Waste

Foster The People · Torches [2011]

I'll hold your hand when you are feeling mad at me

When the monsters they wont go,

The windows, they wont close,

I'll pretend to see what you see



How long, I say how long, will you re-live the things that are gone?

The devil's on your back but I know you can shake him off



And every day that you want to waste, that you want to waste, you can

And every day that you want to wake up, that you want to wake, you can

And every day that you want to change, that you want to change, yeah

I'll help you see it through because I just really want to be with you



You know its funny how freedom can make us feel contained

When the muscles in our legs aren't used to all the walking

I know if you could snap both your fingers than you'd escape with me

But in the meantime I'll just wait here and listen

to you when you speak, or scream



And every day that you want to waste, that you want to waste, you can

And every day that you want to wake up, that you want to wake, you can

And every day that you want to change, that you want to change, yeah

I'll help you see it through because I just really want to be with you



The truth cuts us

And pulls us back up

And separates the things that look the same

But you can fight it off

You can fight it off

You can



And every day that you want to waste, that you want to waste, you can

And every day that you want to wake up, that you want to wake, you can

And every day that you want to change, that you want to change, yeah

I'll help you see it through because I just really want to be with you
