Wasted Days
Wasted Days: A Melodic Reflection on Unchanging Moments
Lyrics
Keep thinking about yesterday and the day before that
Reflecting on past days, possibly filled with regret or nostalgia.
I swore I'd move on, never look back
Expressing a commitment to moving forward and not dwelling on the past.
But I'm still here never really went anywhere
Despite the intention to move on, feeling stuck and unchanged.
You're not that impressed you say, so what you think about that?
Seeking validation, but the other person is unimpressed or indifferent.
You never blew up, dreams fell flat
Reference to unfulfilled dreams and aspirations.
'Cause you're still here never really went anywhere
Continuing to be present without significant progress.
And I still feel the way
Emphasizing a persistent emotional state.
I felt yesterday
Expressing a sustained emotional experience from the past.
Guess that's why they say
Highlighting the notion that certain feelings endure.
That some things never change, never change
Acknowledging the cliche that some things remain constant.
My left brain slaves away, slaves away
Describing mental effort and dedication to routine or work.
These lazy wasted days, wasted days
Characterizing days as unproductive and idle.
Come save me
An appeal for rescue or salvation from the current state.
Whoa
Repeating the plea for help or salvation.
Whoa
-Whoa
-Whoa
-Keep thinking about better things, 'til I got it down pat
Contemplating better circumstances until mastered.
Feeling bogged down, so damn trapped
Feeling weighed down and confined in the current situation.
'Cause I'm still here never really went anywhere
Remaining in the same state without progress.
Just thinking out loud you see, so don't take it like that
Sharing thoughts without a definitive conclusion.
Never thought it all out, can't take it all back
Regret over not fully considering the consequences of actions.
'Cause you're still here never really went anywhere
Staying in a familiar situation without meaningful change.
And some things never change, never change
Reiterating the idea that certain aspects of life remain constant.
My left brain slaves away, slaves away
Describing continued mental effort and routine.
These lazy wasted days, wasted days
Emphasizing the unproductive and idle nature of days.
Come save me
A plea for rescue or relief from the current state.
I never wanted to be
Expressing a lack of desire for special attention or leaving the current state.
Anything special, never wanted to leave
-Now I'm sitting, wondering please
Sitting and contemplating, seeking a change or rescue.
Come save me
A renewed plea for salvation.
Yeah, some things never change, never change
Reiterating the idea that some aspects of life remain unchanged.
My left brain slaves away, slaves away
Continued dedication and effort in routine tasks.
These lazy wasted days
Repeating the description of unproductive and idle days.
Come save me, yeah
A plea for rescue or relief, echoing the earlier sentiments.
Whoa
Repeating the vocalized plea for salvation or change.
Whoa
-Whoa
