Wasted On Arrival Lyrics

Regrets no more!
Regrets no more!

Well, growing up never was my thing
I saw the signs, passed the time, and pretended to fit in
What the fuck is potential?
I'll do what I believe
In a society that makes me wanna puke
I let my guard down one too many times
So sick of falling back down and having to get back up again

And I don't know my name anymore these days
And I don't know who I am anymore these days

HEY! I don't know what's happening to me
HEY! I'll never know where I belong

Thanks a lot to all the books I read
Cause I graduated underskilled and overeducated
Bitching about the system while I'm working in a basement
My minimum wage lifestyle is an embarrasment
We've all got that friend in a famous band
We've all got that friend who will never understand
Why we'll never be the kids who climb the ladder up to management
We're idiots with moltov's screaming "fuck the government!"

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
