Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I've been lying awake all night just thinking of you
But a bottle of whiskey lies heavy obstructing my view
I've got a bottle of pills to give me my thrills
And I know I'm leading a life that kills
[Verse 2]
Wasted, I've wasted my time
Wasted, I'm shooting a line
Wasted, I'm stuck in a hole
Wasted, I'm losing control
[Verse 3]
And I've been meaning to call, I've been wanting to phone
You see I don't like the thought of leaving you here alone
Well I've seen things down here that are fit for a queen
I've seen things down here that should never be seen
[Verse 4]
Wasted, I've wasted my money
Wasted, wasted you honey
Wasted, I'm out of my brain
Wasted, I'm going insane
[Verse 5]
I'm running in thin air
There's nothingness everywhere
I've gotta get out, oh won't you help me?
I've gotta get out, oh won't you help me?
I've gotta get out, oh won't you help me get out?
[Verse 6]
I thought I saw you just the other day
But it couldn't be you 'cause you had nothing to say
"He's going away," they told all my friends
Well, now he's stuck in here till the misery ends
[Verse 7]
Wasted, I've wasted my time
Wasted, I'm shooting a line
Wasted, I'm out of my head
Wasted, I wish I was dead
