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
