Lyrics:
I gotta tell you that he waited all his life
For someone like you to come make the wrong things right
I know he didn’t have the answers all the time
But you can’t tell me that you never told a lie
Chorus-
We’re almost twenty three and you’re still mad at me
So much that I said to you and I want to take it back now
Twenty three and it’s so sad to me
You tell the world I’m dead to you but I know you want me back now
Was it fun for you to watch him fall apart
And suffocate him while you held him in your arms
I swear to god I wish he never let you in
I just hope we never hear from you again
Chorus
Wasted on you, Wasted on you
Chorus
