Don't Waste Time
by The Protest

Album: The Protest - EP

All my life I've been afraid to leave behind this masquerade
So I plug my ears, but the screams are deafening
That call me back to insanity
I'm so ashamed I wrap the noose around my own neck
I never go outside; I know they'll see this train wreck
But I feel that when I put down my pride
My mind is finally free and I'm connected to you

You told me you were the one
That could take it all away
(I need your love to rescue me)

(Don't waste time) I'm sick of all this running
(Don't waste time) You can carry all this weight on your back
(Don't waste time) So when the clock hands race
I need to open up and receive your grace
(Don't waste time) Cause I can't let it slip away
(Don't waste time) Cause sand falls faster each day
(Don't waste time) So when the clock hands race
I need to open up and receive your grace

In my world darkness is all that exists
This stress and self-hatred is too much to lift
When I try to carry it alone the weight snaps my back
I'm left broken and angry
I want to please you, but the things I do make me sick
How can I show your love? I feel I don't deserve it
I'm so unworthy, so undeserving and I can't take it
(I can't take this)
