Wasted Lyrics
I know your type, black lights and leather tights
You're black ice on the road on a drunken summer night, but
I got your number, your name, and your will to fight
Will you be coming over? Will you be coming? Reckon you might.
I cannot care, I cannot care for you, I cannot bear to love you any less than you need
I cannot hold you, I cannot bear to lose the bruises that you leave
If you let go of me I'd be a fool to let you, fool to let you leave
Drunk on love or anything so strong as to drive the blood to make way for more, for
More when you've forty-four left, forty for your children beg for the breath that you won't give
And your boyfriend stands to wait all for you, drink up your wasted on me
Drink up your wasted
Running that money ma, living lose, playing hard
Damned if I'm gonna lose it, damned if I'm gonna lose it
And you're runnin' low, (chink) in your glass and a knock at the door
What you looking at me for, what you looking at, me
I cannot care, I cannot care for you, I cannot bear to love you any less than you need
I cannot hold you, I cannot bear to lose them bruises that you leave
If you let go of me I'd be a fool to let you, fool, fool to let you leave
Drunk on love or anything so strong as to drive the blood to make way for more, for
More when you've forty-four left, forty for your children beg for the breath that you won't give
And your boyfriend stands to wait all for you, drink up your wasted on me
Drink up your wasted
Drink up I'll wait
You're black ice on the road on a drunken summer night, but
I got your number, your name, and your will to fight
Will you be coming over? Will you be coming? Reckon you might.
I cannot care, I cannot care for you, I cannot bear to love you any less than you need
I cannot hold you, I cannot bear to lose the bruises that you leave
Drunk on love or anything so strong as to drive the blood to make way for more, for
More when you've forty-four left, forty for your children beg for the breath that you won't give
And your boyfriend stands to wait all for you, drink up your wasted on me
Drink up your wasted
Damned if I'm gonna lose it, damned if I'm gonna lose it
And you're runnin' low, (chink) in your glass and a knock at the door
What you looking at me for, what you looking at, me
I cannot hold you, I cannot bear to lose them bruises that you leave
Drunk on love or anything so strong as to drive the blood to make way for more, for
More when you've forty-four left, forty for your children beg for the breath that you won't give
And your boyfriend stands to wait all for you, drink up your wasted on me
Drink up your wasted
Drink up I'll wait

Where as you could see this as the person being sung about is drunk off of the singer. I think it's more so about the one being sung to is wasted on the singer. I thinks the last lyrics sum it up pretty well. "And your boyfriend stands to wait all for you, drink up you're wasted on me.
Tldr: Its about a potential S/O that they'd up dragging down, rather than grow with.
