Time isn't wasted at the end of the day When you're in bed thinking about all the things You could've done, You could've said, All the empty boxes left on your to do list
Time is wasted When you're standing on a rock at the edge of a waterhole And decide to not jump When you're sitting in your car trying to justify reasons For not going in When you anxiously hit backspace Instead of expressing how you truly feel When you ignore your heart that's screaming "You deserve better."
It's lost in I could have and I should have, In missed opportunities, In letting fears override judgement
Time is not necessarily wasted In passing minutes, months, years We waste time by Counting seconds, And by letting seconds pass When we could've made Those seconds count
