Lyrics
I’m a kid again, my castle made of sand
This kingdom that I founded
Now the walls are caving in
How I hate to start again
But it feels like we’re surrounded
Reality’s too fast
Where’s the magic in that
Where’s the imagination
I wish that somehow
I could slow it all down
But there’s no consolation
Grow up, they keep telling me to change
It’s no fun to play this losing game
Don’t waste, don’t waste my time
I’m so sick of drawing imaginary lines
Say what you want to say
They’re not listening anyway
But don’t waste, don’t waste
Don’t waste my time
They won’t let you in the room
But they wanna tell you what to do
How to fit the mold
It’s some desperation, living with no explanation
And suddenly you’re too old
Grow up, they keep telling me to change
It’s no fun to play this losing game
Don’t waste, don’t waste my time
I’m so sick of drawing imaginary lines
Say what you want to say
They’re not listening anyway
But don’t waste, don’t waste
Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste, don’t waste
I play the game because I want them to like me
Doesn’t matter if I like myself
Counting numbers got me over thinking
Should be asking more than will it sell
I play the game because I want them to like me
Doesn’t matter if I like myself
Counting numbers got me over thinking
I should be asking more than will it sell
Don’t waste, don’t waste my time
I’m so sick of drawing imaginary lines
Say what you want to say
They’re not listening anyway
But don’t waste, don’t waste
Don’t waste my time
