Waiting on something to change from the dugout
Behind all the pain
Never got me very far
I know that it's wrong

But I don't, want to
Drop the ball today
I'd rather stay in and hide away

Tide gets strong and washed you out
Take some time to figure it out
Four long months of grinding teeth
(I'll take the hate)
Still don't have the strength to leave
(I'll waste away)

I saw your window at 2 AM
And your light was still on
I found the letters that you wrote for me
And I couldn't bring myself to throw them away

Did she get some sleep tonight
Did she get with someone nice
That knows what you're thinking
Doesn't let it scare him
Yes, I'm changing, but
Now you're facing your fears

I'll waste away
I'll waste away
