"Waste Of Time" lyrics
"Waste Of Time"
I got a question, for all you sinners
Have you ever wondered is this all there is to life?
A quick adventure, not much to mention
A slow procession leading us to die
Is there a heaven, a distant valley
A golden meadow waiting for us in the sky?
No one right answer, spirit seems broken
Still I just can't help but wonder why
Seems like a tragic waste of time
Who cares what happens when you die?
Life's too short to wonder why
Get on with your life
In towering churches and holy temples
They all conspired to tell me how to live my life
But no religion or new theism
Could ever provide proof to quench my mind
And now I wonder whose sky I'm under
Is there a heaven waiting for me when I die?
No one right answer, spirit seems broken
Still I can't help but wonder why
Seems like a tragic waste of time
Who cares what happens when you die?
Life's too short to wonder why
Get on with your life
So many questions I can't tell the difference
Too many abstract thoughts now wrestle in my mind
Through the darkness somewhere should be waiting
A final truth to shower me with light
Their pearls of wisdom and tales of glory
They fed me nicely until I found it was all a lie
No one right answer, spirit seems broken
And still I can't help but wonder why
Seems like a tragic waste of time
Who cares what happens when you die?
Life's too short to wonder why
Get on with your life
Your life!

There's static on the radio

Propagandhi - "Head? Chest? Or Foot?" Three choices. One bullet. One trigger. Guess who gets to pull it.
One leader. A thousand slaves.
For every throne there's a thousand graves.
You're all the same. Just part of their machine....
