Wasted Love

[Verse 1] It's easier to open up Once these drinks hit our veins Laugh about the good times we had But we'd cry through the pain 'Cause paradise was just around the corner But we'd broken down on Loneliness Lane And it wasn't like our mothers never warned us What would happen if we acted this way [Pre-Chorus] We were showing off the local girls by fighting in these streets Trying not to scuff up these new Nikes on our feet Never were the type of lads that liked to keep the peace So don't waste your love That's why I'm saying [Chorus] Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me [Verse 2] It's funny how we never open up to the ones that we love I wonder if our parents are proud of what we've become 'Cause none of us know how to show emotion They don't teach you that down Loneliness Lane So these heavy hearts of our sleeves are now broken But we're smiling if the drink is our veins [Pre-Chorus] We're still showing off the local girls by fighting in these streets Trying not to scuff up these new Nikes on our feet Never were the type of lads that liked to keep the peace So don't waste your love That's why I'm saying [Chorus] Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me [Bridge - Spoken Word] "You alright, Mister?" "Yeah" "Hey?" "Dada" "Dada. Where we going?" "Na" "Na?" "Na" "Yeah" Who's this?" "Dada" "And who's that there?" "Mama" "Mama, yeah" [Chorus] Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me Don't waste your love on me
