I didn't mean to waste your time So I'll fall back in line But I'm warning you we're growing up

Artist- Brandi Carlile
Song of the day- Turpentine

I'm beginning my much needed education of Brandi Carlile before I see her this summer with some very educated megafans that by only after a few songs I can highly see why. And as you've noticed I like almost any song involving not sleeping even though the majority of that time in life and in songs is spent over thinking over analyzing over doubting over wishing and under dreaming, it's amazing how poetic that time can be till you wake back up to normal time and fall back in line again. So for those outside the lines tonight, this one's for you.



I watch you grow away from me in photographs
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again

These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up

I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
and there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again

These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up

We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't maen to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
