Wasted Hours

All those wasted hours we used to know

Spent the summer staring out the window

The wind it takes you where it wants to go

First they built the road, then they built the town

That's why we're still driving round and round

And all we see

Are kids in buses longing to be free

Wasted hours, before we knew

Where to go, and what to do

Wasted hours, that you made new

And turned into

A life that we can live

Some cities make you lose your head

Endless suburbs stretched out thin and dead

And what was that line you said

Wishing you were anywhere but here

You watch the life you're living disappear

And now I see

We're still kids in buses longing to be free

Wasted hours, before we knew

Where to go, and what to do

Wasted hours, that you made new

And turned into

A life that we can live
