Wasted

The Brian Jonestown Massacre

When I look in deep inside myself
And I search in vain
I've tried to be like someone else
But remain the same, wasted life

I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

When I'm sitting deep inside myself
And it causes pain
Think about the endless times I've tried
But I've failed in vain, I laugh sometimes

Between the lines, and I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
I want to know

I want to know
I want to know
