Wasted Words

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tim Lambesis] There are days when sorrow seems never-ending Like the countless roads upon which I've driven The price of attachment in pursuit of dreams That I so often can't seem to remember Yet there are days when beauty cannot be contained It even crawls out from under ordinary things [Pre-Chorus: Tim Lambesis, Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert] A foreigner, no place to go Holding on, making the most Of what little time I have [Chorus: Tim Lambesis, Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] All the wasted words I said In all the cities that I left The last act of our precious play Must not close with regret [Post-Chorus: Tim Lambesis] I will not leave wishing I had done things differently [Verse 2: Tim Lambesis] The moments I treasure are seldom The ones that I planned for And if I knew where pain hid I might still let it go So, when the audience has Run toward the latest drift It will be my time to face The life that I have set [Pre-Chorus: Tim Lambesis, Tim Lambesis & Josh Gilbert] A foreigner in my own home Holding on, no place to go [Chorus: Tim Lambesis, Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] All the wasted words I said In all the cities that I left The last act of our precious play Must not close with regret, regret All the wasted words [Bridge: Tim Lambesis] Some days, the line between Peace and pain Seems more like a blur But I know with certainty I can't leave wishing I cannot leave I can't leave wishing I'd done things differently [Chorus: Tim Lambesis, Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis] All the wasted words I said In all the cities that I left The last act of our precious play Must not close with regret, regret All the wasted, wasted words
