With a swerve, my eyes avert
My mouth somehow forgets to work 
So I stare until you shout 
Wondering why you can't figure me out 
With a change, I call the names 
I'm spitting out words, hoping it works 
Still I stare while they all shout 
Why can't I even figure it out? 

The time I'm wasting 
Can't say where I've been 
Catching my same old way 
Slowly spin beneath the day 
Your time I'm wasting 
Can't say where we've been 
Cause it seems to me that 
Nothing's what it's ever meant to be 

With my fate, my thoughts erase 
My head's a blur, the picture fades 
My eyes, they keep on shutting down 
I can't see why you won't figure me out 

The time I'm wasting 
Can't say where I've been 
Catching my same old way 
Slowly spin beneath the day 
Your time I'm wasting 
Can't say where we've been 
Cause it seems to me that 
Nothing's what it's ever meant to be 

Why can't you figure me out?

With a twist 
My mind has missed 
You said 
That I forget 

The time I'm wasting 
Can't say where I've been 
Catching my same old way
Slowly spin beneath the day 
Your time I'm wasting 
Can't say where we've been 
Cause it seems to me that 
Nothing's what it's ever meant to be 
Your time I'm wasting 
Can't say where we've been 
Cause it seems to me that 
No one’s ever who they’re meant to be
