Wasted Years

Police cars on the westside

Pushers down in the east

Ain't no sleep at night when you're lined up

They say it ain't a disease

The voices callin' the streetlights

But the feeling ain't right

Ain't no sleep at all

So you find me stayin' home tonight

This is the sound of the wasteland

And we're all drownin' in quicksand

So put the cap on the gas tank 'cause I'm ready to burn

For all my friends and all my peers

I got no regrets for my wasted years

With all these things I hold so dear

I got no time for no more wasted, wasted years

A burnout caused by the river

Shine a light on the streets

When they find you face down in the hot sand

They say it ain't a disease

This is the sound of the wasteland

And you're all drownin' in quicksand

So put the cap on the gas tank 'cause I'm ready to burn

For all my friends and all my peers

I got no regrets for my wasted years

With all these things I hold so dear

I got no time for all those wasted, wasted years

For all my friends and all my peers

I got no regrets for my wasted years

With all these things I hold so dear

I got no regrets for my wasted years

Don't let your hope become your fear

I got no regrets for my wasted years

'Cause I ain't cryin' no more tears

I got no time for all those wasted, wasted years
