John B. Jones - Wasting Time on Stupid Dreams Lyrics

Now come around, my brothers, let's read the devil's will
What final wish was to be made of scraps of hope so shrill
And in the dirty linen, what wisdom keeps the crown
I've built a home here in the lost and found

I'm nearly in my thirties and I'm getting high all night
I work so hard and still I can't keep half my shit inside
I'm hungry and I'm dirty, I'm ruining my life
Ain't no one that can fix me up alright

Wasting time on these stupid dreams
Count the thoughts till sweet release
Yeah, when she leaves me full of hurt
She'll wipe my face right off the earth

Now I am lost on loving, I will never say goodbye
I've long fallen in love with the sadness in her eyes
So smile and while you kill, think just how to take your time
Cause you're never gonna stop me getting high

Well all day I hear sadness, so I wear it on my sleeve
It's always been so present that I've dosed me in my dreams
So I'm giving up now, I'll let it be, I'm so lonely I could die
Ain't no one that can fix me up alright

Wasting time on these stupid dreams
Count the thoughts till sweet release
Yeah, when she leaves me full of hurt
She'll wipe my face right off the earth

Now when I pay the piper, I will carve myself in three
For I never felt the touch of God or Satan's claws you see
So everybody listen up, I think I'm finally coming down
I'm lonely and I need someone right now

Wasting time on these stupid dreams
Count the thoughts till sweet release
Yeah, when she leaves me full of hurt
She'll wipe my face right off the earth
