Name: Don't Waste Time
Duration: P00H03M32S
Description: I knew once I wrote the lyrics, I craved that this song would have momentum. It is written with the intention that I can run across stage when we are back to live music. It’s about procrastination, and how life is short, so I want to grab it by the horns even if sometimes I slip and get tired of the hustle. It’s about never giving up

about

I knew once I wrote the lyrics, I craved that this song would have momentum. It is written with the intention that I can run across stage when we are back to live music. It’s about procrastination, and how life is short, so I want to grab it by the horns even if sometimes I slip and get tired of the hustle. It’s about never giving up

lyrics

Born and we’re blown
Deep in the storm
Its turning, I’m burning out

Caught in my head
Things I have said
Bring in the drought

You’ve got 6 dreams written on your arm
But a bed frame sitting at the start
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
And you got so much more left to give
But if your heart aint really in it
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time

Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
Greater green light speeding in your eyes
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
Bat in my back speeding in the light

So much to be
Finding my feet
I’m learning, I’m breaking out

Caught in my head
Thoughts I have left
Giving me ground

You’ve got 6 dreams written on your arm
But a bed frame sitting at the start
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
And you got so much more left to give
But if your heart aint really in it
Don’t waste time x5
Greater green light speeding in your eyes
Don’t Waste Time x3

Slow hands to do nothing
Time spent dreaming
Your thoughts my steps oo
x2

You’ve got 6 dreams written on your arm
But a bed frame sitting at the start
Don’t waste time
Don’t waste time
And you got so much more left to give
But it your heart aint really in it
Don’t waste time x5
Greater green light speeding in your eyes
Don’t waste Time x3
Bat in my back speeding in the light
