A waste of time, a waste of life
One drop of water will bring the flood

I am uninspired, dragged down and tired
So feel sorry for my predicament, do you?
Feel my tendency, downward motion pulls you
Tired and dragged down, uninspired am i

A waste of time, a waste of mind
One grain of sand will tip the scales
Out of my hands

I am awake, or so i'm told - a lie
To believe, easier than finding the truth.
In dreams i see everything real is illusion
Only certainty, i'll sleep when i'm dead

A waste of time, a waste of life
One drop of water will bring the flood
Over my head

Going through the motions
We pretend it makes a difference
Though we know deep in the back of our minds
That it's wasted time
Spent proving nothing
Impressing no one
Raised since birth
By the words of the world
Why do we continue to play the game
When we know we are giving our souls away

A waste of time, a waste of life
One drop of water will bring the flood
Over my head
