Verse One - I've got a regular problem
		So my standard break from life is in order
		I'm having trouble making sentences
		I'm older but I don't feel any smarter
		You see I don't know what I said to you
		And now you're p**sed at you know who
		And I guess I deserve it
		I wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time

Verse Two -	I try to leave a good impression
		But it's hard when my obsession's in a wine glass
		And when you're only 23
		It's not attractive to complain about your sore back
		Yes I can b**ch until my eyes are blue
		And you're in bed with someone new
		And I guess you deserve him
		Wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time

Verse - 	I've got a motivation problem
		So my standard break from life is getting longer
		Spent over 30 hours in this bed
		In two days, I guess I could've phoned her
		But now that I'm awake
		I'd rather take a drink
		And walk down to the lake
		And beg the sky for lightning bolts
		I can't waste my time without wasting all your time
