Em                         D 
You think you control my mind 
D                         C 
Don't wanna get left behind 
C                      D        Em 
I'm dealing with fear inside 
Em                        D 
Watch me succeed this time 
D                       C 
Gotta find a place to hide 
C                         D     Em 
Don't make me say goodbye 
(wasting time) 
Pattern repeats throughout verses. 


You dunno what you mean to me 
Gotta find a place to be 
Just give me a second to breathe 
Who wants be my queen 
Who wants to see what I've seen 
Who wants to be where I've been 

Em      D C            D     Em 
Wasting Time, Wasting time 

My mind feels like a sieve 
Not a lot more to give 
Especially when there's no one with me 
I'm struggling and you know it true 
Not a lot more to do 
What's going on with you and me 

Wasting Time x4 

You think you control my mind 
Don't wanna get let behind 
I'm dealing with fear in inside (haha) 

Wasting time x3 
D 
Wasted 
                   Em 
Stop wasting my time x4
