about

Probably my favorite song on the album. Influenced (heavily) by The Flying Eyes, which is obvious if you've heard their first album. I think this is probably the best vocal performance I've ever done.
The lyrics are about how I wasted my High School youth by sitting around hoping things are going to happen (which is something I ironically noticed myself doing just the other day).

lyrics

There's that woman,
Coming down, walkin' all alone
i feel like I'm gonna drown
She chills me to the bone

Bridge
But I cannot moan
No I can't frown, otherwise I'll

Chorus
Waste my youth
(Lord you know I'm wastin' away)
It's the truth
(Oh mama I cannot be with you today I'm)
Wastin' my youth
(If I could babe you know I would)
it's the truth
(Oh mama you gotta help me please)

i wanna spend time with ya
So I won't waste any time
We gotta go far awaya
So we don't waste a dime

Bridge

Chorus
I'll waste my youth
(Oh, lord ya know I'm wastin' away)
It's the truth
(Mm, mama I can't be with you today I'm,)
Wasting my youth
(Oh baby, if I could I would)
Oh baby, it's the truth
(mama you gotta help me please)

(solo)

Bridge

Chorus
Waste my youth
(Oh lordy mama you know I'm wastin' away)
It's the truth
(Oh, baby I can't be with you today I'm,)
Wastin' my Youth
(Oh baby you know if I could I would)
It's the truth
(Oh mama you gotta help me please)
