Waste of Time
Wormrot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Working our ass off
But no one really cares,
Pouring down blood and sweat,
They just stand with endless stares.
No fucking clue, baffled all around
Get the fuck out
If you are annoyed
We have no clue,
Why are you stuill doing here?
Secluded in a pathetic spot,
Covering your ears,
Unwanted trash,
Why are you still doing here?
Fuckoff, what a waste of time.
The song "Waste of Time" by Wormrot is about the frustration of working incredibly hard, pouring blood and sweat into something without any recognition or appreciation. The lyrics convey the feeling of being alone in this struggle with no one seemingly understanding what the artist is going through. There is an element of disbelief and confusion as the artist tries to make sense of why others are not recognizing the hard work being put in.
The frustration is palpable in the lyrics as the artist is confronted with people who seem annoyed by what they consider "noise pollution." Despite these negative reactions, the artist continues to push forward, remaining committed to their craft. The final lines of the song are a rejection of the negativity and a call for those who don't understand and aren't supportive to leave - "fuckoff, what a waste of time."
Overall, "Waste of Time" is a raw and honest expression of the frustration that comes with putting in hard work and not receiving recognition or support. It's a song that many people can relate to and it speaks to the need for perseverance and dedication in the face of adversity.

Waste of our time
We feel that what we're doing is pointless
Working our ass off
We are putting in a lot of effort
But no one really cares,
Despite our hard work, no one seems to appreciate it
Pouring down blood and sweat,
We are working really hard and sacrificing a lot
They just stand with endless stares.
Our audience is unresponsive and indifferent
No fucking clue, baffled all around
We are confused and frustrated by the lack of reaction
Get the fuck out
If you don't like our music, leave
If you are annoyed
If our music bothers you
By so called noise pollution,
Because you consider it to be just noise rather than music
We have no clue,
We don't understand
Why are you still doing here?
Why are you bothering to stay if you don't like it?
Secluded in a pathetic spot,
We feel isolated and underappreciated
Covering your ears,
Ignoring or avoiding our music
Unwanted trash,
We feel like we are being treated as insignificant and disposable
Why are you still doing here?
Once again, why are you bothering to stay if you don't like it?
Fuck off, what a waste of time.
We feel angry and frustrated that our hard work is being dismissed as meaningless.
