Gretchen - Waste lyrics

(verse 1)

In my effort to be real

You have often had to peel

Away the solid layering

of bitterness and spite

Then I'm left with nothing more

Than the child I was before

Unpretentous wandering to the truth

(chorus)

So come and take away the fear that binds me

Let me leave this world behind me

I don't want to fake

every moment I'm awake

So come and take away the fear that binds me

Let me leave this world behind me

I don't want to make

every moment I'm awake

a waste, a waste...

(verse 2)

Now it's easy to percieve

Cause it's hard enough to breathe

and never taste the innocence--the essence of your love

Every day the feeling grows

Everything that's in me knows

That you're unmistakedly

arrayed with the truth

(bridge)

It's growing, It's blowing,

I see it, I feel it

a Siren, a Torment,

Another time for us to say

Another way, another song to sing

another day, another voice for me

to say, to you
