It's over, it's over, it's over
It seems you can't hear me
When I open my mouth you never listen
You say, "Stay," but what does that mean?
Do you think I honestly want to be reminded forever?
Don't waste your time trying to fix
What I want to erase, what I need to forget
Don't waste your time on me, my friend
Friend, what does that even mean?
I don't want your hand, you'll only pull me down
So, save your breath, don't waste your song
On me (on me), on me (on me)
Don't waste your time (it's over, it's over)
It's not easy, not answering
Every time I want to talk to you
But I can't
If you only knew the hell I put myself through
Replaying memories in my head of you and I, every night
Don't waste your time trying to fix
What I want to erase, what I need to forget
Don't waste your time on me, my friend
Friend, what does that even mean?
I don't want your hand, you'll only pull me down
So, save your breath, don't waste your song
On me (on me), on me (on me)
Don't waste your time
You're callin', you're talkin'
You're tryin'
Tryin' to get in
But it's over, it's over, it's over
Friend
Don't waste your time trying to fix it
So, save your breath, don't waste your song
On me (on me), on me (on me)
(It's over) don't waste your time
You held me
You felt me
You left me
But it's over, it's over, it's over
You touched me
You had me
But it's over, it's over, it's over, my friend
Don't waste my time
