Friends are telling me I lost my mind
When I hooked up with you
Maybe that's true
They say that I'll wake up one day
Asking what did I do?
Maybe that's true too

When I'm with you every thing's alright
All I know is how I feel
When you're with me

Waste my time
Waste my time
Not so sure that I'll be yours
And baby you could be mine
It's all about hanging out
'Cause you know how to waste my time

Nothing like an empty day
With nowhere to be
You're right there with me
Laughing as the world goes by
How we let it bay
Moving way to fast

'Cause when I'm with you
I don't really care
What they all want me to be
I just want you beside me

Waste my time
Waste my time
Not so sure that I'll be yours
And baby you could be mine
It's all about hanging out
'Cause you know how to waste my time

Call me Shay on the M-I-C
When you listening to me
You be listening to beat bumping
To the rhythm
That we give 'em
Where we hit 'em
With the beats on the streets
Don't forget the way we living, yo
(Waste my time) cute girl on the other side of the wall
(Waste my time) I like the way you move your body and if you fall
(Not so sure that I'll be yours) I'll be the one that's gonna catch before you hit the ground
(Baby you could be mine) I'm feeling your sound

It's all about (yeah, girl it's all about)
Hanging out (you know we hanging out)
'Cause you know how to waste my time

Waste my time (wasting my time)
Waste my time (yeah yeah)
Not so sure that I'll be yours
But baby you could be mine (you could be mine)
It's all about (yeah girl it's all about)
Hanging out (we hanging out)
'Cause you know how to waste my time (wasting my time)
You know how to waste my time

    the lyrics are wrong, "Not so sure that I'll be yours"-on ALL of them. even the last one. and "nothing like an empty" and its not "and we let it pass" its another word, it sounds like bend but I'm not sure.

    good song though.

    This chick has absolutely nothing to do with the typical music I prefer. In fact, she is the the pinnacle of everything I kick people's asses for, and yet....and yet I love her. I want to hump her incessantly. This song rules.

    Haven't you ever had one of those relationships that didn't consist of anything but keeping eachother company? And your friends are like "All you ever do is just lie around with him!!" and you're like, "I'm so fucking in love it's frightening even to me."

    Yea, well, I have.

    Shay says, "I'm feeling your sound", not "I'm seeing this out."

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
