Such An Awful Waste

by As In Everyday

christian It is not a waste to listen to this entire cd. One of 2020’s best and becoming more special with time, accurately described by the band online as early 2000s Deep Elm style. Strong sound overall with the lyrics and vocals as high points, gets down like the kinder parts of “Last Days of April - Angel Youth.” An album that cares and worries for you. Favorite track: Rinse.

Aria 03:24
Aria You are the car ride home your father driving silently through forrest divided by road you pretend to sleep when you get home when you lost track of yourself I wondered how no one could tell when I lost myself I lost you Light streaks through train windows an artificial break between you and your home how much more could you take? when you lost track of yourself I wondered how no one could tell when I lost myself I lost you I know that this is hard enough for you but you must know that this is not enough this is not enough
2.
Run Away 03:30
Run Away run away, run away from everything you thought you knew and everyone who mislead you away, run away from all the things you thought you’d outgrown can’t escape, can’t escape from all these things keeping you awake so awake for what seems like days I hope you find what you’re looking for what are you looking for? (surely its not this) when the dust settles you’ll find yourself again and I know that we’ll be friends I’ve been wondering how you are and what it is you’re selling yourself for surely its not this
3.
I’m In Love With Today I’ve been trying myself and its been working well I’m in love with today but you’ve never known how tomorrow felt I’ve been trying myself and its been working well I’m in love with today but I’ve never known how tomorrow felt
4.
Rinse 03:24
Rinse I’ll pace around the block a few more times to shake this feeling, that I’m always wrong or sustain my ever present sense of shame I cant get this out rinse my doubt filled mouth if I knew better I’d let this go unfortunately for me, I won’t I’ll wait on your steps a few minutes to talk myself out of leaving right here and now work up the nerve to ring your bell, but wont calm myself down I can’t help myself never knew this would take so much of my energy just to be who you need me to be
5.
Don’t Mince Your Words heady heavy a weight on a neck that just can’t bear it I can’t break this cycle of former friends turned rivals and falling into my old ways my old ways and who you need me to be the sky and the sea are the same shade of green why old hearts go untouched left like unread books just gathering dust can you trust me now? when you usually can’t even manage to trust yourself who do you trust? I find myself searching for safety in the only honest moments that you gave me was all of this for nothing? couldnt you tell me? was all of this for nothing? you could have helped me but I can’t will you to be who you need to be (who you need to be) and I just want you to be fucking happy (I just want you to be) to be happy without me
6.
Center 04:40
Center I don’t have the strength to say this the words rolled tight between my throat and my lips I shouldn’t be afraid to tell you what you need to hear but for now I’m clenched in the grip of fear I break down everytime, everytime I break down everytime I so much as hear your name in passing I’m sorry that it had to come to this the weight of the words you said now pinned down and through my wrists light work for anyone but me or so it seems now I’m sure this won’t haunt me forever instead becoming the center of my dreams I break down everytime, everytime I break down everytime I so much as hear your name in passing This is the part where I tell you I’m not falling not falling apart but I wont do that simply because I can’t anymore
7.
Clothes To Dry camera whirs and faint lines across your skies but still you wonder what did they mean when they said we would have to wait? your body hangs like clothes to dry in the summer months proof of a smile left in the lines on your face oh the way you braced yourself for the weight this is not fair, I know! the plans you had were overshadowed could you blame god before yourself? maybe we were never owed anything
8.
Such an Awful Waste ran away from the stars lighting up your face to a better place if you could but wouldn’t it be such an awful waste if it were any other way you know it would I’ve been wasting time since I left you
