Spin the room around my head
Spill every word until the end
I don't like who I've been
Truth is, I never really did
Reflected all around this place
Walls of mirrors show my face
The one I watched fade away
Fall into empty days
Gotta learn to walk away
Some things never change
Keep watching the clock
Watch me as I waste away
(Watch me waste away)
Fill my mind with emptiness
Peace and quiet for a bit
I didn't want any of this
But I don't know what to fix
Will it all just go away?
Will this come around again someday?
Harbor fear of what can fade
Nothing else will stay
Gotta learn to walk away
Some things never change
Keep watching the clock
Watch me as I waste away
In my mind, there's nothing left to say
So I'll be here, I'll stay
Shed the weight
Hang my head and turn away
Some hopes carve a millstone
Burn words in the throat
Cough up pain
It never changed
Wait in vain
Some give up not to break
But still I wait
Some hopes carve a millstone
Burn words in the throat
Cough up pain
It never changed
Wait in vain
Some give up not to break
But still I wait
Gotta learn to walk away
Some things never change
Keep watching the clock
Watch me as I waste away
In my mind, there's nothing left to say
So I'll be here, I'll stay
Shed the weight
Hang my head and turn away
Spin the room around my head
Spill every word until the end
I don't want any of this
Truth is, I never did
