Wasted Time? Lyrics

The dream is over - No one is to take the blame
We believed in roses but only thorns remained

And I look into the rear view mirror
We create a destroy
Put our blood into a street with a dead end
Walk up that stairway to jump off into the black

Here we go
We go all the gay - Do we need the pain
Waking up in a black tomorrow
I've been there before - Was it all wasted again
We go all the way - Do we need the pain
Waking up in a black tomorrow
I've been there before - Was it all just wasted time

Maybe I am different maybe I'm a fool
And I wonder if it's worth it
Trying to find another you

And I look into that rear view mirror
Just to see how fucked I look
While I drive along that street with a dead end
Like a moth to a flame it's gonna suck me into pain

Here we go
We go all the gay - Do we need the pain
Waking up in a black tomorrow
I've been there before - Was it all wasted again
We go all the way - Do we need the pain
Waking up in a black tomorrow
I've been there before - Was it all just wasted time

What are we heading for - Why do I dare again
Once bitten twice shy and still we never learn

So here I'm lying lying - A leisure poet in pain
Involuntary loner I know life is just a game
Where novody gets out alive - A sedative shot for me
No happy man gets out alive - Neither of us you will see

Here's my thoughts.

I see this as a broken up relationship he's remembering, hurting him to do so questions if it was all "wasted time".

He can't help but remember even if it does hurt him, or maybe he keeps trying with this person which he knows will hurt in the end.

--

"The dream is over, no one's to take the blame We believed in roses, but only thorns remained"

  • There was something, they believed in something beautiful the relationship in this case being the metaphor for the rose where only thorns remain.. nasty.. hurtful.

"When I look into the rear view mirror We create and we destroy"

  • Looking into the past, to see the relationship they created, and destroyed.

"Put our blood into a street with a dead end Walk up that stairway to jump off into the black"

  • They put themselves into building the relationship, time and effort to building something that seeming lead nowhere.

Here we go

"We go all the way, do we need the pain? Waking up in a black tomorrow"

  • Questioning weather it's worth trying to remember the pain, or worth trying again with the person who he's singing about? Is it really worth trying again? Or remembering again?

"I've been there before, was it all wasted again? We go all the way, do we need the pain?"

  • Again reflecting on how he's either remembered before or gotten back with her before.

"Waking up in a black tomorrow I've been there before, was it all just wasted time?"

  • Waking up in a void of sadness, questions weather the act of remembering said person was all just wasted time, or if the relationship was all just wasted time.

sry i mean: does he really say we go all the gay? :O

No. It's 'Way' this person just misspelled it...

What he says is "We go all the way".

I think the song is about a perceived futility in life.

My Interpretation
Cover art for Wasted Time? lyrics by Edguy

Yo pienso que habla acerca de la zona de confort, sobre como parece que todos los días en la vida moderna son los mismos. En este caso el protagonista está cansado de ser alguien más en un sistema.
