a difficult journey with no clear destination.

Where the Sirens sing
The alluring call of distractions and fleeting pleasures tempts us off course.

I am sipping and sinning and singing
We indulge in substances and activities that may harm our physical or mental well-being.

A cynical form of wasted honesty
Our honesty or self-reflection may come across as negative or pessimistic.

We've been wasted wasting time in the basement
We have spent too much time on trivial or purposeless activities in secluded or uninspired environments.

Taking one thing at a time, not forsaking
We are trying to focus on individual tasks and not give up or lose sight of our goals.

The things of life, faking meaning not looking for signs
We may engage in activities or pursue lifestyles that don't bring us genuine fulfillment, rather than seeking out the true purpose and meaning of our lives.

Sometimes
Occasionally or infrequently.

Thoughts start takin' over
Our minds become overwhelmed with negative thoughts and emotions.

Am I living to the minimum?
Are we settling for a mediocre or unfulfilling life?

My whole life I've done just what I was told
We may have followed the expectations or guidance of others, rather than forging our own paths or discovering our true passions.

Please, please meet me in the middle
We are seeking compromise or understanding from others.

Lookin' over shoulder
We are always anxious or wary of potential danger or negative influences behind us.

Am I following curriculum?
Are we blindly following a prescribed set of rules or expectations rather than forging our own individual paths?

One time can I just let it go, go?
We crave the ability to just let go of our responsibilities and worries, even if just for a moment.

No
Unfortunately, that is not possible.

Just wasting my own time
We are aware that we are not achieving our full potential or fully utilizing our time and resources.

As if this night was forever
We are living in the moment and savoring its impermanence and fleeting nature.

Forever and you'd never forget
We are trying to cling to memories and moments in hopes of preserving them indefinitely.

It's just a dream you won't remember
We are aware that many experiences and memories will be lost or forgotten over time.

And I don't want to let it go
We are emotionally invested and reluctant to move on from a person or experience.

Anyway, forever or never
Regardless of whether something lasts a lifetime or is short-lived, it still holds significance or meaning to us.

It's just whatever to me
We are ambivalent or indifferent to certain experiences or people, but they still leave a mark on us.

To whomever will see the mirror is nearest to me
Others will see the reflection of who we truly are, and it may not always align with who we want to be perceived as.

Cuz I can throw the past in a bag but
It is possible to move on from negative experiences and memories, but they will still affect us in some way.

It still feels like just yesterday
Despite attempts to move on, the memories and emotions of the past are still fresh in our minds.

I gotta just let it
We need to release our past and embrace the present and future.

Go, just go
We need to move forward and not be held back by our past or negative emotions.

Now just let it
It is time to let go of what has been holding us back.
