Wasted Youth
Breaking Ties: Unveiling the Depths of Wasted Youth
Lyrics
I'm not afraid of lies I'm more afraid of truth
I fear the truth more than lies.
I'm breaking dated ties with all my wasted youth
I'm ending connections with my misspent youth.
I'm all alone in a crowded room
Despite being in a crowded space, I feel isolated.
Cause I'm the only one that ain't impressed by you
I'm unimpressed by others in the room.
When you're dancing round with cigarette hanging out of your mouth
Observing someone smoking makes it tempting for me too.
But you make it look so good now I want one too
Despite the potential harm, the act seems appealing.
You got me hanging with old friends that I barely knew
I'm spending time with acquaintances just to impress you.
As if I got something to prove to you
Feeling the need to prove myself to you.
Snowy days in LA I'm not talking bout the weather
Referencing unusual weather in LA, implying emotional turbulence.
Sober up by Monday I can say I'm doing better
Committing to sobriety by Monday as a sign of improvement.
Something bout a bottle and a line and I forget her
Alcohol and drugs help in forgetting a past romantic involvement.
Said I cross her mind but I can swear I never met her
Denying a past encounter despite the claim that the person thinks about it.
Ah ooh
Non-verbal expression, possibly indicating a sigh or contemplation.
Stuck in places that I've never been too
Feeling trapped in unfamiliar situations.
Ooh
Reiterating a sense of being uninterested in certain experiences.
Another wasted night I'm never into
Expressing dissatisfaction with another night wasted.
I'm not afraid of lies I'm more afraid of truth
Repeating the fear of truth over lies.
I'm breaking dated ties with all my wasted youth
Continuing to break ties with misspent youth.
I'm all alone in a crowded room
Emphasizing loneliness despite being in a crowd.
Cause I'm the only one that ain't impressed by you
Remaining unimpressed by others seeking validation.
When you're dancing round with cigarette hanging out of your mouth
Describing the allure of someone smoking with a cigarette in their mouth.
But you make it look so good now I want one too
Expressing the desire to mimic the appealing behavior.
You got me hanging with old friends that I barely knew
Associating with old acquaintances to impress.
As if I got something to prove to you
Feeling the pressure to prove oneself in certain situations.
